Use
The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter
version.
Extraction version
In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the building by
means of a special pipe connected with the connection ring
located on top of the hood.
CAUTION!
The exhausting pipe is not supplied and must be purchased
apart.
Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to that of the
connection ring.
CAUTION!
If the hood is supplied with active charcoal filter, then it must
be removed.
Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a
diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connection flange).
Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller
dimensions will cause a diminution of the suction performance
and a drastic increase in noise.
Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.
!
Use a duct of the minimum indispensable length.
!
Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum
elbow angle: 90°).
!
Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section.
Filtration version
The aspirated air will be degreased and deodorised before
being fed back into the room.
In order to use the hood in this version, you have to install a
system of additional filtering based on activated charcoal.
Installation
Specialised personnel must carry out both the electrical
and the mechanical installation.
Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist
or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be
constructed.
Fittings material is 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.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
Hood installation height above cooktop is the users
preference. The lower the hood is above the cooktop, the
more efficient the capturing of cooking odors, grease and
smoke.
CAUTION:
FOR GAS RANGES INSTALLATION:
MOUNT THIS HOOD SO THAT THE BOTTOM EDGE
IS AT 30" (76,2 CM) ABOVE THE COOKING
SURFACE.
FOR ELECTRIC RANGES INSTALLATION: MOUNT
THIS HOOD SO THAT THE BOTTOM EDGE IS NOT
LESS THAN 30" (76,2 CM) ABOVE THE COOKING
SURFACE.
HOUSEHOLD USE. PLEASE, READ INSTALLATION
MANUAL FOR SPECIFIC APPLICATION.
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a
greater distance, this must be adhered to.
Check your ceiling height and the hood height
maximum before you select your hood.
Consult last pages of this manual for installation
instruction and electrical connection steps.
