aforementioned measures.
•When the hood is used in its extraction mode, the following rules must be followed to obtain optimal operation:
-short and straight outlet hose
-keep bends in outlet hose to a minimum
-never install the hoses with an acute angle, they must always follow a gentle curve.
-keep the hose as large as possible (preferably the same diameter as the outlet hole).
-the length should be no more than:
3 metres with one 90° bend
2 metres with two 90° bends
Bends of more than 90° will reduce the efficiency of the hood and reduce the airflow.
•Failure to observe these basic instructions will drastically reduce the performance and increase the noise levels of the extractor hood.
