and respecting the distance from the ceiling indicated in Fig.2.
Connect the flange C to the air exhaust hole using a connection
pipe (Fig.4). Insert the upper flue into the lower flue and rest
above the frame. Extract the upper flue up to the bracket and
fix it with the screws B (Fig.3). To transform the hood from a
ducting version into a filtering version, ask your dealer for the
charcoal filters and follow the installation instructions.
• Filtering version:
Install the hood and the two flues as described in the para-
graph for installation of the hood in ducting version. To as-
semble the filtering flue refer to the instructions contained
in the kit. If the kit is not provided, order it from your dealer
as accessory. The filters must be applied to the suction unit
positioned inside the hood. They must be centred by turning
them 90 degrees until the stop catch is tripped (Fig.6).
USE AND MAINTENANCE
• We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on before
any food is cooked. We also recommend that the appliance is
left running for 15 minutes after the food is cooked, in order
to thoroughly eliminate all contaminated air. The effective
performance of the cooker hood depends on constant main-
tenance; the anti-grease filter and the active carbon filter both
require special attention.
• The anti-grease filter is responsible retaining the grease
particles suspended in the air, therefore it is subject to
clogging with variable frequency according to the use of the
appliance.
- To prevent the danger of possible fires, at least every 2
months one must wash the anti-grease filters by hand using
non-abrasive neutral liquid detergents or in the dishwasher
at low temperatures and on short cycles.
- After a few washes, colour alterations may occur. This does
not give the right to claim their replacement.
• The active carbon filters are used to purify the air that is
sent back into the room and its function s to mitigate the
unpleasant odours produced by cooking.
- The non-regenerable active carbon filters must be replaced
at least every 4 months. The saturation of the active charcoal
depends on the more or less prolonged use of the appliance,
on the type of kitchen and on the frequency with which anti-
grease filter is cleaned.
- Regenerable active charcoal filters must be washed by hand,
with non abrasive neutral detergents, or in the dishwasher at
a maximum temperature of 65°C (the washing cycle must be
complete without dishware). Remove excess water without
damaging the filter, remove the plastic parts, and let the mat
dry in the oven for at least 15 minutes approximately at a
maximum temperature of 100°C. To keep the regenerable
charcoal filter functioning efficient this operation must be
repeated every 2 months. These must be replaced at least
every 3 years or when the mat is damaged.
• Before remounting the anti-grease filters and the rege-
nerable active charcoal filters it is important that they are
completely dry.
• Clean the hood frequently, both internally and externally,
using a cloth dampened with denatured alcohol or neutral
liquid detergents that are non abrasive.
• The lighting .system is designed for use during cooking
and not for the prolonged general lighting of the room. The
prolonged use of the lighting system significantly decreases
the average duration of the bulbs.
• If the appliance is equipped with courtesy lights it is possible
to use them for general room lighting for a prolonged amount
of time.
• Attention: the non compliance with the hood cleaning
warnings and with the replacement and cleaning of the filters
entails risk of fires. One therefore recommends keeping to the
suggested instructions.
• Replacing halogen light bulbs (Fig.7):
To replace the halogen light bulbs B, remove the glass pane C
using a lever action on the relevant cracks. Replace the bulbs
with new ones of the same type. Caution: do not touch the
light bulb with bare hands.
• Commands (Fig.8) mechanical the key symbols are ex-
plained below:
A = LIGHT
B = OFF
C = SPEED I
D = SPEED II
E = SPEED III.
• If your appliance has been designed for use in habitations
supplied with acentralised suction device perform the follow-
ing operations:
- The switch controls opening and closure of a valve using
a thermoelectical device. By placing the switch in the ON
position, after a minute, the valve opens rotating 90° allow-
ing suction of the stale air. By placing the switch in the OFF
position, the valve closes after 100 seconds.

ALGEMEEN
Lees aandachtig de inhoud van deze handleiding. Hierin staan
belangrijke aanwijzingen voor een veilige installatie, gebruik
en onderhoud. Bewaar de handleiding om die later te kun-
nen raadplegen. Het toestel werd ontworpen in een versie
voor afzuiging (evacuatie van de lucht naar buiten - Afb.1B)
en voor filtering (recirculatie van de lucht binnen - Afb.1A) of
met externe motor (Afb.1C).
VEILIGHEIDSVOORSCHRIFTEN
1. Opletten indien tegelijkertijd een afzuigkap en een brander
of haard functioneren die afhankelijk zijn van de omgevings-
lucht en gevoed worden door een andere energiebron dan de
elektrische energie. De afzuigkap kan de lucht die de brander
of haard nodig heeft voor de verbranding aan de omgeving
onttrekken. De negatieve druk in de omgeving mag niet boven
de 4 Pa (4x10-5 bar) liggen. Voor een veilige werking dient u te
zorgen voor een goede ventilatie van de ruimte. Voor de afvoer
naar buiten moet u zich houden aan de geldende voorschriften
die van toepassing zijn in uw land.
Voordat u het model op het elektriciteitsnet aansluit:
- Controleer op het gegevensplaatje (aan de binnenkant van
het apparaat) of de spanning en het vermogen overeenko-
men met die van het net, en of de stekker geschikt is voor
de aansluiting. Neem in geval van twijfel contact op met een
gekwalificeerde elektricien.
- Als de voedingskabel beschadigd is dient deze te worden
vervangen door een andere kabel of een speciale kabel-
combinatie, beschikbaar bij de fabrikant of de technische
servicedienst.
