• Installation
Note: The appliance can be supplied with upper or back air
outlet. This setting is pre-configured by the manufacturer,
therefore it is not possible to change it during the installation
• Installation of models without decorative ducts
Extractor hood
- Remove both grid E on the air outlet hole and lid M as
shown in (Fig.2).
- Connect the hood to the flexible hose (not supplied) and the
hose to the air exhaust hole previously prepared (Fig.3A/3B).
- Fix the lid once again.
• Optional accessories
This model may have decorative ducts as optional accessories
- ask your retailer for information.
• Installation of models with decorative ducts
- Unclip the top cover
- Make sure the electrical power supply is within the measure-
ments of the decorative connector.
- Unscrew and remove the four clips on the hood. Fig. 4
- Fix the bracket to the wall so that it is on the same axis as the
hood using screws A (Fig.5) and resptecitng the distance from
the duct piping shown in (Fig. 5 B).
- Connect flange C to the air exhaust hole using flexible hose
L (Fig.6).
- Position the chimneys on the hood as described in Fig.6 and
fasten the parts using the (4) screws provided
- Pull out the top duct as far as the bracket and fix it using
screws F (Fig.5).
• Filter hood
Please note:
The filters should be ordered as accessories from your retailer.
We offer 2 different types of kit which can be used to transform
the EXTRACTOR hood into a FILTER hood, in accordance with
the type of appliance model purchased. One kit contains
extractable filters (Fig. 7) and the other contains circular
filters (Fig. 8).
• Wall fixing
- Mark the position of the lower side of the hood on the wall
(Fig.9A). Maintain the minimum distance required from the
hob as shown in Fig.9B.
- Position the fixing template on the wall, making sure that
the line coincides with the line previously made on the wall.
- Mark the fixing holes and cut them into the material (Fig.10).
- Fix the 2 top screws K and screw anchors (Fig.10), without
tightening them completely.
- Hang the appliance to the wall on the two screws K (Fig.11).
- Open the flap. (Fig.12)
- Fasten the two K screws completely and fix the hood in its
final position with the screws C (Fig.13).
- Close the flap until it clicks into place and put the top cover
back on.
- When carrying out the fixing operations, use only screws
and screw anchors suited to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced
concrete, plasterboard etc.).
- If the screws and screw anchors are supplied with the ap-
pliance, make sure that they are suited to the type of wall to
which the hood must be fixed.
USE AND MAINTENANCE
• We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on before
any food is cooked. We also recommend that the appliance is
left running for 15 minutes after the food is cooked, in order to
thoroughly eliminate all contaminated air. The effective perfor-
mance of the cooker hood depends on constant maintenance;
the anti-grease filter and the active carbon filter both require
special attention.
• The anti-grease filter is responsible retaining the grease
particles suspended in the air, therefore it is subject to clogging
with variable frequency according to the use of the appliance.
- To prevent the danger of possible fires, at least every 2
months one must wash the anti-grease filters by hand using
non-abrasive neutral liquid detergents or in the dishwasher at
low temperatures and on short cycles.
- After a few washes, colour alterations may occur. This does
not give the right to claim their replacement.
• The active carbon filters are used to purify the air that is sent
back into the room and its function s to mitigate the unpleasant
odours produced by cooking.
- The non-regenerable active carbon filters must be replaced
at least every 4 months. The saturation of the active charcoal
depends on the more or less prolonged use of the appliance,
on the type of kitchen and on the frequency with which anti-
grease filter is cleaned.
- Regenerable active charcoal filters must be washed by hand,
with non abrasive neutral detergents, or in the dishwasher at
a maximum temperature of 65°C (the washing cycle must be
complete without dishware). Remove excess water without
damaging the filter, remove the plastic parts, and let the mat dry
in the oven for at least 15 minutes approximately at a maximum
temperature of 100°C. To keep the regenerable charcoal filter
functioning efficient this operation must be repeated every 2
months. These must be replaced at least every 3 years or when
the mat is damaged.
• Before remounting the anti-grease filters and the regen-
erable active charcoal filters it is important that they are
completely dry.
• Clean the hood frequently, both internally and externally,
using a cloth dampened with denatured alcohol or neutral
liquid detergents that are non abrasive.
• The lighting .system is designed for use during cooking and
not for the prolonged general lighting of the room. The pro-
longed use of the lighting system significantly decreases the
average duration of the bulbs.
• If the appliance is equipped with courtesy lights it is possible
to use them for general room lighting for a prolonged amount
of time.
• Attention: the non compliance with the hood cleaning
warnings and with the replacement and cleaning of the filters
entails risk of fires. One therefore recommends keeping to the
suggested instructions.
• Replacing halogen light bulbs (Fig. 14).
In order to replace the dichroic lamps, carefully remove
the lamp from the lamp holder with the help of a small flat
screwdriver or a similar tool. PLEASE NOTE! In doing this
operation, please take care not to scratch the hood.
Replace the bulbs with new ones of the same type.
