2. Use
2.2 Energy saving
NB = use pans with a suitable diameter for the burners
and make sure the highest flame does not protrude from
under them
Recommendations for best results:
- Use pots and pans with a base diameter suitable for the size
of the burners.
To see the diameter of the pan to use on each individual
burner, consult the relevant section in this manual.
- Use only pots and pans with flat bottoms.
- Where possible, keep the lid on pots during cooking
- Cook vegetables, potatoes, etc. with a minimal amount of
water to reduce cooking time.
- Use a pressure cooker, as it further reduces the energy
consumption and cooking time
- Place the pot in the centre of the cooking zone drawn on the
hob.
- To reduce power consumption, the burners should be
adjusted to suit the cooking under way. For best extraction of
vapours, place a ladle between the lid and the pot, in
particular in the case of tall pots.
Using the extractor fan
The extraction system can be used in two versions: external
extraction and evacuation or as a filter with internal
recirculation.
Extraction version
Fig.7
The fumes are evacuated towards the outside through a
series of pipes (bought separately) fastened to the supplied
connecting flange.
The diameter of the exhaust pipe must be equivalent to the
diameter of the connecting ring:
- for rectangular outlets 222 x 89 mm
- for circular outlets Ø 150 mm (*)
For more information, see the page relative to the extraction
version in the illustrated part of this manual.
Fig.7c
Connect the product to wall-mounted exhaust pipes and holes
with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connecting flange).
Using wall-mounted exhaust pipes and holes with a smaller
diameter may reduce the efficiency of extraction and
drastically increase noise levels.
All responsibility in this regard is therefore denied.
! Use ducting with the minimal indispensable length.
! Use ducting with the least possible number of curves
(maximum angle: 90°).
! Avoid drastic changes in the ducting diameter.
Filtration version
Fig. 8
The extracted air will be filtered in special grease filters and
odour filters before being sent back into the room.
The product is supplied with all parts necessary for standard
installation, with the air outlet positioned in the front part of the
cabinet plinth.
The product is equipped with four filter packs that trap odours
thanks to the activated carbons.
The activated carbons are integrated into a non-woven fabric
matrix, making them easily and completely accessible to
impurities, thus creating a high absorption surface.
For more information, see the page relative to the filtration
version (in the illustrated part of this manual).

installations.
