Use

The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter version.

Ducting version

The cooker hood is provided with an upper air exit B for discharging fumes externally for models including chimney flue C ( Suction Version A- exhaust pipe 13A not supplied).

Filter version

If cooking fumes and vapours cannot be externally discharged even if using the model with chimney flue C, the cooker hood can be used in the recirculating version F: the installation of two active carbon filters E allows the recirculation of fumes and vapours through the upper grid G.

According to the specific model the recirculating grids can be already stamped on the flue or must be mounted on the two lateral sides of the flue (16F).

If the flue is pre-stamped the two parts O extensions must be placed on the deflector 13F.

Warning! Part O not required with models that are supplied with 2 specially designed plastic recirculating grills - Parts 16F.

Installation

The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 60cm from electric cookers and 70cm 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 mains power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided with a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current regulations and positioned in an accessible area, after installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not located in an accessible area, after installation, apply a double pole switch in accordance with standards which assures the complete disconnection of the mains under conditions relating to over-current category III, in accordance with installation instructions.

Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and checking the efficient function, always check that the mains cable is correctly assembled.

Warning! Power cable replacement must be undertaken by the authorised service assistance centre or similar qualified person.

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.
