Model 3
Remove the 3 panels D as shown in Fig.4.3
Pull handle B as shown in Fig.6.
When closing the panel, make sure that it is perfectly hooked
on to the fastening pins G fig.4.3.
Model 4
If one owns the version with three A panels release them from
the fixing pins by pulling outwards (Fig.4.4) and then remove
them from safety pins N (Fig.4.4) placed inside the hood.
Pull handle B as shown in Fig.6. To put them back perform
the operation in reverse order. ATTENTION! During this
disassembly and assembly operation ensure to hold the
panel securely to prevent accidental falls.
- If the appliance has a lid, remove it by removing the 4 screws
B as shown in Fig.9A.
• Wall fixing
Mark the position of the lower side of the hood on the wall
(Fig.2A). Maintain the minimum distance required from the
hob as shown in Fig.2B.
- Position the fixing template on the wall, making sure that
the line coincides with the line previously made on the wall.
- Mark the fixing holes and cut them into the material (Fig.3).
- Fix the 2 top screws K and screw anchors (Fig.3), without
tightening them completely.
- Place the appliance against the wall, align it in horizontal
position and tighten screws K (Fig.7).
- Once the adjustment has been completed, fix the hood using
the 2 screws C (Fig.8).
- When carrying out the fixing operations, use only screws
and screw anchors suited to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced
concrete, plasterboard etc.).
- If the screws and screw anchors are supplied with the
appliance, make sure that they are suited to the type of wall
to which the hood must be fixed.
• Installation of models without decorative ducts - extractor
hood
- Remove the 4 screws B as shown in (Fig.9 A).
- Remove both grid E on the air outlet hole and lid M as shown
in (Fig.9 B).
- Connect the hood to the flexible hose (not supplied) and
the hose to the air exhaust hole previously prepared (Fig.9 C).
- Fix the lid once again by using the 4 screws previously
removed in (Fig.9 A).
• Optional accessories
- This model may have decorative ducts as optional accessories
- ask your retailer for information.
Before fixing the decorative ducts, remove both the 4 screws
B and lid M, as shown in (Fig.10A-B).
- A sound-absorbing kit is also available (to be ordered as an
OPTIONAL accessory) in order to increase the quietness level
of the hood. The sound-absorbing layer must be applied to the
back of the decorative panel. For fixing operations, refer to the
instructions supplied with the kit.
• Installation of models with decorative ducts
Make sure the electrical power supply is within the
measurements of the decorative connector.
Adjust the width of the support bracket of the top connector
(Fig.11C). Then fix it to the ceiling so that it is on the same axis
as the hood using screws A (Fig.11C) adhering to the distance
from the ceiling shown in (Fig.11B). Connect flange C to the
air exhaust hole using flexible hose L (Fig.11D).
Slide the top duct into the bottom duct. Fix the bottom duct
to the hood using screws B (supplied) (Fig.11E).
Pull out the top duct as far as the bracket and fix it using
screws F (Fig.11C).
• Filter hood
Please note:
The filters should be ordered as accessories from your retailer.
We offer 2 different types of kit which can be used to transform
the EXTRACTOR hood into a FILTER hood, in accordance with
the type of appliance model purchased. One kit contains
extractable filters (fig. 10) and the other contains circular
filters (fig. 15).
1- If you find a bracket (such as the one indicated in fig. 14)
included in the product packaging, this should be fixed to the
hood using the 6 screws supplied.
To replace the active carbon filters pull lever B outwards as
shown in (Fig.10).
2- If your product is not supplied with a bracket, this means that
the active carbon filter is a circular version (fig. 15).
The filters should be fitted to the extraction assembly inside
the hood, by centring them and rotating them 90 degrees,
until they click into place (Fig. 15).
USE AND MAINTENANCE
• We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on before
any food is cooked. We also recommend that the appliance is
left running for 15 minutes after the food is cooked, in order
to thoroughly eliminate all contaminated air.
The effective performance of the cooker hood depends on
constant maintenance; the anti-grease filter and the active
carbon filter both require special attention.
• The anti-grease filter is responsible retaining the grease
particles suspended in the air, therefore it is subject to clogging
with variable frequency according to the use of the appliance.
- To prevent the danger of possible fires, at least every 2
months one must wash the anti-grease filters by hand using
non-abrasive neutral liquid detergents or in the dishwasher
at low temperatures and on short cycles.
- After a few washes, colour alterations may occur. This does
not give the right to claim their replacement.
• The active carbon filters are used to purify the air that is
sent back into the room and its function is to mitigate the
unpleasant odours produced by cooking.
- The non-regenerable active carbon filters must be replaced
at least every 4 months. The saturation of the active charcoal
depends on the more or less prolonged use of the appliance,
on the type of kitchen and on the frequency with which anti-
grease filter is cleaned.
- Regenerable active charcoal filters must be washed by hand,
with non abrasive neutral detergents, or in the dishwasher at
a maximum temperature of 65°C (the washing cycle must be
complete without dishware). Remove excess water without
damaging the filter, remove the plastic parts, and let the
mat dry in the oven for at least 15 minutes approximately at
a maximum temperature of 100°C. To keep the regenerable
charcoal filter functioning efficient this operation must be
repeated every 2 months. These must be replaced at least
every 3 years or when the mat is damaged.
• Before remounting the anti-grease filters and the regen-
erable active charcoal filters it is important that they are
completely dry.
• Clean the hood frequently, both internally and externally,
