caused through non complying with the instructions in this manual.
The cooker hood must be placed at a minimum distance of 50 cm from
the cooking plane for electric cookers and 65cm for gas or mixed
cookers.
If the appliance is installed above a gas cooking device with installation
instructions specifying a greater clearance you must take this into
account.
The hood is equipped with a top air outlet B for discharge of fumes to
the outside (Ducting version  exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps
not provided).
Should it not be possible to discharge cooking fumes and vapour to the
outside the hood can be used in the filter version fitting an activated
carbon filter and the deflector F
on the support (bracket) G fumes and vapours are recycled through
the top grille H by means of an exhaust pipe connected to the top air
outlet B and the connection ring mounted on the deflector F (exhaust
pipe and pipe fixing clamps not provided).
The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting mode and
must be connected to an external suction device (not supplied).
Installation - Fig. 3
Preliminary information for installation of the hoo :
Disconnect the hood during electrical connection by turning the home
mains switch off.
Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most types
of walls/ceilings. However a qualified technician must verify suitability
of the materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling. The wall/
ceiling must be strong enough to take the weight of the hood.

is adjustable and should correspond to the internal width of the
telescopic chimney flue.
Assembling the eflector (only when a eflector compose of
3 parts is supplie  the eflector shoul be only for the filter
version):
The three parts should be fixed with 2 screws the deflector extension
is adjustable and should correspond to the width of the chimney flue
support to which it is then fixed.
1. Using a pencil draw a line on the wall extending up to the ceiling
to mark the centre. This will facilitate installation.
2. Rest the drilling template against the wall: the vertical centre line
printed on the drilling template must correspond to the centre line
drawn on the wall and the bottom edge of the drilling template
must correspond to the bottom edge of the hood: bear in mind
that when installation is complete the underside of the hood
must be at least 50 cm above the cooker top in the case of electric
cookers and at least 75 cm above the cooker top in the case of
gas or mixed cookers.
3. Rest the support bracket on the drilling template so that it
coincides with the dotted rectangle mark the two outer holes and
drill them remove the drilling template insert 2 wall plugs and fix
the hood support bracket into place using two 5x45mm screws.

ring located over the suction motor unit.
If the hood is to be used in ducting version the other end of the
pipe must be connected to a device expelling the fumes to the
outside. If the hood is to be used in filter version then fix the
deflector F to the chimney support bracket G and connect the
other extremity of the pipe to the connection ring placed on the
deflector F.

1 - Lights ON/OFF key
2 - Suction motor ON/OFF key
3 - Decrease in speed of the motor key
4 - Increase in speed of the motor key
5 - Insertion of intensive speed key (functioning for
10 minutes)
Use the high suction speed in cases of concentrated kitchen vapours.
It is recommended that the cooker hood suction is switched on for 5
minutes prior to cooking and to leave in operation during cooking and
for another 15 minutes approximately after terminating cooking.
If the hood fails to operate correctly, briefly disconnect it from the
mains power supply for almost 5 sec. by pulling out the plug. Then plug
it in again and try once more before contacting the Technical Assistance
Service.
Maintenance
Prior to any maintenance operation ensure that the cooker hood is
disconnected from the power supply.
Cleaning
The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly internally and externally.
For cleaning use a cloth moistened with denatured alcohol or neutral
liquid detergents. Avoid abrasive detergents.
Warning:
Failure to carry out the basic standards of the cleaning of the cooker
hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks.
Therefore we recommend oserving these instructions.
Grease filter
This must be cleaned once a month using non aggressive detergents,
either by hand or in the dish-washer, which must be set to a low
temperature and a short cycle.
When washed in a dish-washer, the grease filter may discolour
slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.
To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle (f) - (Fig. 1).
Charcoal filter (filter version only)
It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking.
The charcoal filter can be washed once every two months using hot
water and a suitable detergent, or in a dish-washer at 65°C (if the dish-
washer is used, select the full cycle function and leave dishes out).
Eliminate excess water without damaging the filter, then remove the
mattress located inside the plastic frame and put it in the oven for 10
minutes at 100° C to dry completely. Replace the mattress every 3
years and when the cloth is damaged.
Remove the filter holder frame by turning the knobs (g) 90° that affix
the chimney to the cooker hood (Fig. 2).
Insert the pad (i) of activated carbon into the frame (h) and fit the whole
back into its housing (j).
Replacing lamps
Warning!
Prior to touching the light bulbs ensure they are cooled down.
1. Remove the overhead light levering on the fixing clip with a
screwdriver or similar tool.
2. Replace the damaged light bulb.
Only use bulbs of 40W max (E14), making sure you do not touch
them with your hands.
3. Close the overhead light again with the clip.
If the lights do not ork, make sure that the lamps are fitted
properly into their housings before you call for technical
assistance.
Caution
The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm
persons without supervision.
Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
WARNING - Ensure that the appliance is switched off before replacing
the lamp to avoid the possibility of electric shock.
Do not use the cooker hood where the grill is not correctly fixed! The
suctioned air must not be conveyed in the same channel used for
fumes discharged by appliances powered by other than electricity.
The environment must always be adequately aerated when the
cooker hood and other appliances powered by other than electricity
are used at the same time. Flambé cooking with a cooker hood is
prohibited. The use of a free flame is damaging to the filters and may
cause fire accidents, therefore free flame cooking must be avoided.
Frying of foods must be kept under close control in order to avoid
overheated oil catching fire. Carry out fumes discharging in accordance
with the regulations in force by local laws for safety and technical
restrictions.
