IV. NOTES BEFORE INSTALLATION
Technical problems
Before proceeding with the installation of the device, take into account all
possible technical problems and difficulties that may occur during the installation
of the hood and its operation. Installation of the device should be performed by
qualified and trained personnel. Both the location of the hood, assembly work and
the method of connecting the hood to ventilation and electrical installations must
be in accordance with the law and applicable standards.
Spatial aspect
Before installing the hood and performing any assembly work, make sure that
the size of the device will match the size of the room. You should carefully check
whether the dimensions of the hood will allow its installation in the selected
place.
It is worth paying special attention to the color and finish of the hood so that it
blends in with other kitchen appliances, furniture and accessories. In addition,
care should be taken to ensure that the body of the eaves, its shape and form, do
not adversely affect the image of the room and its ergonomics, e.g. obscuring the
view, blocking the window, covering important elements of the room, etc.
Select the hood operating mode: extractor or absorber (Recirculating)
• Before starting the installation, specify the hood operating mode. In case of
operation of the device in the extraction mode, be sure to check and verify the
way of supplying the ventilation ducts
• The device can operate as an extractor (open circuit) (Fig. 1) or a canister ( closed
circuit) (Fig. 2).
• Extraction - fumes are extracted outside. They are released into the atmosphere
through a ventilation duct connected to the hood
• Absorber - fumes are first freed of grease residue and odors and then blown back
into the kitchen
Open Circuit Extraction - Ducted Out Closed Circuit - Recirculated

10
• When to opt for open circuit? (Ducted Out)
When there are technical possibilities (ducts and a dedicated ventilation grille for the
chimney of the appropriate diameter/dimensions).
º When cooking in the kitchen a lot.
º When the room needs to be quiet. º
When the distance between the hood and the ventilation chimney is small
• When to opt for closed loop?(Recirculated)
When there are no technical possibilities for open circulation (no ducts and no ventilation
grille for the chimney).
•When cooking occasionally.
• When the visual aspect of the interior is important.
• When the distance between the hood and the ventilation chimney is significant.
The hood as an extractor hood (open circuit)
and selection of ventilation ducts.
When choosing an extractor, i.e. an open
circuit (Fig. 3), Exhaust air must not be
directed to a chimney carrying fumes or
smoke, or to a ventilation duct of the rooms
where incinerators are located.
• The exhaust connection must be made before
installing the hood!
•Specify the type of ventilation ducts : round
pipes or flat ducts(types and sizes: see below).
•Air ducts should be made of non-combustible
material , eg plastic, galvanized.
•Round pipes are recommended - preferably with an internal diameter of Ø150 mm, but not
less than Ø125 mm.
•If it is necessary to use ventilation ducts with a diameter smaller than Ø150 mm, the reducer
should be installed as far as possible from the turbine ( it is best to reduce the diameter of the
duct at the mouth to the chimney). Thanks to this, noise will be limited and the efficiency losses
of the device will be minimized.
Fig. 3. The hood as an extractor

11
• Flat ducts can be used as an alternative to tubing. An appropriate equivalent should
be used. Their internal cross-sectional area must correspond to the internal cross-sectional
area of round pipes, i.e.: Ø150mm pipe, i.e. 220 x 90 mm flat duct, Ø125 mm pipe, i.e. 150 x
70 mm flat duct.
• It is highly recommeded to use 150mm round pipe or rectangular equivalent ducting
when possible to maintain optimal air flow.
• If bends are necessary, keep them to a minimum and choose as gentle bends as possible,
avoiding 90 degree angles.
•Long, porous outlet pipes with numerous bends (spiro pipes, flexible hoses) or those with
an internal diameter of less than Ø150 mm, prevent the achievement of optimal extraction
power, and the operation of the turbine becomes louder.
• The optimal route of the ventilation ducts significantly affects the operation of the device.
Excessively long ventilation ducts contribute to a decrease in the efficiency of the device.
• Similarly, constrictions or kinks in the pipes, in addition to a decrease in efficiency,
increase the noise level. In the event of incorrect installation, which results in reduced
efficiency of the hood or too high noise level of the device, the manufacturer will consider
the complaint unfounded.
• Reduction of the cross-sectional area of the ventilation duct from the recommended
diameter of Ø150 mm to Ø125 mm means a loss of up to 30% of efficiency. In order to
maintain the factory parameters of the device, it is necessary to plan the installation in such
a way as not to reduce the cross-sectional area of the hood's turbine outlet
• Every 90 degree bend in the pipe causes a drop in capacity.
•Each additional meter of pipe or flat duct decreases capacity.
• In the horizontal part, the pipe should have a slight upward inclination (lifting the ducts
upwards by about 10°) so as to facilitate the flow of air to the outside
• Ensure continuity (tightness) and patency of the ducts and the ventilation chimney
• Use sealing tapes. The manufacturer of the device is not responsible for malfunctions of
the hood caused by incorrect functioning of the pipe.
• Installation of ventilation ducts should be finished with clamps, dedicated tapes or
sealants. Incorrect seating of the pipe on the turbine flange or on the wall connection may
cause it to be pulled off during the operation of the hood
• It is recommended to additionally soundproof the ventilation ducts with soundproofing
materials (membranes, mats or other sound-absorbing materials)
• Ventilation ducts and soundproofing elements are not supplied by the hood
manufacturer. Their selection should be consulted with specialists, and then purchased in a
professional store.
• Before starting the hood in the extraction mode, make sure that the carbon filters have
been removed and are not in the device.

