Operation Manual
- 18 -
omnipolar switch with 3 mm minimum opening between con-
tacts must be fitted between the appliance and the electricity
supply in compliance with the load and current regulations.
- The connection to the mains is carried out as follows:
BROWN = L line
BLUE = N neutral.
The minimum distance between the support surfaces of
the cooking pots on the cooker top and the lowest part of
the cooker hood must be at least 65 cm. If a connection tube
composed of two parts is used, the upper part must be pla-
ced outside the lower part. Do not connect the cooker hood
exhaust to the same conductor used to circulate hot air or for
evacuating fumes from other appliances generated by other
than an electrical source.
- In the case of assembly of the appliance in the suction version
prepare the hole for evacuation of the air.
We recommend the use of an air exhaust tube which has the
same diameter as the air exhaust outlet hole. If a pipe with a
smaller diameter is used, the efficiency of the product may be
reduced and its operation may become noisier.
The following instruction should be followed to carry out the
correct installation of the cooker hood.
1. Mounting of the cooker hood on the lower side of the
cupboard.
2. Choosing the version (extractor, Fig.1A, or filter, Fig.1B).
This type of appliance must be fitted inside a cabinet or inside
another type of support structure. The overall measurements
of the cooker hood are given in figure 2. Before proceeding
with cooker hood installation, remove grille D by pressing the
two side buttons A, as shown in figure 3. Fix the appliance in
place using 8 screws (not supplied) which are suited to the
type of cabinet. To install the cooker hood correctly, first fit
the 4 screws A and then the 4 screws B, in accordance with
the diagram in figure 4. After fixing the cooker hood to the
lower part of the cabinet, place grille D (Fig.4) back in the
correct position. During this procedure, make sure that grille
D is fastened properly.
The appliance expels the fumes through an outside wall or
a duct. It is necessary to buy a telescopic pipe in accordance
with the standards in use (inflammable) and connect it to
flange H (Fig.1A).
To transform an extractor hood version into a filter hood
version, contact your appliance dealer and ask for active
charcoal filters. The filters should be fitted to the extraction
assembly inside the hood, by centring them and rotating them
90 degrees, until they click into place (Fig.6). To perform this
operation, first remove grille D (Fig.3). The air is released back
into the room through air exhaust piping which passes through
the cabinet and is connected to flange H (Fig.1B).
USE AND MAINTENANCE
We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on before
any food is cooked. We also recommend that the appliance is
left running for 15 minutes after the food is cooked, in order
to thoroughly eliminate all contaminated air. The effective
performance of the cooker hood depends on constant main-
tenance; the anti-grease filter and the active carbon filter both
require special attention.
is responsible retaining the grease
particles suspended in the air, therefore it is subject to clogging
with variable frequency according to the use of the appliance.
- To prevent the danger of possible fires, at least every 2
months one must wash the anti-grease filters by hand using
non-abrasive neutral liquid detergents or in the dishwasher
at low temperatures and on short cycles.
- In the event that acrylic anti-grease filters are used, hand-
wash every 2 months, using neutral non-abrasive liquid
detergents and replace them after every 6 washes.
- After a few washes, colour alterations may occur. This does
not give the right to claim their replacement.
are used to purify the air that is
sent back into the room and its function is to mitigate the
unpleasant odours produced by cooking.
- The non-regenerable active carbon filters must be replaced
at least every 4 months. The saturation of the active charcoal
depends on the more or less prolonged use of the appliance,
on the type of kitchen and on the frequency with which anti-
grease filter is cleaned.

using a cloth dampened with water or non-abrasive neutral
liquid detergents.
The lighting .system is designed for use during cooking
and not for the prolonged general lighting of the room. The
prolonged use of the lighting system significantly decreases
the average duration of the bulbs.
the non compliance with the hood cleaning
warnings and with the replacement and cleaning of the filters
entails risk of fires. One therefore recommends keeping to the
suggested instructions.
To replace the aluminium panels, simply pull handle A as
shown in Fig.4B.
To replace the acrylic or metal panels, first remove grille D by
pressing the two side buttons A, as shown in figure 3. Remove
the two filter clips B (Fig.5) and the acrylic or metal panel C. To
reassemble the part, simply perform the procedure in reverse.
To replace the halogen lamps B, from the inside of the cooker
hood press downwards with two fingers as shown in Fig.7.
Replace the bulbs with new ones of the same type.
Only use lamps of the same type and Wattage installed on
the device.
