Use
The hood is designed to be used either for
exhausting or filter version.
Ducting version
In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the
building by means of a special pipe connected
with the connection ring located on top of the
hood.
Attention! The exhausting pipe is not supplied
and must be purchased apart.
Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to
that of the connection ring.
In the horizontal runs the exhausting pipe must
be slightly slanted (about 10°) and directed
upwards to vent the air easily from the room to
the outside.
Attention! If the hood is supplied with active
charcoal filter, then it must be removed.
Connect the hood and discharge holes on the
walls with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet
(connection flange).
Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with
smaller dimensions will cause a diminution of the
suction performance and a drastic increase in
noise.
Any responsibility in the matter is therefore
declined.
- 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 as smooth as possible inside.
- The duct must be made of certified material.
Filter version
One active charcoal filter is needed for this and
can be obtained from your usual retailer.
The filter removes the grease and smells from the
extracted air before sending it back into the room
through the upper outlet grid.
The models with no suction motor only operate
in ducting mode, and must be connected to an
external suction device (not supplied).
The connecting instructions are supplied with the
peripheral suction unit.
Installation
The minimum distance between the supporting
surface for the cooking equipment on the hob
and the lowest part of the range hood must be
not less than 30cm from electric cookers and
35cm from gas or mixed cookers.
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob
specify a greater distance, this must be adhered
to.
Electrical connection
The mains power supply must correspond to the
rating indicated on the plate situated inside the
hood. If provided with a plug connect the hood
to a socket in compliance with current regulations
and positioned in an accessible area, after
installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct
mains connection) or if the plug is not located in
an accessible area, after installation, apply a
double pole switch in accordance with standards
which assures the complete disconnection of the
mains under conditions relating to over-current
category III, in accordance with installation
instructions.
Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to
the mains supply and checking the efficient
function, always check that the mains cable is
correctly assembled.
Mounting
Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the
hood to most types of walls/ceilings. However, a
qualified 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 this appliance to the wall.
Surface mounting only.
In the case of the presence of panels and/or walls
and/or lateral wall units check that there is
sufficient space to install the hood and that
access to the command panel is easy.
Only for some models
An aesthetic flue can be purchased as an optional
accessory.
Check with the authorized dealer whether the
model in your possession envisages this
possibility.
We advise installing the hood after having
purchased the flue to check with certainty the
most suitable installation.
