Safety Precaution; Installation Instructions; Use And Maintenance - THERMEx Optica 885 Notice D'utilisation

GENERAL
Carefully read the following important information regarding
installation safety and maintenance. Keep this information
booklet accessible for further consultations.
The appliance has been designed for use in the ducting
version (air exhaust to the outside – Fig.1B), filtering
version (air circulation on the inside – Fig.1A) or with
external motor (Fig.1C).

SAFETY PRECAUTION

1. Take care when the cooker hood is operating
simultaneously with an open fireplace or burner that
depend on the air in the environment and are supplied by
other than electrical energy, as the cooker hood removes
the air from the environment 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.
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
overheated 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
the rangehood is used at the same time as appliances
burning gas or other fuels
L) There is a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out in
accordance with the instructions

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

• Electric Connection
The appliance has been manufactured as a class II,
therefore no earth cable is necessary.
The connection to the mains is carried out as follows:
BROWN = L line
BLUE = N neutral
If not provided, connect a plug for the electrical load
indicated on the description label. Where a plug is
provided, the cooker hood must be installed in order that
ENGLISH
the plug is easily accessible.
An omnipolar switch with a minimum aperture of 3mm
between contacts, in line with the electrical load and
local standards, must be placed between the appliance
and the network in the case of direct connection to the
electrical network.
• The minimum distance between the supporting surface
for the cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of
the range hood. When the range hood is located above a
gas appliance, this distance shall be at least 65 cm.
If a connection tube composed of two parts is used, the
upper part must be placed 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.
Before proceeding with the assembly operations, remove
the anti-grease filter(s) (Fig.6) so that the unit is easier
to handle.
• FIXING TO THE WALL
Drill the holes A respecting the distances indicated (Fig.2).
Fix the appliance to the wall and align it in horizontal
position to the wall units. When the appliance has been
adjusted, definitely fix the hood using the screws A (Fig.4).
For the various installations use screws and screw an-
chors suited to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced concrete,
plasterboard, etc.). If the screws and screw anchors are
provided with the product, check that they are suitable for
the type of wall on which the hood is to be fixed.
• FIXING THE DECORATIVE TELESCOPIC FLUE
Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimensions
of the decorative flue. If your appliance is to be installed in
the ducting version or in the version with external motor,
prepare the air exhaust opening. Adjust the width of the
support bracket of the upper flue (Fig.3). Then fix it to the
ceiling using the screws A (Fig.3) in such a way that it is in
line with your hood and respecting the distance from the
ceiling indicated in Fig.2. Connect the flange C to the air
exhaust hole using a connection pipe (Fig.4).
Insert the upper flue into the lower flue. Fix the lower flue
to the hood using the screws B provided (Fig.4), extract
the upper flue up to the bracket and fix it with the screws
B (Fig.3). To transform the hood from a ducting version into
a filtering version, ask your dealer for the charcoal filters
and follow the installation instructions.
• FILTERING VERSION
Install the hood and the two flues as described in the
paragraph for installation of the hood in ducting version. To
assemble the filtering flue refer to the instructions con-
tained in the kit. If the kit is not provided, order it from your
dealer as accessory. The charcoal filters must be fitted in
the ducting unit located inside the hood (Fig.7).
