Installation Use and Care

ues, and air ducts serving the room. Before
venting into exhaust ues and ducts no
longer in use, ask for approval of person or
agency responsable for the building. The
evacuated air must not be let into a warm
airduct. For the evacuation of the exhausted
air please note ocial instructions.
INSTALLATION
The hood may be in ltering or in ducting
version (see A-B-C pag.2). Decide from the
outset which type is to be installed. For bet-
ter eciency, we recommend installing the
hood in the ducting version (if possible).
FILTERING VERSION (A)
The hood puries the air and
recycles the clean air backb into
the room. For this version, the
following is required: a theft-proof
cover, a reducer and charcoal lter.
In the version with ue, the upper
ue must have the air evacuation
slots positioned in the upper part
and the deector must be used in
place of the anti-theft cover. The
upper ue air evacuation slots must
be positioned at the top.
DUCTING VERSION (B) (C)
The hood puries the air and eva-
cuates it to the outside through an
exhaust duct or hole (diameter 150
mm).

AIR VENT
(for ducting versions)
! Prepare the hole and the air vent duct
(150 mm diameter - not provided with the
product).
! Use a duct of the minimum indispensible
length.
! Use a duct with as few elbows as possible
(maximum elbow angle: 90°).
! Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-
section.
! Use a duct with an as smooth as possible
inside.
! The duct must be made of certied mate-
rial.
! Do not connect the hood to smoke exhaust
ducts for the products of combustion (boi-
lers, replaces, stoves, etc).
! For the air vents comply with the pro-
visions laid down by the competent au-
thorities. In addition, the air must not be
evacuated through a hole in the wall unless
specically intended for this purpose.
! Fit air intakes in the room to prevent the
hood from creating a negative pressure
in the room (which must not exceed 0.04
mbar); if the hood is used at the same time
as non-electrical equipment (gas-, oil- and
charcoal-red stoves, etc.) the exhaust gas
may be sucked in by the heat source.
ASSEMBLY
! WARNING: Very heavy product; hood
handling and installation must be carried
out by at least two persons.
! WARNING: Wear gloves and goggles when
carrying out installation and maintenance
operations.
! WARNING: Failure to install the screws
or xing device in accordance with these
instructions may result in electrical hazards.
!The minimum distance between the sup-
porting surface for the cooking equipment
on the hob and the lowest part of the range
hood must be not less than 65 cm from elec-
tric cookers and 75 cm from gas or mixed
cookers. If the instructions for installation
for the gas hob specify a greater distance,
this must be adhered to.
! Expansion wall plugs are provided to secu-
re the hood to most types of walls/ceilings.
However, a qualied 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.
! In case of doubt, consult an authorised
service assistance centre or similar qualied
person.
