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.
• The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for
exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other
fuels (not applicable to appliances that only discharge the
air back into the room).
• 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.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

• 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.

FIXING THE PLATE
• Lift up the Fixing plate and fit the slots onto the
two screws previously inserted in the ceiling,
and turn until they are at the centre of the ad-
justment slot.
Warning: The plate must be facing in the direc-
tion shown in the figure
• Tighten the two screws completely and screw
in the other two provided; before locking the
screws completely it is possible to make
adjustments by turning the piece, making sure
that the screws do not come out of the
adjustment slot.
• The unit must be securely fastened both due to
the weight of the Hood and the stress caused by
occasional sideways pressure on the Appliance
when in position. Once the unit has been fixed,
make sure that the plate is stable.
• In all cases where the Ceiling is not sufficiently
strong at the point of suspension, the
Installation technician must strengthen it with
suitable plates and counterplates, anchored to
structurally sound elements.
• Check that the plate is level on the ceiling.