12
• Motor Flaps
We advise that motor flaps are removed during installation.
These are situated in the hood for transport purposes and to prevent debri falling in to the
motor during installation.

Open-circuit ventilation grille (hood as an exhaust hood ducted out)
• If in the room, apart from the hood, there are other devices with non- electric power
supply (e.g. fireplaces, instantaneous heaters or liquid fuel stoves), the discharged gases
from combustion may cause poisoning of household members .
• The air from the hood must not be discharged into a chimney duct used for exhausting
fumes from devices burning gas or other fuels ( this does not apply to hoods whose
construction provides only for exhausting air back into the room odor absorbers).
• Observe the requirements for air discharge.
• Under no circumstances should the ventilation ducts from the hood be connected to the
operated smoke or gas chimneys of other devices (eg boiler, stove). Also, ducts for aerating
and ventilating rooms with hearths should not be used.
• Turning on the hood starts the process of sucking in air from the kitchen and neighboring
rooms. Lack of proper ventilation can cause negative pressure. In such a situation,
poisonous gases from the chimney or ventilation duct will be released into the living
quarters, which is why it is so important to ensure that there is sufficient air supply. If the
air needed for combustion is supplied through openings that are not permanently closed
(ventilators, windows, doors, recuperators, wall ventilators) or other available technical
means, adequate ventilation will be ensured. The wall vent alone does not provide proper
ventilation. This point does not apply when the cooker hood is used as an odor absorber.
• If the exhaust air is to be directed to an unused flue or smoke chimney, the opinion and
consent of an authorized chimney sweep must be obtained. If the exhaust air is to be
discharged through an external wall, a telescopic box must be built in.
• Before purchasing ventilation ducts, it is mandatory to check the chimney's patency and
the size of the ventilation grille. It is assumed that the guarantee of proper ventilation of
rooms where other devices for solid or liquid fuels are used, the inflow of fresh air should
be three times higher than the outlet. It is also necessary to take into account the total
ventilation capacity of the apartment (tightness of windows, volume of the room). Doubts
in the field of technical preparations for ventilation should be resolved with specialists in
this field.
• The applicable national building regulations, which must be strictly observed, also play a
key role.

14
Hood as an absorber (closed circuit - Recirculated)
When choosing an extractor (Fig. 5), remember that:
This mode of operation is used when it is not possible to lead the extractor outside. No
ventilation ducts are installed to the absorber.
In order for the hood to absorb odors, it is necessary to use an activated carbon filter.
The absorber must not be used without a carbon filter installed.
The use of a carbon filter reduces the efficiency of the hood by approx. 30%, increasing it at
the same time its volume.
The air sucked in is cleaned of grease and odors using carbon filters mounted in the hood.
The air is then returned to the room through the outlet grilles at the top of the hood.
• IT IS PROHIBITED TO COVER THE OUTLET GRILLES!
In the case of ceiling hoods or hoods built into furniture (under the cupboard) and working
in the absorber mode, it is necessary to take care of exhausting the air from the ceiling or
furniture so that the filtered air flows freely back into the room.
Fig.5. Hood in recirculation mode
The hood supplied by the manufacturer
does not have a carbon filter installed ,
which means that the hood is designed for
operation with air extraction. Optionally,
the hood can be operated as an absorber
with a carbon filter installed. The
charcoal filter can be purchased from the
manufacturer's online shop.

