Installation
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the
cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of the range
hood must be not less than 60cm from electric cookers and
70cm 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. If it not fitted
with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not
located in an accessible area 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
Before beginning installation:
•
Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for
the chosen installation area.
•
To facilitate installation, remove the fat filters and the other
parts allowed and described here, dismantle and mount it.
To remove see also the relative paragraphs.
•
Remove the active carbon (*) filter/s if supplied (see also
relative paragraph). This/these is/are to be mounted only if
you want lo use the hood in the filtering version.
•
Check (for transport reasons) that there is no other
supplied material inside the hood (e.g. packets with
screws (*), guarantees (*), etc.), eventually removing them
and keeping them.
•
If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in
range from cabinet opening to provide easier access to
rear wall/ceiling. Otherwise put a thick, protective covering
over countertop, cooktop or range to protect from damage
and debris. Select a flat surface for assembling the unit.
Cover that surface with a protective covering and place all
canopy hood parts and hardware in it.
•
Disconnect the hood during electrical connection, by
turning the home mains switch off.
•
In addition check whether near the installation area of the
hood (in the area accessible also with the hood mounted)
an electric socket is available and it is possible to connect
a fumes discharge device to the outside (only suction
version).
•
Carry out all the masonry work necessary (e.g. installation
of an electric socket and/or a hole for the passage of the
discharge tube).
•
Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to
most types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified
10
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.
