THE WIRE CONNECTION MUST BE DONE BY SPECIALIZED TECHNICIAN
The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or improper
installation.
The minimum safety distance between the cooker top and the extractor hood is 25” (some models
can be installed at a lower height, please refer to the paragraphs on working dimensions and
installation).
If the instructions for installation for gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be respected.
Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the rating label fixed to the inside of
the hood.
Means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring
rules.
For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthing.
Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe of minimum diameter 6”. The route of the
flue must be as short as possible.
Regulations concerning the discharge of air must be fulfilled.
Do not connect the extractor hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion fumes (boilers, fireplaces,
etc.).
If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g., gas burning appliances),
a sufficient degree of aeration must be guaranteed in the room to prevent the backflow of exhaust
gas.
When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with appliances supplied with energy other than
electric, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0.04mbar to prevent fumes being
drawn back into the room by the cooker hood.
The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances
burning gas or other fuels.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced from the manufacturer or its service agent.
Connect the plug to a socket complying with current regulations, located in an accessible place.
With regards to the technical and safety measures to be adopted for fume discharging.
It is important to closely follow the regulations provided by the local authorities.
WARNING: Before installing the Hood, remove all the protective films.
Use only screws and small parts in support of the hood.
WARNING: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these
instructions may result in electrical hazards.
Do not look directly at the light through optical devices (binoculars, magnifying glasses...).
Do not flambe under the range hood; risk of fire.

appliances burning gas or other fuels (not applicable to appliances that only discharge the air back
into the room).

engulf the sides. Deep fat fryers must be continuously monitored during use: overheated oil can
burst into flames.
