Consult the designs in the front pages referenced in the text by alphabet letters. Closely follow the instructions set out in this manual.All responsibility, for any eventual inconveniences, damages or fires caused by not complying with the instructions in this manual, is declined.
The cooker hood must be placed at a minimum distance of 50 cm from the cooking plane for electric cookers and 65cm for gas or mixed cookers.
If the appliance is installed above a gas cooking device with installation instructions specifying a greater clearance, you must take this into account.
Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.
The hood is equipped with a top air outlet B for discharge of fumes to the outside (Ducting version – exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not provided).
Should it not be possible to discharge cooking fumes and vapour to the outside, the hood can be used in the filter version, fitting an activated carbon filter and the deflector F
on the support (bracket) G, fumes and vapours are recycled through the top grille H by means of an exhaust pipe connected to the top air outlet B and the connection ring mounted on the deflector F (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not provided).
The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting mode, and must be connected to an external suction device (not supplied).
Installation - Fig. 4
Preliminary information for installation of the hood: Disconnect the hood during electrical connection, by turning the home mains switch off. 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.
Do not fix chimney flue to furniture or fly over shelves unless the chimney flue can be easily removed, in case maintenance is ever required.
Where foreseen remove the grease collecting panels. Remove the grease filter/s
Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only. Do not fix chimney flue to furniture or fly over shelves unless the chimney flue can be easily removed, in case maintenance is ever required.
Assembling the chimney flue support/bracket (3 parts):
The three parts should be fixed with 4 screws, the support extension 6 is adjustable and should correspond to the internal width of the
telescopic chimney flue.
Assembling the deflector (only when a deflector composed of 3 parts is supplied – the deflector should be only for the filter version):
The three parts should be fixed with 2 screws, the deflector extension is adjustable and should correspond to the width of the chimney flue support, to which it is then fixed.
1.Using a pencil, draw a line on the wall, extending up to the ceiling, to mark the centre. This will facilitate installation.
2.Rest the drilling template against the wall: the vertical centre line printed on the drilling template must 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: bear in mind that, when installation is complete, the underside of the hood must be at least 50 cm above the cooker top in the case of electric cookers, and at least 65 cm above the cooker top in the case of gas or mixed cookers.
3.Rest the support bracket on the drilling template so that it coincides with the dotted rectangle, mark the two outer holes and drill them, remove the drilling template, insert 2 wall plugs and fix the hood support bracket into place using two 5x45mm screws.
4.Hang the hood on the bracket.
5.Adjust the distance of the hood from the wall.
6.Adjust the horizontal position of the hood.
7.Using a pencil mark the cooker hood permanent drill hole inside the suction group (two drill holes are necessary for fastening).
8.Remove the hood from the bracket.
9.Drill at the point marked (Ø8mm - see operation 7).
10.Insert 2 wall plugs.
11.Rest the chimney support bracket „G“ against the wall, touching the ceiling. Use the support bracket as a drilling template (the small slot formed on the support must coincide with the line drawn on the wall as above – operation 1) and mark 2 holes with a pencil, drill the holes (Ø8mm), insert 2 wall plugs.
12.Fix the chimney support bracket to the wall using two 5x45mm screws.
13.Hook the hood onto the bottom bracket.
14.Fix the hood into its final position on the wall (ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL).
15.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.
16.Make the electrical connections.
17.Apply the chimney stacks and fasten them at the top to the chimney support „G“ (17b) using 2 screws (17a).
18.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.
Replace the grease filter/s (and where foreseen the grease collecting panels) and check that the hood is operating correctly.
Electrical connection
The electrical tension must correspond to the tension noted on the label placed inside the cooker hood. Connect the electrical plug, where provided, to the an easily accessible outlet in conformity with local standards in force.
Where an electrical plug is not provided (for direct connection to electrical network) place a standards approved bipolar switch with an aperture distance of not less than 3mm (accessible) from the contacts.
