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 75cm for gas or mixed cookers.
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).
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.
Installation - Fig. 5-6-7
Preliminary information for installing the hood
Assembling the deflector (Fig. 6 - 3 parts – only for 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.
During electrical connection ensure the power supply is disconnected at the domestic main switch.
1.Adjust extension of the hood support structure, as the final height of the hood depends on this, and remember that with installation completed the hood must be at least 50 cm above the
2.a. Fix the two sections of the structure using 8 screws.
b. If the hood is provided with extensions longer than the minimum, fit the reinforcement bracket S to the frame, using 4 screws.
3.Place the ceiling hole diagram directly above the
4.Drill as shown (6 holes for 6 wall plugs – 4 plugs for fixture), screw the outer screws leaving a space of about 1 cm. between the screw head and the ceiling.
5.Fit an exhaust pipe inside the truss and connect it to the motor
compartment connection ring (exhaust pipe and fixing brackets | 1 2 |
are not supplied). |
6 . Hook the frame onto the 4 screws (see step 4). CAUTION! The side of the truss with connection box corresponds to the side of the control panel with hood assembled.
7.Tighten the 4 screws.
8.Insert and tighten another 2 screws in the remaining free holes for secure fixing.
9.Carry out the electrical connection to the mains power supply, only turn on the power supply upon completion of assembly.
10.Hook the hood onto the truss, ensuring it fits properly – to hook the hood onto the truss partially tighten 4 screws (see also step 12).
11.Secure the hood to the truss using two screws; this will also help center the two sections.
12.Tighten the 4 screws securing the truss to the hood.
13.For extractor versions (13A), connect the other end of the exhaust pipe to the flue.
For filter versions (13F), fit deflector F to the truss and secure it to the bracket supplied using 4 screws, then connect the exhaust pipe to the connection ring located on the deflector.
14.Fit the nuts with fixing hooks supplied inside the top and bottom sections of the flues at the rectangular slots. A total of 10 nuts must be fitted.
15.Join the two top sections of the flue to cover the truss so that one of the slots on the sections is situated on the same side of the control panel and the other on the opposite side. Screw the two sections together with 4 screws (2 each side- see the plan diagram for joining the two sections).
16.Fix the top flue assembly to the truss, near the ceiling, with two screws (one each side).
17.Carry out electrical connection of control panel and bulbs. Warning! Make connections taking care to insert the connectors in the right way.
18.Join the two bottom sections of the flue covering the truss using 6 screws (3 each side, see the plan diagram for joining the two sections).
19.Insert the bottom section of the flue in its seat so that it completely covers the motor compartment and electrical connection box, then ensure it from inside the hood using two screws.
20.Apply the 2 tabs (supplied) to cover the fixing points of the bottom flue (CAUTION! THE BOTTOM FLUE TABS ARE THE NARROWER AND SHALLOWER ONES).
The wider and deeper tabs are those used for the top flue, and must be cut to size.
21.Turn the mains power on again at the central electrical panel and check for correct hood operation.
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.
