Electrical connection
!Warning: This appliance must be earthed.
Before installing the hood, it is vital to ensure that the
mains voltage corresponds to the voltage indicated on
the unit’s data plate.
!Only an authorised electrician should connect the
unit to the mains power supply.
!The unit is fitted with an electrical supply chord in
compliance with European standards.
Attention: if the appliance is permanently connected to
the mains, the plug supplied must be removed and
safely disposed of. The appliance must then be fitted
with a bipolar switch in compliance with current
regulations and have a minimum contact break of
3 mm.
!The manufacturer will not be held liable for any
problems caused by the user’s failure to observe the
above instructions.

Safety measures
The cooker hood is designed to operate for extraction
to the outside. It is important therefore to ensure that
sufficient air enters the kitchen for correct operation.
The hood cannot be connected to flues of other
appliances that run on energy sources other than
electricity.
Should the cooker hood be installed in a kitchen with
an instant water-heater or a gas-heating system, it is
strongly recommended for safety reasons not to use
external extraction. In this circumstance a unit with an
active charcoal filter must be used. This can be
obtained from your retailer and it uses recirculated air.
The cooker hood should be placed at least 60 cm
above the hob (glass-ceramic or traditional electric
hobs) or 65 cm where gas is used.
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob
specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.
If the hood is run at the same time as a burner or
fireplace that depend on ambient air (for example gas,
Diesel, coal or wood heaters, water heaters, etc.) be
careful, because the hood, when it exhausts the air,
removes the ambient air required by the burner or
fireplace for combustion.
For secure operation and to prevent discharged gas
from coming back in, the vacuum must not exceed
0,04 mbr.
This may be done by making sure the air inlet into the
room passes through non-closing openings such as
air recycling wall boxes, doors, windows or with other
technical measures.
The use of an unprotected flame is dangerous for the
filters and could cause fires.
Therefore, never use an open flame under the hood.
The hood must not be connected to fuel exhaust flues
(boilers, heating systems, water heaters, and so on).
Please, keep to the provisions of official directives
regarding the question of fume discharge.
The manufacturers refuse to accept any responsibility
for damage to the hood or its catching on fire because
of failure to observe the above instructions.

Installation
Diagram 1
This appliance is designed to be installed in a cabinet
or other supporting structure.
Make a hole in the bottom of the wall-hung cabinet,
using the dimensions shown in diagram 1.
To fix the hood, proceed as follows:
a) Remove fat filter/s A and frame B if it is already
mounted, releasing spring C (Diagram 1).
b) Fit the hood into the opening.
c) Insert the screws supplied into the”F” holes and
tighten them to fasten
the hood to the cabinet (Diagram 1).
d) Remount the frame.
e) Reinstall the filter or grease filters.
The horizontal sections of the pipe must be slanted
slightly upwards (about 10%) to ensure an easy flow of
the air outwards.
For better efficiency, it is advisable to install the hood
slightly inwards from the cupboard edge so as to
create a recess.
The hood performs best when short pipes (max. 4 m)
with few elbows are used. Caution: do not tighten the
clamp too far, as this may prevent the check valve (V)
from operating properly.