15
Wall mounting
• The wall must be flat and vertical.
• The wall must be sufficiently load-bearing.
• The depth of the holes must be equal to the length of the screws.
• Wall plugs must be firmly seated.
• Taking into account the wide range of building materials that are currently used to
construct walls, the manufacturer does not include screws or wall plugs. It is worth
consulting a fastening specialist.
• Wooden (or similar construction, including plasterboard) walls cause increased noise
when the hood is operating. Unlike brick walls, they operate on the principle of resonance
boxes.
• Before drilling the mounting holes for the hood, check the wall so as not to damage other
installations, eg gas, electricity or water.
• The maximum weight of the cooker hood is given in the technical drawings section of this
manual.

V. GENERAL ASSEMBLY NOTES
Below are general considerations related to the installation of hoods. Compliance with the
described principles will enable correct installation and safe use of the device.
Contents of the package
• Check the set is complete ONCE AGAIN. In point III.
KIT CONTENTS
• This manual lists the items that should be included in the package. If something is missing
or any of the elements is damaged, please inform the Manufacturer's Service. • Prepare the
individual elements for assembly in such a way that it is easy reach for it.
Check that there are no additional materials supplied with the appliance inside the hood
(eg bags with screws, warranty card, proof of purchase, etc.). If there are, remove them
andkeep them.
ATTENTION! Remove any transport protection from the turbine!
Installation tools and preparation for installation
Before installation, make sure that all tools needed for installation are present within reach.
• Due to the dimensions of the device, 2 adults are recommended to unpack, remove and
install the hood. For larger devices, more than 2 adults are recommended.
FIG. 6 - Tools recommended during assembly
FIG. 7 - Minimum 2 people required for assembly
Attention!

17
The hood should be installed at a distance of min. 55 cm above the hob of the electrical
appliance and min. 65 cm above the hob of the gas appliance. The distance is measured
between the surface supporting the cooking utensils on the hob and the lowest part of
the range hood. If a greater distance is specified in the installation instructions for gas
appliances, this must be taken into account.
Installing the hood
• Do not connect the appliance to the mains before completing the installation.
• Notes on protection: Hoods finished with black gloss varnish - do not remove protective
materials (foils, paper, etc.). They should only be removed during assembly. INOX stainless
steel hoods (laser foil) – do not remove protective materials (foils, paper, etc.). They must be
removed after the assembly is completed.
Hoods with other finishes
- Protective materials should not be removed (foils, paper, etc.). They must be removed
after the assembly is completed.
• ATTENTION: possible markings and arrows on the protective foil serve only to identify
the direction of steel grinding, which is necessary in the production process. These are not
assembly markings and should not be taken as a guide.
• ATTENTION: the masking panel is an element susceptible to scratches, especially when
trying on and installing the eaves. Inserting and removing the masking element into and
out of the hood body may damage the element.
• Before any installation drilling in the wall or ceiling, carefully check the drilling locations
so as not to damage existing installations (electricity, gas, water, etc.). The foundation of
both the wall and the ceiling must be stable.
• Drilling through the electrical wires in the wall and connecting them with dowels/screws
to the hood housing may cause a short circuit , damage or destruction of the hood, other
devices in the room, and in extreme cases may lead to fire. At the same time, there is a risk
of electric shock to a person who touches the hood casing, which may result in damage to
health, disability, and in extreme cases even death.
• The cooker hood is a heavy device, therefore its handling and installation should be
carried out by two adults.
• In the case of hoods with an aluminum anti-grease filter that is directly accessible (not
protected by an additional flap or cover), it must be removed before installing the hood to
minimize the risk of its damage. After the installation is completed, reinstall the aluminum
grease filter in the hood. • In island and chimney hoods, the hood cover can be shortened
by using it cut from the bottom, but not more than 10 cm.
Cutting this element yourself does not void the warranty.

