ameter of 150. If a pipe with a smaller diameter is used, the
efficiency of the product may be reduced and its operation
may become noisier.
• Fixing to the wall
Drill the holes A respecting the distances indicated (Fig.2). Fix
the appliance to the wall and align it in horizontal position
to the wall units. When the appliance has been adjusted,
definitely fix the hood using the screws A (Fig.4). For the
various installations use screws and screw anchors suited to
the type of wall (e.g. reinforced concrete, plasterboard, etc.). If
the screws and screw anchors are provided with the product,
check that they are suitable for the type of wall on which the
hood is to be fixed.
• Fixing the decorative telescopic flue
Take care not to scratch the duct; wear gloves when removing
the protective film. (Fig. 7). Arrange the electrical power supply
within the dimensions of the decorative flue. If your appliance
is to be installed in the ducting version or in the version with
external motor, prepare the air exhaust opening. Adjust the
width of the support bracket of the upper flue (Fig.3). Then fix
it to the ceiling using the screws A (Fig.3) in such a way that
it is in line with your hood and respecting the distance from
the ceiling indicated in Fig.2. Connect the flange C to the air
exhaust hole using a connection pipe (Fig.4).
Insert the upper flue into the lower flue. Fix the lower flue to
the hood using the screws B provided (Fig.4), extract the upper
flue up to the bracket and fix it with the screws B (Fig.3).
To transform the hood from a ducting version into a filtering
version, ask your dealer for the charcoal filters and follow the
installation instructions.
• Filtering version
Install the hood and the two flues as described in the
paragraph for installation of the hood in ducting version. To
assemble the filtering flue refer to the instructions contained
in the kit. If the kit is not provided, order it from your dealer
as accessory. The charcoal filters must be fitted in the ducting
unit located inside the hood (Fig.6).
USE AND MAINTENANCE
• It is recommended to operate the appliance prior to cooking.
It is recommended to leave the appliance in operation for 15
minutes after cooking is terminated in order to completely
eliminate cooking vapours and odours.
The proper function of the cooker hood is conditioned by
the regularity of the maintenance operations, in particular,
the active carbon filter.
• The anti-grease filters capture the grease particles suspen-
ded in the air, and are therefore subject to clogging according
to the frequency of the use of the appliance.
In order to prevent fire hazard, it is recommendable to clean
the filter at a maximum of 2 months by carrying out the
following instructions:
- Remove the filters from the cooker hood and wash them in a
solution of water and neutral liquid detergent, leaving to soak.
- Rinse thoroughly with warm water and leave to dry.
- The filters may also be washed in the dishwasher.
The aluminium panels may alter in colour after several washes.
This is not cause for customer complaint nor replacement
of panels.
• The active carbon filters purify the air that is replaced in the
environment. The filters are not washable nor re-useable and
must be replaced at maximum every four months. The satu-
ration of the active carbon filter depends on the frequency of
use of the appliance, by the type of cooking and the regularity
of cleaning the anti-grease filters.
• Clean the fan and other surfaces of the cooker hood regu-
larly using a cloth moistened with denatured alcohol or non
abrasive liquid detergent.
• The illumination installation is designed for use during
cooking and not for prolonged general illumination of the
environment. Prolonged use of the illumination installation
notably reduces the duration of the bulb.
• Replacing halogen light bulbs (Fig. 8).
To replace the halogen light bulbs B, remove the glasspane C
using a lever action on the relevant cracks.Replace the bulbs
with new ones of the same type.
Caution: do not touch the light bulb with bare hands.
