Hood installation on walls (look for the symbol in
Warning: consult local regulations regarding fumes outlets. Do not
connect the hood to a fume, ventilation or hot air duct. Confirm that
room ventilation is appropriate with the local authorities. Make sure
the maximum air extraction flow rate for the appliances in the room does
not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).The room must have adequate ventilation if an
extractor hood is used simultaneously with appliances that run on gas or other
fuels. The evacuated air must be extracted through ducts that are used for
evacuating fumes from appliances that run on gas or other fuels. Regulations
regarding air extraction must be complied with.
INSTALLATION
The hood may be installed to work in two different ways: If there is a possibility
of installing the hood with an evacuation pipe to the outside, it will be used in
aspirating version. If this possibility does not exist, the hood will be used in the
filtering version, 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).
Connecting the hood to the grid
Warning: before connecting the hood: switch off the electricity supply
and check that the supplied voltage and frequency coincide with that
indicated on the appliance nameplate.
If the extractor hood has a plug, connect it to a power socket in line with
applicable regulations, located in an accessible area.
If the hood does not have a plug, connect it directly to the electrical grid,
protected by a separator device accessible for disconnection, in line with local
regulations.
Use of the hood – Safety

(e. g. lightning). This involves no risk of damage. Switch off the electricity
supply to the hood and reconnect after one minute.
