WARNING:
-The appliance is not intended for use by young children
or infirm persons without supervision. Young children
should be supervised to ensure they do not play with
the appliance.
-The cooking surface and the inferior part of the cooker
hood must be at a minimum distance of 65 cm.
-The extracted air can’t be conveyed through or into
a duct used to let out fumes from appliances fed
by energy other than electric power (eg. centralized
heating, radiators, water-heaters, etc.).
-To evacuate the air outlet, please comply with the
pertaining rules given by competent authorities.
-Provide the room with an adequate aeration when a
cooker hood and appliances fed by energy other than
electric power (gas, oil, or coal stoves, etc.) are used
simultaneously. The cooker hood, when evacuating the
extracted air, could generate a negative pressure in
the room which can’t exceed the limit of 0.04 mbar, in
order to avoid the suck of exhausts deriving from the
heat source. Therefore the room should be provided
with air-intakes to allow a constant flow of fresh air.

-When performing the electrical connections on the
appliance, please make sure that the current tap is
provided with earth connection and that voltage values
correspond to those indicated on the rating label
placed inside the appliance itself.
-Before carrying out any cleaning or maintaining
operations, the appliance needs to be removed from
the electric grid. If the appliance is not provided with a
non-separable flexible cable and plug, or with another
device ensuring omnipolar disconnections from the
grid, with an opening distance between the contacts of
at least 3 mm, then such disconnecting devices must
be supplied within the fixed installation.
-If the fixed appliance is endowed with a supply cord
and a plug, the appliance has to be put in a place
where the plug can be reached easily.
-The use of materials which can burst into flames
should be avoided in close proximity of the appliance.
When frying, please pay particular attention to fire risk
due to oil grease. Being highly inflammable, fried oil
is especially dangerous. Do not use uncovered electric
grills. In order to avoid possible fire risk, all instructions
for grease-filter cleaning and for removing eventual
grease deposits should be strictly followed.
-This appliance complies with all relevant local
and national safety requirements. Inappropriate use
can, however, lead to personal injury and damage
to property.

-The cooker hood is not intended for outdoor use.
-It must only be used as a domestic appliance to extract
vapours and remove odours from cooking. Any other
usage is not supported by the manufacturer and could
be dangerous.
-Where a recirculation cooker hood is fitted above a gas
hob, please ensure that there is an adequate supply of
fresh air into the room in which it is installed. Please
seek the advice of a qualified gas fitter (e.g. GasSafe in
the UK) if necessary.
-Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from
the cooker hood unless they are constantly supervised.
-Children 8 years and older may only use the
cooker hood unsupervised if they have been shown
how to use it safely and recognise and understand the
consequences of incorrect operation.
-The electrical safety of this appliance can only be
guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is essential
that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any
doubt please have the electrical installation tested by a
qualified electrician.
-Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity
supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead.
These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance.
-The cooker hood can get very hot during cooking due
to heat rising from the hob.

USES
The appliance is already arranged both for re-circulation and ducted installation.
› In Recirculation mode (Fig.1), the air and fumes conveyed by the appliance are cleaned both
by a grease filter and by an active charcoal filter, and put again into circulation through the
hole made in the top of the cabinet.

connected from the extractor to the outside. Both charcoal filter and air deflector are not
necessary in this case.
