INSTALLATION
Consult Fig.1A on page 4 of this manual, referenced in the text by alphabet letters. Closely follow the instructions set out in this manual. All liability, for any inconvenience, damage 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 60 cm from the hob top for electric cookers and 75cm for gas or mixed cookers.
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 onto 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 extraction motor only operate in ducting mode, and must be connected to an external extraction
device (not | supplied). |

| |
Preliminary information for installation of the hood: |
| |||
Disconnect the hood during electrical connection, by turning the home mains switch off. |
| |||
First | decide | which functioning | version is better for you. |
|
If you decide | to use the hood | in ducting version we suggest you position the upper section | of the chimney so that | |
the oulet slots are not visible once installation has ended. If it is decided to use the hood in | filter version BE SURE | |||
that | the side with slots is up (see also |
| ||
- | Rest the extraction unit on a flat surface and thread the lower part of the hood onto it (remove the grease filters). | |||
- | Make all the electrical connections between the two parts. |
| ||
- | Fasten | the hood to the | extraction unit using 4 screws. |
|
-Using a pencil, draw a line on the wall, extending up to the ceiling, to mark the centre. This will facilitate installation.
-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 60 cm above the hob top in the case of electric cookers, and at least 75 cm above the cooker top in the case of gas or mixed cookers.
-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. |
-Hang the hood on the bracket.
- | Adjust | the | distance of the hood | from | the wall. |
- | Adjust | the | horizontal position of | the | hood. |
-From inside the extraction unit, use a pencil to mark the hole (4 holes) to be used for final fixing of the hood.
Remove the hood from the bracket. Drill at the points marked (2 x Ø8mm) (see operation 10).
-Insert 1 wall plug.
-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 4) | and | mark | 2 holes | with a | pencil, dril | the holes (Ø8mm), | insert 2 wall plugs. | |
Fix the chimney support | bracket | to | the | wall using | two 5x45mm screws. | ||||
-Hook the hood onto the bottom bracket.
- | Fix the hood into its final position on the | wall using | 4 | 5x45mm screws (ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL). | ||||
- | Connect a pipe (pipe and pipe clamps not | provided, | to | be purchased separately) for | discharge of fumes. | |||
| If the hood is to be used in the ducted 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, fix deflector F to the chimney support bracket | |||||
| G using 4 screws, and connect the other end of the pipe | to the connection ring on deflector F (if dismantled, | ||||||
- | the connection ring must be | the | deflector and locked in | position | using | 1 screw). | ||
Make the electrical connections (see next | page). |

| |
- | Apply the chimney stacks and fasten them | at the | top | to | the chimney support | G(20b) | using | 2 screws (20a). |
-Slide the bottom section of the chimney down until it completely covers the extraction unit and slots into the
housing provided on top of the hood.
-Fasten the bottom section of the chimney with 2 screws.
Refit the grease filter/s and check that the hood is operating correctly.
