Use
The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter
version.
Ducting version
The vapours are evacuated outside through an exhaust duct
fixed to the connection flange of the suction unit (remote
motor).
Filter version
One active charcoal filter is needed for this and can be
obtained from your usual retailer.
The filter removes the grease and smells from the extracted
air before sending it back into the room through the upper
outlet grid.
Installation
Two persons are needed for the installation of this
product.
The product is not equipped with the duction motor,
therefore it must be coupled to a suction unit (remote
motor) of the same manufacturer.
To install the product is necessary to make a countertop
minimum depth of at least 220 mm up to a maximum of 400
mm.For greater depths it is necessary to ask the special KIT
with mounting brackets for ceiling depth from 400mm to
580mm.
You can choose the side of the hood from which to run off the
sucked air; there are air outlets of rectangular shape on three
sides of the hood.
After choosing the best location, set up the channel, the
supply provided includes an air outlet flange of rectangular
shape 230x80mm to be installed on the chosen outlet. Leave
closed the air exhaust holes are not used. There is also a
fitting included, that allows the use of tubes with a diameter
equal to 150 mm (see fig. 1), if you plan to create a circular air
outlet duct.
Locate on the ceiling a solid reference from the exact center of
installation of the hood (see Fig. 2), and then trace the
references for the drilling to be carried out in accordance with
the dimensions shown in Fig. 2.
Perform the holes into the ceiling using a suitable solid twist
drill of 8mm and insert the anchors supplied; it is enough to
perform the external punctures indicated in Figure 2, the
internal ones should be done after you install the hood.
Adjust the excursion of the fixing brackets according to the
depth of the niche; min. 220mm, max. 400mm as, shown in
Fig. 3. Tighten strongly the fastening screws of the brackets
immediately after you placed them into position.
Place the hood in the required position and secure it with the
screws provided; see fig.4.
Perform the holes into the ceiling in correspondence of the
central holes of the brackets and fix definitively the product by
applying the remaining screws.
Make the electrical connection (see fig. 5) and connect the air
discharge pipe following the instructions given in the related
section DUCTING SYSTEMS.
In case of installation of UP OPTIONAL MODULE LIGHT
connect the cable of the satellite hoods to the connectors
shown in Figure 5.
Install the plasterboard sheet making sure that it fits perfectly
to the metal edge of the hood as shown in figure 6.
The drilling to be done in plasterboard sheet has the size of
502 mm X 502 mm with R71 on the corners; use the drilling
template supplied.
To attach the plasterboard to the hood, use the screws
provided in the locations indicated in Fig. 7; see the supplied
drilling template.
Install the supplied screws 3.5x22. We recommend at least 12
screws to obtain a good fixation.
In case the hood is provided with an internal panel be covered
in plasterboard, wood or other material, make a sheet of the
following dimensions: 448mm X 448mm with R49 on the
corners; see drilling template supplied.
Install the sheet to the panel (fig. 8), using the screws
provided in the case of plasterboard or using the appropriate
adhesive for the type of material to be secured.
Caution: Do not use screws longer than the panel
thickness, maximum 3.5x22.
Panel opening
The opening of the panel can be done by pulling on the side
opposite the hinges, in correspondence of the LED that
indicates the speed of the suction motor (fig. 9). Accompany
the panel with your hands during the opening.
Following the panel opening, you can access the grease filter
and after its removal, acting on the appropriate handle, you
can reach the seat of the charcoal filter (fig. 10).
To close the panel, simply bring it in horizontal position until it
the automatic closing coupling occurs.