VI. DETAILED HOOD ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
ATTENTION!
Description of symbols etc. is in Chapter III. K IT CONTENTS
1. Remove the aluminum filters.
2. Place the hood body against the wall. In two holes (see technical drawing A)
located in the upper part of the hood body, mark and then drill holes for
mounting wall plugs. Hang the hood on the wall plugs previously screwed into
the wall and carefully check its fastening. If the hood is unstable, two
additional wall plugs can be used. Inside the hood body, in its lower part,
there are two holes for this purpose (see technical drawing B).
3. Connect the hood to the opening that discharges air to the outside using a
non-combustible pipe with a diameter of Ø150 mm (*Do not install the pipe if
the hood is to work in the exhaust mode. In this case, install carbon filters).
4. Mark and drill two mounting holes (see technical drawing) for the connection
band. The connecting band must be screwed to the wall, centrally above the
hood body. In order to fix the masking panels, insert
the upper masking frame into the lower masking frame and install them on
top of the hood body. Move the upper masking panel to the ceiling and screw
it to the connecting band using two sheet metal screws. Connect the lower
cover plate with the hood body using two sheet metal screws.
5. After assembly, install the aluminum filters.
6. Connect the hood to the mains.
Before installing the hood, protect the furniture,
hob and other devices located in the close vicinity
of the assembly area.

Electrical connection •
Please connect the device to the mains before completing the installation and test for any
faults.
• Do not bend or pinch the connection cable during installation. The required parameters of
the connections are on the rating plate placed inside the appliance, visible after removing
the aluminum grease filter.
• Before connecting the device to the power supply, make sure that the voltage and frequency
of the electrical system correspond to the values given on the hood's rating plate. The
rating plate of the hood is located inside the device - visible after removing the aluminum
anti-grease filter.
• The device corresponds to the 1st class of protection against electric shock. The hood has
a power cord with grounding.
• The hood is supplied with an electric cable and plug. It can be connected to any properly
installed and protected earthed socket (230 V / 50 Hz).
• The connection cable is approx. 1.5 m long and terminated with a plug that can be cut off
and permanently connected, or in the case of island hoods on cables, the cable is termi-
nated with cables for connection to an electrical cube. • Cutting the plug to permanently
connect the hood to the power supply does not void the warranty. It is recommended to
entrust this operation to a qualified person.
• If the hood is equipped with a plug, after installation, connect it to a socket compliant with
current standards and located in an easily accessible place.
• If the electrical socket used is not freely accessible after installation of the hood, the circuit
used must be capable of being disconnected for maintenance purposes.
• It is possible to cut off the plug and connect the wires directly to the cube.
• IF:
the hood will be deprived of the plug (direct connection to the mains), º the plug is located
in a hard-to-reach place, º the plug is enclosed, after installation, a standardized double-
-pole switch with a contact opening of at least 3 mm must be used. It will enable com-
plete disconnection from the mains in overcurrent category III conditions, in accordance
with the installation rules. Such protection may only be carried out by an electrician.

20
VII. USE
Proper use of the hood:
•The instruction manual is a part of the device and should be kept carefully so that it can
be consulted at any time. If the hood is sold, these instructions must be handed over to
the purchaser.
• The hood may only be used in domestic conditions over electric or gas stoves. The device is
not intended for industrial use.
• When using the range hood, the aluminum grease lters must always be installed, otherwise
grease may accumulate in the hood and in the ventilation system.
• When using a gas cooker, pay special attention not to use the burner without cookware pla-
ced on it. With an open gas ame, there is a risk of damage to parts of the hood due to the
strongly increasing amount of heat.
• The ames should not protrude beyond the outline of the bottom of the vessel or pot, thanks
to which we save gas and prevent excessive heat concentrations under the hood.
• Foods fried in fat should be constantly supervised, as overheated fat can ignite easily. It is
not allowed to tan products (e.g. vegetables). It is forbidden to ambé (preparation of food
sprinkled with alcohol and lighting it) under the hood due to the risk of re. Grease accu-
mulated in the grease lter can be easily ignited by a rising ame.
• Kitchen work using oils and fats, in particular deep frying, woking, frying French fries, etc. may
only be carried out under constant supervision due to the risk of re. In the case of already
used oil, the risk of spontaneous combustion increases.
• In the operation mode of the extractor hood and the use of chimney-dependent heating (eg:
chimney stoves, replaces, tile stoves,etc.), ensure that there is a sucient supply of fresh
air to the room. In each of the above cases, information should be sought from the building
administration and an authorized chimney sweep.
• Do not leave the ame naked when using the gas cooker.
When removing the pans from the gas, set the minimum size of the ame.
NEVER lean against the hood and use it as a support surface.
• When the air in the kitchen room is heavily polluted, use the highest speed of the hood. It
is recommended to turn on the hood 5 minutes before cooking food and leave it on for
about 15 minutes after cooking.
• It is FORBIDDEN to put your head under the hood, especially when the hood is on.
