a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current
regulations and positioned in an accessible area. If it not fitted
with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not
located in an accessible area apply a double pole switch in
accordance with standards which assures the complete
disconnection of the mains under conditions relating to over-
current category III, in accordance with installation
instructions.
Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains
supply and checking the efficient function, always check that
the mains cable is correctly assembled.
Mounting
Before beginning installation:
• Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for
the chosen installation area.
• To facilitate installation, remove the fat filters and the
other parts allowed and described here, dismantle and
mount it.
To remove see also the relative paragraphs.
• Remove the active carbon (*) filter/s if supplied (see also
relative paragraph). This/these is/are to be mounted only
if you want lo use the hood in the filtering version.
• Check (for transport reasons) that there is no other
supplied material inside the hood (e.g. packets with
screws (*), guarantees (*), etc.), eventually removing
them and keeping them.
• If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in
range from cabinet opening to provide easier access to
rear wall/ceiling. Otherwise put a thick, protective
covering over countertop, cooktop or range to protect
from damage and debris. Select a flat surface for
assembling the unit. Cover that surface with a protective
covering and place all canopy hood parts and hardware
in it.
• Disconnect the hood during electrical connection, by
turning the home mains switch off.
• In addition check whether near the installation area of the
hood (in the area accessible also with the hood mounted)
an electric socket is available and it is possible to
connect a fumes discharge device to the outside (only
suction version).
• Carry out all the masonry work necessary (e.g.
installation of an electric socket and/or a hole for the
passage of the discharge tube).
Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most
types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must
verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of
wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to take
the weight of the hood. Do not tile, grout or silicone this
appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.

correspond to the centre line drawn on the wall, and the
bottom edge of the drilling template must correspond to
the bottom edge of the hood.
3. Place the lower support bracket on the perforation
diagram making it coincide with the traced triangle, mark
the two external holes and perforate.
Note: Always make the holes indicated on the template.
The upper 2 are for hooking the hood up while the lower
holes (generally 1 central or more lateral) are for the
definitive and safety fixing.
Remove the perforation diagram, insert the wall-dowels
and fix the support bracket of the hood with two 5x45 mm
screws.
4. Apply the flues support bracket G to the wall adherent to
the ceiling, use the flues support bracket as a perforation
diagram (if present, the small slot on the support must
coincide with the line drawn previously on the wall) and
mark two holes with a pencil. Make the holes (Ø8mm),
and insert 2 dowels.
5. Fix the chimney support bracket to the wall using two
5x45mm screws.
6. Hang the hood onto the lower bracket.
7. Adjust the distance of the hood from the wall.
8. Adjust the horizontal position of the hood.
9. Fix the hood into its final position on the wall
(ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL).
10. Connect a pipe (pipe and pipe clamps not provided, to be
purchased separately) for discharge of fumes to the
connection ring located over the suction motor unit.
If the hood is to be used in ducting version, the other end
of the pipe must be connected to a device expelling the
fumes to the outside. If the hood is to be used in filter
version, then fix the deflector F to the chimney support
bracket G and connect the other extremity of the pipe to
the connection ring placed on the deflector F.
11. Connect the electricity.
12. Apply the chimney stacks and fasten them at the top to
the chimney support „G" (12b) using 2 screws (12a)
13. Slide the bottom section of the chimney down until it
completely covers the suction unit and slots into the
housing provided on top of the hood.
Remount the carbon filter frame and the fat/s filter/s and check
the perfect functioning of the hood.
