USER WARNINGS
GENERAL WARNINGS
These warnings have been drawn up for your personal safety and those of others. You are there-
fore kindly asked to read the booklet carefully in its entirety before installing and using the
equipment or carrying out cleaning operations.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage caused directly, or indirectly, to persons,
•
things and pets as a consequence of failing to comply with the safety warnings indicated in this
booklet.
It is imperative that this instructions booklet is kept together with the equipment for any future
•
consultation. If the equipment is sold or transferred to another person, make sure that the booklet is
also supplied so that the new user can be made aware of the hood's operation and relative warnings.
Installation operations are to be carried out by a skilled and qualified installer in accordance with the
•
instructions in this booklet and in compliance with the regulations in force.
DO NOT use the hood if the power supply cable or other components are damaged. Disconnect the
•
hood from the electrical power supply and contact the Dealer or an authorised Servicing Department for
repairs. Insist on original spare parts. Do not personally try to carry out repairs or replacements. Inter-
ventions carried out by incompetent and unauthorised persons can cause damage, even serious, to
things and/or persons not covered by the Manufacturer's warranty.
Do not modify the electrical, mechanical and functional structure of the equipment. Any changes to the
•
electrical system required to install the hood must be carried out by a qualified electrician.
INTENDED USE
The equipment is solely intended to be used to extract fumes generated from cooking food in
•
non-professional domestic kitchens: any other use is improper, can cause damage to persons, things and
pets and exempts the Manufacturer from any liability.
The equipment can be used by children above the age of 8 and by persons with reduced physical, sensory
•
and mental abilities, or with no experience or knowledge, as long as they do so under supervision or after
having received relative instructions regarding safe use of the equipment and understanding of the dangers
connected to it. Children are not to play with the equipment. Cleaning and maintenance operations intend-
ed for the user must not be carried out by children without supervision.
USE AND CLEANING WARNINGS
Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance operations, disconnect the equipment by removing the
•
plug or switching off the main switch.
Do not use the hood with wet hands or bare feet.
•
Always check that all electrical parts (lights, extractor fan) are off when the equipment is not used.
•
The maximum overall weight of any objects placed or hung (if applicable) on the hood must not exceed 1.5 Kg.
•
Check the deep-fryers during use: Overheated oil can catch fire.
•
Do not light naked flames under the hood.
•
Do not flambé foods under the hood.
•
Never use the hood without the metal anti-grease filters: in this case, grease and dirt will deposit in the equip-
•
ment and compromise its operation.
Accessible parts of the hood can be hot if used together with cooking appliances.
•
Do not carry out any cleaning operations when parts of the hood are still hot.
•
There can be a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out according to the methods and products indicated in
•
this booklet.
Disconnect the main switch when the equipment is not used for long periods of time.
•
If other appliances that use gas or other fuels are being used at the same time (boiler, stove, fireplaces,
etc.), make sure the room where the fumes are extracted is well-ventilated, in compliance with the cur-
rent regulations.
