Use
The hood has been made for use in the internal recirculating
filtering version.
Cooking fumes and steam are aspirated inside the hood,
filtered and cleaned, passing through the fat filter/s and the
carbon filter/s that MUST be supplied with the hood.
Important
It is possible to buy an extraction operation Kit.
In this case the charcoal filter must not be installed.
Furthermore, the use of the extraction kit may require a
different installation of the hood from what shown in this
manual; therefore, before starting the installation of the hood,
buy the extraction kit and consult the instructions enclosed
with the kit.
Installation
Specialised personnel must carry out both the electrical
and the mechanical 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 50cm from electric cookers
and 65cm 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 tension must correspond to the tension shown on
the characteristic label situated inside the hood.
The product is meant for connecting directly to the mains
supply, therefore apply a regulation bipolar switch that
ensures complete disconnection from the mains in the
conditions of category III over-tension, conforming to the
installation rules.
Warning! Detail B (fixing bracket to the ceiling - Fig. 1) is
equipped with a conductor (yellow-green) that must be
connected to the earth of the domestic electrical plant.

Warining! Changing the interconnection cable must be
carried out by the authorised technical assistance service.
Mounting
This type of cooker hood must be fixed to the ceiling.
Very heavy product; hood handling and installation must
be carried out by at least two persons.
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.
Certain models are supplied WITHOUT panels (Panelable
Version) in order to allow personalization of the product.
Attention!: The materials used to panel the Panelable
Version must meet the requirements of the General
European Household Appliance Standard EN 60335-1 and
in particular the cooker hood standard EN 60335-2-31.
Elica S.p.A. Refuses all responsibility for any damage
deriving from the use of materials not complying with
such requirements.
Attention!: Do not connect the appliance to the power
supply system until the installation of the hood and the
panels has been completed.
On the first pages of this manual you will find the technical
drawings necessary to determine the right dimensions of the
panels and the fixing points.
