The downdraft will carry out the calibration of its aspiration panel rising and retracting for some centim-
eters. During this phase, the buttons on the push button control panel blink. At the end of the calibration,
the aspiration panel gets back to the previous position and the button stop blinking. Wait until the aspira-
tion panel stops moving before re-activating the extraction.
UTILISATION
This product is intended to extract fumes and fats from cooking. It is designed to work in both suctioning
mode, with outside evacuation, and filtering mode.
EXTERNAL MOTOR VERSION
The hood is equipped with an air outlet to convey smoke outwards (the flue pipe and fixing flange are not sup-
plied).
Check valve blockage
Warning: Before connecting the air exhaust hose, make sure that the check valves are free to
turn over freely.
For hoods with outside air exhaust, fit a check valve to prevent wind and returning air from
entering.
Filtering mode
In case fumes and vapour cannot be evacuated outside, the appliance can be used in the filtering mode.
Carbon filters are required for this type of hood. Air recycled through the charcoal filters is reintro-
duced into the kitchen, thanks to a duct conveying the air on one side of the cabinet (Fig. 14 bis).
Installation must conform to the regulations in force regarding the ventilation of en-
closed environments. In particular, discharged air must not be channelled into a conduit
used for exhaust discharge or discharge from devices that operate with gas or other com-
bustible materials. The use of unused conduits is not permissible without the approval of
a qualified technician.
- GREASE FILTER REMOVAL
- MOUNTING THE CARBON FILTER
The removal and fitting of the grease and carbon filters need to be carried out with the down-
draft in the open position. To open the downdraft, push the ON/1 key. Then remove the front
panel, pushing the upper part of each side at the same time. The panel will rotate forwards to
make it possible to access the grease filters (Fig. 16). Remove the grease filters to access the
carbon filters (Fig. 17). IThe replacement of the charcoal filters has to be carried out accordingly to the
effective use of the Downdraft, and in any case at least once every 6 months.
After having replaced the filters, reinstall the front stainless steel panel, otherwise the Downdraft
is not enabled to function.
