recirculating the air using active carbon filters.
Aspiration: If the hood is used in the ASPIRATING version, connect the plastic conic
outlet piece supplied with the hood (125 mm diameter) to an evacuation pipe
connected directly to the outside We recommend the use of a 125 mm. diameter pipe
for better hood performance and lower noise levels.
Filter: This hood can be transformed into an air filter if there is no possibility of
connecting it to the outside. In this case, the air circulates through opening which you
must drill into the furniture. In order to operate as an air filter, you must use two active
carbon filters which are supplied as separate accessories. The active carbon filters
must be replaced periodically in order to work properly, at least every three months
(depending on how frequency the filter is used)
Mounting and fastening to the furniture
– The accessories needed to install the hood are located inside the hood.
– The hood must be installed at least 66 cm. from the stovetop.
– The screws needed to fasten the hood are contained in the bag of accessories
which comes with the hood. (Fig. 2).
Hood maintenance
Warning: always switch off the electricity supply before carrying out maintenance
work on the hood. In the event of a fault, contact an official distributor or authorised
dealer.
Cleaning the outside: use liquid, non-corrosive detergent and avoid using abrasive
cleaning products and solvents.
Do not use high-pressure or steam cleaning devices.
Grease filters (Fig. 5): to avoid fires, clean thoroughly once a month or whenever the
display pilot light indicates as such. To do so, remove the filters and wash with hot
water and detergent. If using a dishwasher (metal parts may turn black without this
affecting their functional capacity), load the filters vertically to avoid solid residue from
being deposited.
Activated charcoal filters: replace the every 3 months.
Important: increase the filter cleaning/replacement frequency if the hood is used for
more than 2 hours a day. Always use genuine filters from the manufacturer.
Bulb replacement (Fig.6)
Warning: do not handle the bulbs until the electricity supply has been switched off
and they have cooled.
Important: use new bulbs according to that indicated on the hood nameplate.
If using LED lighting, do not look directly at the light.
Use bulbs with an aluminium reflector to replace halogen bulbs. Do not use dichroic
bulbs - risk of overheating.
For LED lamp replacements, please contact Technical Support or the distributor of
the brand.
In case of possible failure, before calling the technical service, check the following

Cause / Solution
A change may be necessary, but first check that
the lamp is correctly positioned and that the
contact is correct. Remember that lamps are not
covered by the warranty. Disconnect the current
hood before handling the lamps. Use lamps with
the same properties described on the nameplate.
It is advisable to use lamps supplied by the
manufacturer of the hood.
The selected speed is too low / Select a higher
speed
Check the Metallic Filter (grease filter). If it has
not been washed recently, it may be clogged
with grease or dirt. Disassemble and wash it
in hot water and detergent, and let it dry before
reassembling again.
Ensure that the air outlet tube has not been
obstructed.
If you are using the hood in recirculation mode, the
Active Carbon Filter must be replaced.
Check that the hood is connected to power.
Check that the fuses or automatic have not
jumped.
If, after having checked the points mentioned
above, your problem has not yet been solved,
contact the technical service or your distributor.
