in the environment and are supplied by other than electrical
energy, as the cooker hood removes the air from the environ-
ment which a burner or fireplace need for combustion. The
negative pressure in the environment must not exceed 4Pa
(4x10-5 bar). Provide adequate ventilation in the environment
for a safe operation of the cooker hood. Follow the local laws
applicable for external air evacuation.
Before connecting the model to the electricity network:
- Control the data plate (positioned inside the appliance)
to ascertain that the voltage and power correspond to the
network and the socket is suitable. If in doubt ask a qualified
electrician.
- If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced with
another cable or a special assembly, which may be obtained
direct from the manufacturer or from the Technical Assistance
Centre.
- This device must be connected to the supply network through
either a plug fused 3A or hardwired to a 2 fase spur protected
by 3A fuse.
2. Warning!
In certain circumstances electrical appliances may be a
danger hazard.
A) Do not check the status of the filters while the cooker
hood is operating.
B) Do not touch bulbs or adjacent areas, during or straight
after prolonged use of the lighting installation.
C) Flambè cooking is prohibited underneath the cooker
hood.
D) Avoid free flame, as it is damaging for the filters and a
fire hazard.
E) Constantly check food frying to avoid that the over-
heated oil may become a fire hazard.
F) Disconnect the electrical plug prior to any maintenance.
G) This appliance is not intended for use by young children
or infirm persons without supervision.
H) Young children should be supervised to ensure they do
not play with the appliance.
I) There shall be adequate ventilation of the room when

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

• Assembly and electrical connections must be carried out
by specialised personnel.
• Wear protective gloves before proceeding with the
installation.
• Electric Connection:
- The appliance has been manufactured as a class II, therefore
no earth cable is necessary. The plug must be easily accessible
after the installation of the appliance. If the appliance is equip-
ped with power cord without plug, a suitably dimensioned
omnipolar switch with 3 mm minimum opening between con-
tacts must be fitted between the appliance and the electricity
supply in compliance with the load and current regulations.
- The connection to the mains is carried out as follows:
BROWN = L line
BLUE = N neutral.
• The minimum distance between the support surfaces of
the cooking pots on the cooker top and the lowest part of
the cooker hood must be at least 65 cm. If a connection tube
composed of two parts is used, the upper part must be pla-
ced outside the lower part. Do not connect the cooker hood
exhaust to the same conductor used to circulate hot air or for
evacuating fumes from other appliances generated by other
than an electrical source.
- In the case of assembly of the appliance in the suction version
prepare the hole for evacuation of the air.
• We recommend the use of an air exhaust tube which has the
same diameter as the air exhaust outlet hole. If a pipe with a
smaller diameter is used, the efficiency of the product may be
reduced and its operation may become noisier.
• The following procedures must be performed before the
appliance is installed:
- For easier handling of the appliance, remove the grease
filter(s) (Fig.2).
- If the product is fitted with a filter, take out the re-usable
carbon filter by pulling the bracket outwards and removing it
from its housing (Fig.3).
- In the case of assembly of the appliance in the suction version
prepare the hole for evacuation of the air.
- Fit the flange to the air outlet hole by turning it until it clicks
into place, then fix it using a screw (Fig.4).
• (*) Warning: plastic spacer fitting:
This product may also be supplied with a plastic spacer O, which
should be fitted before the hood is installed (Fig.5).
- Fix the spacer to the hood using screws P (Fig.5).
- To assemble the unit correctly, align the front panel of the
hood with the wall cabinet and decide on the distance ne-
cessary to fill in any space remaining between the hood and
the wall.
- Once the distance has been established, use a cutter to
remove the excess plastic (Fig.5).
• This product may be installed in 2 different ways:
- F ixing the hood to the lower part of the wall cabinet:
Type A installation, figure 6.
- F ixing the hood to the wall:
Type B installation, figure 7.
• Fixing the hood to the lower part of the wall cabinet
(Fig.6A):
1. Using the drill template supplied, make 2 holes (E) in the
sides of the wall cabinet, in line with hooks D (Fig.6).
Position the hood inside, so that the internal side hooks D can
be positioned into the two holes E.
2. Fix it in place using 4 screws B which are suited to the type
of cabinet installed, as indicated in figure 6.
