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.
• 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.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced from
the manufacturer or its service agent.
• 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.
