Caution
WARNING! Do not connect the appliance to the mains until
the installation is fully complete.
Before any cleaning or maintenance operation, disconnect
hood from the mains by removing the plug or disconnecting
the mains electrical supply.
Always wear work gloves for all installation and maintenance
operations.
The appliance is not intended for use by children or persons
with impaired physical, sensorial or mental faculties, or if
lacking in experience or know-how, unless they are under
supervision or have been trained in the use of the appliance
by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be monitored to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Children
should not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play with
the appliance.Never use the hood without effectively mounted
grating!
The hood must NEVER be used as a support surface unless
specifically indicated.
The premises where the appliance is installed must be
sufficiently ventilated, when the kitchen hood is used together
with other gas combustion devices or other fuels.
The suctioned air must not be conveyed into a conduit used
for the disposal of the fumes generated by appliances that
combust gases or other fuels.
The flaming of foods beneath the hood itself is severely
prohibited.
The use of exposed flames is detrimental to the filters and
may cause a fire risk, and must therefore be avoided in all
circumstances.
Any frying must be done with care in order to make sure that
the oil does not overheat and burst into flames.
With regards to the technical and safety measures to be
adopted for fume discharging it is important to closely follow
the regulations provided by the authorised authorities.
The hood must be regularly cleaned on both the inside and
outside (AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH).
This must be completed in accordance with the maintenance
instructions provided in this manual). Failure to follow the
instructions provided in this user guide regarding the cleaning
of the hood and filters will lead to the risk of fires.
Do not use or leave the hood without the lamp correctly
mounted due to the possible risk of electric shocks.
We will not accept any responsibility for any faults, damage or
fires caused to the appliance as a result of the non-
observance of the instructions included in this manual.

Use
Model with integrated suction motor
The hood is supplied in the FILTERING version and is used
without an extracted fumes discharger conduit.
Fumes and steam are recycled through the F deflector.
If you intend using the product in the SUCTION version, it is
necessary to have an evacuation conduit going from the upper
B exit to the extraction hole towards the exterior.
In this case a connection ring has to be installed on the B
extraction hole and the carbon filter removed.
A telescopic flue is available (as an accessory).
Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a
diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connection flange).
If this is not possible, a multi-connection is supplied for tubes
and discharge holes with a smaller diameter to pressure apply
to the air outlet (connection flange).
The hood will become a little noisier.
Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller
dimensions will cause a diminution of the suction performance
and a drastic increase in noise.
Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.
Attention! If the hood is supplied with carbon filter, then it
must be removed.
Model without integrated suction motor
The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting
mode, and must be connected to an external suction device
(not supplied).
The connecting instructions are supplied with the peripheral
suction unit.
Warning: Only use a peripheral suction unit with total
absorption not higher than 250 W.
