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 B for discharge of
fumes to the outside (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not
provided).

Filter version

Should it not be possible to discharge cooking fumes and
vapour to the outside, the hood can be used in the filter
version, fitting an activated carbon filter and the deflector F
on the support (bracket) G, fumes and vapours are recycled
through the top grille H by means of an exhaust pipe
connected to the top air outlet B and the connection ring
mounted on the deflector F (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing
clamps not provided).
The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting
mode, and must be connected to an external suction device
(not supplied).

Installation

The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the
cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of the range
hood must be not less than 50cm from electric cookers and
65cm from gas or mixed cookers.If the instructions for
installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this
must be adhered to.

Electrical connection

Th
e electrical tension must correspond to the tension noted
on the label placed inside the cooker hood. Connect the
electrical plug, where provided, to the an easily accessible
outlet in conformity with local standards in force. Where an

In certain models where it is required to use the cooker hood
in the suction version then it is possible to overturn the upper
section of the chimney
and insert it inside the lower section of the chimney so that the
