Instruction on mounting and use
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.
Use
The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter version.
Ducting version
The hood is equipped with a top air outlet B for discharge of fumes to the outside (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not
provided). Filter version
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).
To switch from “Vented” to “Ventless” operation, contact your retailer or the manufacturer for the relevant assembly kit.
The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting mode, and must be connected to an external suction device (not supplied).
Installation
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 60cm from electric cookers and 65cm from gas or mixed cookers.
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.
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) or is not easily accessible, place a standards approved bipolar switch that provide full disconnection under overvoltage category III conditions, in accordance with the wiring rules.
Attention: substituting the supply cable must be carried out by the authorised technical assistance service.
Mounting
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.
For transportation reasons the upper flue and the lattice girder are temporarily fixed together with two screws A (fig. 5). These must be removed and conserved.
Attention! This product envisages a series of installation operations involving special electric cable connections. Always check during installation that the passage of these cables avoids any possible damage to them:
1.Before attaching the hood to the ceiling you need to decide whether to use the hood in the filtering or suction version.
The following operations need to be carried out if you choose the filtering version:
Mount one of the supplied connection rings on deflector F (Fig. 6) (in any case, the one without
Note: Mount the connection ring so that the circular hole is central with respect to the deflector.
Mount deflector F on the upper brackets of the lattice girder with 4 screws.
2.Remove the 2 C screws (Fig. 1) that temporarily fix the two parts of the lattice girder together.
Adjust the extension of lattice girder “L”, according to the following formula:
L = h - (d+44cm) Where:
L= lattice girder extension,
h = distance between the ceiling and the support surfaces of the cooking device containers.
d= distance between the lower park of the hood and the support surfaces of the cooking device containers. Attention! RESPECT THE MINIMUM DISTANCES INDICATED IN THIS INSTRUCTIONS BOOKLET.
Fix the lattice girder with the 8 D screws (Fig. 1).
3.Place supplied template E (Fig. 1) onto the ceiling and make the holes indicated and also prepare the area for electrical connection.
The side with the arrow on the template corresponds to the front part of the hood (commands side).
For the suction version only: make the outlet for the discharge tube and install a tube of sufficient length to reach the connection ring on the hood motor, when this is installed.
Insert 4 dowels.
4.Mount the lattice girder onto the ceiling and fix with 4 screws and washers I (Fig. 1).
Attention! The lattice girder has a side: the front is the part without the hooking fold (see also Fig. 1).
5.Mount the B connection ring (Fig. 1), with the
Note: Mount the connection ring so that the circular hole
