CORRECT POSITIONING
The hood should be placed at a minimum distance of
65 cm (25.59”) for the wall-mounted models and 75 cm
(29.53”) for the island/roof models. It could be that Your
specic hob requires the range hood to be placed at a
greater distance: always refer to the manufacturer’s
instructions handbook for further information.
The installation site must:
- comply with all the applicable regulation from the
User’s country in terms of indoor air quality, electrical sy-
stem security and work safety;
- be suitable for the preparation of food.
For correct installation, refer to the drawings
on page 18 to 26.
The equipment must be installed in a way that
ensures easy access to electric connections.
Do not use any electric wire or other electric
devices to extend the original power cord. Please
inspect the existing wall sockets or power cords
of your kitchen and place the hood accordingly;
The fastening kit (screws and plugs) supplied with
the hood can only be used on masonry wall.
For installation on other types of walls consider
alternative fastening systems, taking into ac-
count the strength of the wall and the weight of
the hood.
Do not place the equipment near ammable
materials or ammable substance containers
(e.g. partition walls, gas cylinders, etc.), to
avoid re hazards.
All the installation operations, assembly,
connection to the electric power supply and
extraordinary maintenance must only be carried
out by qualied personnel, authorised by the
Distributor or Manufacturer, in accordance with
the legal requirements of the country of installa-
tion and in compliance with equipment and
workplace safety regulations.
The equipment must only be installed by
responsible and experienced adults, without
physical impairment and in perfect
psychological
and physical condition.
During installation, anyone and any objects not
involved in the assembly operations must be
kept away from the area.
Before starting the assembly operations, make
sure that all the necessary tools are available
and in good working order.
ELECTRIC CONNECTION
The electric connection can only be carried
out by qualied personnel (electrician).
The cable and the internal hood cables must
not be replaced or modied.
Before connecting the equipment to the power
mains:
- read the safety instructions provided at the be-
ginning of this manual;
- make sure that the electric system installed complies
with the local regulations of the country of installation;
- make sure that the electric system installed is suitable
for the characteristics of the equipment being installed
(see the details on the data plate).
Refer to chapter “How to read product label” on
page 29 for further information on the data
plate.
Always install a circuit breaker for quick discon-
nection. The earth cable must be not interrupted
by the circuit breaker.
If the power cord is faulty, it should be replaced with
another one with identical features. To prevent all kinds
of risks, such replacement must be carried out by the
Manufacturer, its technical support service, or in any
case by a similarly qualied individual.
The Manufacturer is not liable for any damage resulting
from the use of unauthorized or aftermarket spares.
Before any interventions inside the hood, disconnect the
electric power supply.
Avoid winding the cable on itself if too long.
Make sure that the cable is not in contact with
liquids, sharp or hot objects (temperatures exce-
eding >70°C - 158°F), or corrosive substances.
