ou should affix the hood to a wall of sufficient weight-bearing capacity, so not to one
made of plasterboard.
T
he cooker hood must be placed at a minimum distance of 60 cm from the cooking
plane for electric cookers and 60 cm for gas or mixed cookers. If the instructions for
installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this has to be taken into account.
Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only. Do not
fix chimney flue to furniture or fly over shelves unless the chimney flue can be easily
removed, in case maintenance is ever required.
T
he cooker hood is provided with an upper air exit B for discharging fumes externally
for models including chimney flue C ( Suction Version A- exhaust pipe not supplied). If
cooking fumes and vapours cannot be externally discharged, the cooker hood can be
used in the recirculating version F: the installation of 1 active charcoal filter F allows the
recirculation of fumes and vapours through the upper grid G.
M
ake sure that there is a power socket near the hood and that the system has a 30 mA
differential. The mains voltage must be the same as that on the label inside the hood. The
hood has a 1250 mm power cable with or without plug: if it does have a plug, connect
the hood to an accessible approved socket; or if it does not (connection direct to the
mains), fit an approved bipolar switch with a minimum contact opening of no less than
3 mm (accessible). This installation and electrical connection must be executed by a
qualified technician.
I
f the cooking top is in use, the cooker hood must always operate.
