RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
The Instructions for Use apply to several versions of this appliance.
Accordingly, you may find descriptions of individual features that do not
apply to your specific appliance.
INSTALLATION
• 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 650 mm (some models can
be installed at a lower height, please refer to the
paragraphs on working dimensions and installation).
• Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that
indicated on the rating plate fixed to the inside of the
hood.
• 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 120 mm. The route of the flue must be as short as possible.
• 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 in order to prevent the
backflow of exhaust gas. The kitchen must have
an opening communicating directly with the open
air in order to guarantee the entry of clean air.
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 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back
into the room by the cooker hood.
• In the event of damage to the power cable, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or by the technical service department, in order to prevent any
risks.

• If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance
specified above, this has to be taken into account. Regulations concerning
the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.
• 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.
• Connect the hood to the mains through a two-pole switch having a contact
gap of at least 3 mm.
USE
• The extractor hood has been designed exclusively for domestic use to
eliminate kitchen smells.
• Never use the hood for purposes other than for which it has been designed.
• Never leave high naked flames under the hood when it is in operation.
• Adjust the flame intensity to direct it onto the bottom of the pan only, making
sure that it does not engulf the sides.
• Deep fat fryers must be continuously monitored
during use: overheated oil can burst into flames.
• Do not flambè under the range hood; risk of fire.
• This appliance can be used by children aged from
8 years and above and persons with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of
experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards
involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user
maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.

• “CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking
appliances.”
MAINTENANCE
•Switch off or unplug the appliance from the mains supply before carrying out
any maintenance work.
• Clean and/or replace the Filters after the specified time period (Fire hazard).
• The Grease filters must be cleaned every 2 months of operation, or more
frequently for particularly heavy usage, and can be washed in a dishwasher.
• The Activated charcoal filter is not washable and cannot be regenerated,
and must be replaced approximately every 4 months of operation, or more
frequently for particularly heavy usage.
• "Failure to carry out cleaning as indicated will result in a fire hazard".
• Clean the hood using a damp cloth and a neutral liquid detergent.

INSTALLATION
Drilling the Support surface and Fitting the Hood
• The Hood can be installed directly on the un-
derside of wall-mounted units (650 mm min.
from the Cooker Top) using the snap-on side
supports.
• According to requirements, fit two of the sup-
port brackets for the hood (see table fig. 1) at a
distance of 125 mm from the front of the wall-
mounted unit.
• According to the chosen air outlet diameter,
insert the appropriate flange into the upper ex-
haust outlet. (fig.2)
• Measure the depth of the wall-mounted unit.
(fig.3)
• Measure the depth of the hood plus the depth of
the fastening profile 20 or 21 or 22 (fig. 3) up
to the end of the wall-mounted unit (fig. 3)
• If necessary, assemble the profile 21 with 20 or
with 22 with 2 screws 12g (2,9 x 6,5) provided
in order to cover the gap between the hood and
the wall.
•Screw the fastening profile to the rear part of
the hood using screws 12f (2.9 x 9.5) provided.
(fig.4)
• Open the ducting carriage.
• Remove the metal grease filters one at a time,
releasing the fasteners provided.
• Close the ducting carriage.
• Insert the Hood until it connects with the snap-
on side Supports. (fig.5)
• Open the ducting carriage.
• Lock it in position by tightening screws Vf from
underneath the Hood. (fig.5)
• Should it be necessary to make adjustments to
the inside of the filter holder element, proceed
as follows:
• Loosen the four adjustment screws Vr and
close the carriage again. (fig.6)
• Move the whole filter holder element until it
is properly aligned with the wall-mounted
unit. (fig.7)
• Holding the hood canopy still, extract the
carriage and tighten the adjustment screws
Vr. (fig.6)
• It is now possible to fasten the hood to the
wall-mounted unit using the screws 12a (3.5
x 16) provided. (fig.8)
• Replace the metal grease filters.
• Close the ducting carriage.

clamps (not supplied).
• Remove possible charcoal filters.
RECIRCULATION VERSION AIR OUTLET
• Cut a hole ø 125 mm in any shelf that may be posi-
tioned over the hood.

By pulling out the sliding panel it is possible to automatically activate all the hood functions.
By simply closing the sliding panel all the functions are switched off.
SWITCH FUNCTIONS
LLight Switches the lighting system on and off
MMotor Switches the extractor motor on and off
1. Low speed, used for a continuous and silent air change in the presence
of light cooking vapour.
2. Medium speed, suitable for most operating conditions, thanks to an op-
timum relation between hood performance and noise.
3. Maximum speed, suitable when the highest cooking vapour emission
has to be eliminated for longer periods.
