the electric grid. If the appliance is not provided
with a non-separable flexible cable and plug, or with

Installation
Before installing the appliance, make sure that
none of the parts is damaged in any way. In case of
damaged parts, contact your retai-ler and do not
proceed with installation. Read all of the
following instructions with care before installing
the appliance.
- Use an air outlet pipe of the shortest pos-sible
length.
- Limit the number of pipe bends.
- Use a material approved by standards and
regulations.
- Avoid any sudden changes in pipe section
(recommended constant diameter: 150 mm or
equal surface area).
*Before installing the appliance, in order not
to damage the appliance itself, the metal gra-se
filter should be removed. Such filter can be
removed by pushing the special filter handle
toward the back side of the cooker hood and
turning it downwards so to unfasten it from its slot
(Fig.3).
Essential precautions to respect before in-
stalling the appliance are the following:
To have made a cut-out on the bottom of the
cabinet which is suitable to hold the applian-ce in
position (fig.4).
* prepare the power supply.
* prepare a hole for the exhaust of the air
both in the filtering and in the exhauting ver-sion.
To install the appliance, adjust the position of the
stop side-springs using the appropria-te screws
(fig.5), according to the thickness of the board
previously drilled, on which the appliance will be
fixed.
Insert the built-in unit in the hole made in the
cabinet until the stop click of the side- sprin-gs is
heard and the built-in unit is blocked. Insert the
screws provided in the holes inside the appliance
(fig.6) to block it completely.
Blocking of the stop valve
Warning!
Before connecting the flexible exhausting pipe to
the motor, make sure the stop valve, which is on
the air outlet of the motor, can swing.
Exausting version
Connect the flange to the exhausting hole with an
appropriate pipe. Connect the ap-pliance with the
electrical mains through the supply cord.
Filtering version
Connect the flange with a pipe suitable to convey
the air to the top of the cabinet. Con-nect the
appliance with the electrical mains through the
supply cord.

Maintenance
*An accurate maintenance guarantees good
functioning and long-lasting performance.
*Particular care is due to the grease filter pa-
nel. It can be removed by pushing its special
handle toward the back-side of the cooker hood
and turning the filter downwards so to unfasten it
from its slot (Fig.3).
To insert the filter just perform the opposite
operation.
The grease filter needs cleaning by regular
hand-washing or in dishwashers every two
months at least or depending on its use.
*In case the appliance is used in its filtering
version, the active coal filter (Fig.7) needs to be
periodically replaced. The coal filter can be
removed by removing the grease filter first (Fig.3),
and by pulling its special plastic tongue until it is
unfastened from its slot. Re-insert the coal filter by
operating in the opposite way. The coal filter needs
replacing depending on the use, but however every
six months at least.
*To clean the appliance itself tepid water and
neutral detergent are recommended, whi-le
abrasive products should be avoided. For steel
appliances specialized detergents are
recommended (please follow the instructions
indicated o the product itself to obtain the desired
results).
* To replace the halogen lamps, remove first
the glass-blocking ring (Fig.8A), by levering with a
screw-driver and thus removing the opaque glass
(Fig.8B) - when performing this operation hold the
opaque glass carefully. Remove the lamp (Fig.8C)
without touching it with uncovered hands. Replace
it with ano-ther lamp of the same kind. After the
repla-cement, re-insert the glass-blocking ring and
fasten it.
* Warning! To take down the appliance from
the cabinet, remove the definitive fixing screws (fig.
6) using a screw-driver, get off the grease filters
(fig.3B) and the active car-bon filters, if they are
inserted (fig. 7A). Act on the small handle of the
springs, which are inside the built-in unit, with the
necessary strength to unhook the appliance from
the cabinet.
*If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer or its sevice agent or
a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a
hazard.
