user guide regarding the cleaning of the hood and filters will lead to the

risk of fires.

The flaming of foods beneath the hood itself is severely prohibited.

The use of exposed flames is detrimental to the filters and may cause a fire risk, and must therefore be avoided

in all circumstances.

Any frying must be done with care in order to make sure that the oil does not overheat and ignite.

CAUTION: Accessible parts of the hood may become hot when used with cooking appliances.

For lamp replacement use only lamp type indicated in the Maintenance/Replacing lamps section of this manual.

WARNING! Do not connect the appliance to the mains until the installation is fully complete.

With regards to the technical and safety measures to be adopted for fume discharging it is important to closely

used for any other purpose such as discharging exhaust fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.

Do not use or leave the hood without the lamp correctly mounted due to the possible risk of electric shocks.

Never use the hood without effectively mounted grids.

The hood must NEVER be used as a support surface unless specifically indicated.

Use only the fixing screws supplied with the product for installation or, if not supplied, purchase the correct

Suggestions for a correct use in order to reduce the environmental impact: Switch ON the hood at minimum

speed when you start cooking and kept it running for few minutes after cooking is finished. Increase the speed

only in case of large amount of smoke and vapour and use boost speed(s) only in extreme situations. Replace

the charcoal filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good odour reduction efficiency. Clean the grease filter(s)

when necessary to maintain a good grease filter efficiency. Use the maximum diameter of the ducting system

indicated in this manual to optimize efficiency and minimize noise.

PART 2: DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE

1. Control panel

2. Grease filter

3. Grease filter release handle

4. Lighting

5. Telescopic chimney

6. Air outlet (used for filter version only)

PART 3: INSTALLATION

Use

The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter version.

Ducting version

The hood is equipped with a top air outlet Bfor discharge of fumes to the outside (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing

clamps not provided).

Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connection

flange). Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller dimensions will cause a diminution of the

suction performance and a drastic increase in noise.

Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.

Attention! If the hood is supplied with carbon filter, then it must be removed.

Filter version

In the case of not being able to discharge the fumes and the steam of cooking outside, the hood in the filter

version can be used mounting the Fdeflector on the flue and one or more carbon filters (on the basis of the

model possessed). The fumes and steam are recycled into the kitchen through upper grill H.

Attention! If the hood is not supplied with carbon filter, then it must be ordered and mounted.

Electrical connection

The mains power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If

provided with a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current regulations and positioned in an

accessible area, after installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not located

in an accessible area, after installation, apply a double pole switch in accordance with standards which

assures the complete disconnection of the mains under conditions relating to over-current category III, in

accordance with installation instructions.

Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and checking the efficient function, always

check that the mains cable is correctly assembled.

Warning! Power cable replacement must be undertaken by the authorised service assistance centre or similar

qualified person.

Mounting

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. Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the

wall. Surface mounting only.

The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest

part of the range hood must be not less than 50cm from electric cookers and 70cm from gas or mixed cookers.

If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.

PART 4: OPERATION

The hood is fitted with a control panel with aspiration speed selection control and a light switch to control

cooking area lights.

a. ON/OFF light switch

b. Speed 1/OFF switch

c. 2-speed selection

d. 3-speed selection

PART 5: MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Cleaning

Clean using ONLY the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. DO NOT CLEAN WITH TOOLS OR

INSTRUMENTS. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!

Grease filter

Traps cooking grease particles.

The grease filter must be cleaned once a month using non aggressive detergents, either by hand or in the

dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature and a short cycle. When washed in a dishwasher, the

grease filter may discolour slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.

To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle.

Charcoal filter (filter version only)

It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking.

The saturation of the charcoal filter occurs after more or less prolonged use, depending on the type of cooking

and the regularity of cleaning of the grease filter. In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least

every four months. The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or regenerated.

Remove the grease filters. Fit the charcoalfilters over the motor.

Align the pins R on the cowl with the slots S, then turn the filter clockwise until it locks in place.

Reverse the above procedure to remove the charcoal filters. Refit the grease filters.

Replacing lamps

Disconnect the appliance from the electricity.

Warning! Prior to touching the light bulbs ensure they are cooled down.

Replace the old light bulb with the one of the same type as specified in the feature label or near the light lamp

on the hood.

1. Using a flat head screwdriver or equivalent tool, carefully pry loose the light cover.

2. Remove the damaged light and replace with a new 12 Volt, 20 Watt (Maximum) halogen light made for a

G-4 base SUITABLE FOR USE IN OPEN LUMINAIRES. Follow package directions and do not touch new

light with bare hands.

3. Reinstall the light cover. (it will snap shut).

If the lights do not work, make sure that the lamps are fitted properly into their housings before you call for

technical assistance.

PART 6: BEFORE YOU CALL THE SERVICE CENTRE

If the appliance is not working as it should check the following recommendations for resolving the most

common problems.

If the problem persists or it is not included in the table below, turn off the appliance and disconnect it from the

power socket and contact an authorised service centre.

Problem Solution

The range hood is not working.

Check that the power plug is properly inserted in a

properly grounded power socket with the parameters 220

– 240 V ~ 50 Hz.

Check that the motor power switch is in the "On" position.

The lights are not working.

Check that the power plug is properly inserted in a

properly grounded power socket with the parameters 220

– 240 V ~ 50 Hz.

Check that the motor power switch is in the "On" position.

Check whether the light bulb or fl uorescent tube is

broken.

Exhaust power is weak.

Check whether the aluminium fi lters are dirty.

Check the air outlet, it should be open.

Check whether the carbon fi lter is not too dirty.

The range hood does not extract the air

directly out (for models without an exhaust).

Check whether the aluminium fi lters are dirty.

Check whether the carbon fi lter is not too dirty.

ATTENTION:

Use the range hood together with the stove. This will ensure the correct air exhaust. We recommend

to leave the range hood running a few minutes longer than the stove to ensure that all odours are

extracted.
