Recommendations for proper use of
the appliance aimed at reducing
environmental impact: When you
start cooking, switch the hood on at
minimum speed and leave it on for a
few minutes after you have finished
cooking. Increase the speed only if
there is a large amount of steam and
fumes. Use the booster function only
when necessary.
Replace the carbon filter(s) whenever
necessary in order to maintain a good
level of odour reduction efficiency.
Clean the grease filter whenever
necessary in order to keep it working
efficiently. In order to optimise
efficiency and reduce noise, use a
duct of the maximum diameter
indicated in this manual.
WARNING! Failure to install screws
or fixing devices according to these
instructions can cause electrical
hazards.
EN Caution
13
Use
The hood is designed to be used
either as a ducting version or as a
filter version.
Ducting version
This version conveys the fumes to the
outside of the building via an
extraction duct that is fixed to the
connecting flange.
The diameter of the extraction duct
must be the same as that of the
connecting ring.
Warning! The duct is not supplied
and must be purchased separately.
In the horizontal section, the
extraction duct must have a slight
upwards inclination (about 10°) so
that it can convey the air to the
outside more easily.
If the hood is fitted with activated
carbon filters, they should be
removed.
Connect the hood to the extraction
ducts and wall outlets that have a
diameter that is the same as the air
outlet (connecting flange).
Using ducts and wall outlets that
have a smaller diameter will reduce
suction and lead to a large increase in
noise.
We decline any responsibility if these
instructions are not complied with.
! Use a duct of the minimum
length necessary.
! Use a duct with as few bends as
possible (maximum angle: 90°).
! Avoid drastic changes in the duct
cross-section.
! Use a duct that is as smooth as
possible inside.
! The duct must be made of
certified material.
Filter version
The air will be degreased and
deodorised before being returned to
the room. To use the hood in this
version you have to install an
additional activated carbon filtration
system.
Models without a suction motor only
operate in ducting mode and must be
connected to an external suction
device (not supplied).
Connection instructions are supplied
with the external suction unit.
EN Installation
14
Installation
The minimum distance between the
pan supports on the hob and the
lowest part of the hood must not be
less than 50cm for electric hobs and
65cm from gas or mixed fuel hobs.
If the installation instructions for the
gas hob specify a greater distance,
this must be complied with.
Electrical connection
The mains power supply voltage must
be the same as that indicated on the
plate inside the hood. If provided
with a plug, connect the hood to a
socket that is compliant with current
regulations and located in an area
that is accessible, even after
installation. If it is not fitted with a
plug (direct mains connection) or if
the plug is not located in an
accessible area after installation, use
a compliant two-pole switch that
assures the complete disconnection
of the mains under over-current
category III conditions, in accordance
with installation regulations.
WARNING! Always make sure that
the mains power cable has been
installed correctly before re-
connecting
the hood to the mains power supply
and making sure that it works
correctly.
The hood is provided with a special
power cable; if the cable is damaged,
request a replacement from the
technical support department.

Mounting
Before installation:
• Make sure that the product is
of a suitable size for the area
in which it is to be installed.
• Remove the activated carbon
filter(s) if supplied (see also
relative section). This/these
should be reinstalled only if
you wish to use the hood in
the filter version.
• Make sure that (for transport
purposes) there are no other
items inside the hood (e.g.
packets of screws,
guarantees etc.), which
should be removed and kept.
• If possible, disconnect and
move any units below and
around the area of
installation of the hood (wall
or ceiling) in order to have
better access. Otherwise,
protect the furniture units
and all the parts involved in
the installation as much as
possible. Select a flat surface
on which to place the hood
and the supplied parts and
cover it with a protective
cover.
• Also make sure that there is
an electric socket available in
the area in which the hood is
to be installed (which can be
accessed even after the hood
has been installed) and that it
is possible to connect to a
device that discharges the
fumes to the outside (ducting
version only).
• Carry out all the masonry
work required (e.g.
installation of an electrical
socket and/or a hole for the
passage of duct).
The hood is supplied with expansion
plugs for fastening the hood to most
types of walls/ceilings. However, a
qualified technician should verify the
suitability of the materials for the
type of wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling
must be strong enough to support
the weight of the hood.

Grease filter
Retains the particles of grease
produced during cooking. It should be
cleaned at least once a month (or
when the filter saturation indication
system - if installed on the model in
your possession - indicates that it is
necessary to do so) using a non-
aggressive detergent, either by hand
or with a short, low temperature,
dishwasher cycle.
If washed in a dishwasher, the metal
grease filter may change colour, but
this not does affect its performance
in any way.
Pull the spring release handle to
remove the grease filter.
*NON-washable activated carbon
filter (only for models provided with
it)
The carbon filter retains unpleasant
cooking odours. The filter becomes
saturated after a variable length of
time, depending on the type of
cooking and how often the grease
filter is cleaned. In any case, the
cartridge should be replaced at least
every four months. This filter
CANNOT be washed or regenerated.
*Washable activated carbon filter
(only for models provided with it)
The carbon filter retains unpleasant
cooking odours. The carbon filter can
be washed once every two months
using hot water and suitable
detergents, or in a dishwasher at
65°C (if a dishwasher is used, select
the full cycle function without loading
dishes).
Eliminate excess water without
damaging the filter, then remove the
mat from inside the plastic frame and
place it in the oven for 10 minutes at
100°C to dry completely.
Replace the mat every 3 years and
whenever the cloth is damaged.
Lamp Replacement
The hood is equipped with a LED
lighting system.
The LEDs guarantee optimum
lighting, last up to 10 times longer
than traditional lamps, and allow
energy savings of up to 90%.
For replacement, contact the
technical support service.
