Installation Manual

The present instruction manual is an integral part of the appliance itself, therefore it must be carefully kept and ALWAYS accompany it, even in case of its assignment to
another owner or user or in case the cooker hood is moved to another installation plant.
Make sure that the voltage (V) and frequency (Hz) indicated on the data plate inside the unit match those available at the installation site. Any eventual adjustment to the
electrical system, which may be necessary to install the cooker hood, must be carried out only by competent people.
Any repair carried out by no competent people may cause damages.
For any repair or needed technical action make reference to a Technical Assistance Centre, which is authorized to carry out the replacement of the spare parts. Always
make sure that all the electrical parts (lights, exhaustion unit) are disconnected when the appliance is not in use. By storms take off the main switch of the house electrical
system or if the device is equipped with a plug, simply unplug it from the mains socket
The using of the cooker hood must not be other than the use of exhausting units for cooking damps on domestic kitchens.
The manufacturer does not accept any liability for damages caused by people, animals or things, by installation and maintenance mistakes or by any illegitimate use.
We remind that the use of products functioning with electrical energy implies the observance of some essential security rules, as follows:
• This equipment is not intended for people (children included) with reduced mental or motor capacities, with lack of experience or knowledge, unless they are supervised
or unless a person responsible for their security, gives them instructions regarding the use of the equipment. Children must be supervised in order to be sure that they do
not play with the equipment.
• Any cleaning action is forbidden if the appliance hasn’t been disconnected from the main power supply and if the main switch of the house electrical system is not off
or if the device is equipped with a plug, simply unplug it from the mains socket. If cleaning is not carried out according to these instructions, a fire may break out.
• Do not pull, take off or twist the cable coming out from the appliance, even though this has been disconnected from the main power supply.
• Do not sprinkle or throw any water directly on the appliance.
• Do not stick any sharp tool inside the exhausting holes and into the air discharge.
• Do not take out the filters in order to reach the internal sides of the appliance in case the main switch of the house electrical system is not off.
• Do not singe or flambé directly underneath the cooker hood. Take particular care when frying to ensure that the oil does not catch fire.
• CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.
• It is forbidden to use the hood as a support surface unless it is expressly indicated.
• Only use the fixing screws supplied with the product for installation.
USE
This cooker hood can be employed as exhausting or filtering.
Exhausting (external evacuation – Fig. 1A). Remove any activated carbon filters if present. Kitchen smokes are driven outside through a flue (not provided with the hood)
joined to the exhaust pipe flue connector. This pipe must not under any circumstances be connected to cooker, boiler or burner exhaust pipes, etc.
The use of pipes and holes on the wall with a smaller diameter than the output of the motor will cause a decrease in suction performance and an increase of the noise
level.
Use as short as possible tubes and with few curves. Use pipes with smooth internal surfaces.
Filtering (inside recycling – Fig. 1F). The fumes pass through activated carbon filters (available as an accessory) to be purified and recycled into the kitchen.
INSTALLATION
Read the instruction manual before installing and/or using the hood. The minimum distance between the supporting surface of the cooking hob and the lowest part of the
range hood must be not less than 26in (65cm) with a gas hob. If the mounting instructions of the gas hob indicate a wider distance, respect it.
It must not be superimposed on stoves with an upper radiating plate.
Respect all the air discharge regulations.
The air must not be discharged in a pipe used to discharge exhaust fumes produced by gas-fed equipment or fuel-fed equipment (this does not apply to filtering hoods).
The room must be adequately ventilated when the hoods is used together with other gas or fuel equipment.
The hood placed above an induction hob can cause condensation, this is a normal phenomenon and not due to malfunctioning of the product.
For an easy access, it is advisable to move possible furniture under the installation area.
The hood is equipped with all the necessary fastenings for its installation, which are suitable for most surfaces. Verify that the installation surface is strong.
Installation must be carried out by qualified installers according to present regulations.
Before proceeding with the installation, turn the main switch of the system to "off".
Follow the hood assembly instructions indicated below:
MOD. CANOPY WALL
After having traced and drilled the wall as in Fig.4, use the fixings necessary for installation:
A) Suspension and leveling blocks
B) Locking anchors
C) Wall fixing bracket and chimney screws
Connect the hood electrically.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This equipment must be connected to a grounding plant.
Two types of electrical connection can be used:
1. Using a standard plug to be connected to the power cable and inserted in a mains socket which must be accessible (so that the plug can be disconnected when servicing
is carried out). Make sure that the plug is accessible also after the complete installation of the equipment.
2. By means of a fixed mains connection, fitting a bipolar switch, which ensures the disconnection, with an opening distance of the contacts allowing a complete
disconnection on the conditions of the overvoltage III category, according to installation regulations. The ground connection (yellow-green wire) must not be interrupted.
Refer to the plate inside the hood for the mains voltage and frequency ratings. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or by its service
agent or a qualified person in order to avoid any risk.
OPERATION
The hood is supplied with a multispeed motor. The hood should be run at low speed under normal conditions and at higher speeds only when there is a heavy build-up of
fumes or odours.
Ideally, the hood should be switched on as soon as cooking is started and then kept on until all odours have been eliminated.
Hood controls operation (Fig. 3):
- TL button: illumination on and off.
- T1 button: switching on the hood, selecting the first speed, switching off the aspirator.
- T2-T3-T4 button: selection of the second, third and fourth speed of the aspirator.
The LED of the key in operation remains lit steadily.
To turn the aspirator off when you are not at the first speed, press T1 twice.
Adjustable and delayed self-switching off
With the hood in operation select the desired speed, then keep the TL button pressed for a few seconds until all the LEDs start to flash (T1, T2, T3, T4). By pressing one
of the buttons (T1, T2, T3, T4) you can program the delayed auto-off time, as follows: T1 corresponds to 5 minutes; T2 corresponds to 10 minutes; T3 corresponds to 15
minutes; T4 corresponds to 20 minutes. During the auto-off operation, the set speed can be changed. If the selection of the switch-off time corresponds to the speed set,
the speed LED flashes; if the choice is different, the speed LED remains fixed. During the auto-off operation, it is possible to deactivate the delayed switch-off by keeping
the hood operating, by keeping the button corresponding to the selected delayed time pressed. During the auto power off function, it is still possible to turn off the hood by
pressing T1 twice.
Maintenance warning for grease filters
Every 30 hours of operation of the hood, when the hood is turned off, all the LEDs of the hood speed buttons light up for 30 seconds to alert the necessary cleaning of the
metal grease filter. To reset the timer simply press and hold the T4 button with the fan off. If the timer is not reset, all the LEDs will light up again each time the hood is
switched off again.
Charcoal filters maintenance alert (for hoods in the filtering version)
Every 120 hours of operation of the hood, when it is switched off, the hood LED speed buttons will flash for 30 seconds to remind the cleaning of the metal grease filters
and, if the hood is in the filtering version, it is necessary to replace the carbon filters. To reset the timer, simply press the T4 button with the fan off, otherwise the LEDs will
flash again after each time the hood is switched off.
