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 ducting system for this appliance must not be connected to any existing 

ventilation system which is being used for any other purpose such as discharging 

exhaust fumes from appliances burning gas 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 ignite. 

Accessible parts of the hood may became hot when used with cooking 

appliance. 

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 local 

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. 

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION 

The mains power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate 

situated inside the hood. If provided with a plug connect the hood to a socket in 

compliance with current regulations and positioned in an accessible area, after 

installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not 

located in an accessible area, after installation,  apply a double pole switch in 

accordance with standards which assures the complete disconnection of the 

mains under conditions relating to over-current category III, in accordance with 

installation instructions. 

Warning!

 Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and 

checking the efficient function, always check that the mains cable is correctly 

assembled. 

Replacing the power cable 

Warning! 

Power cable replacement must be undertaken  by the authorised 

service assistance centre or similar qualified person. 

AIR VENT 

(for the suction versions) 

Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a diameter equivalent to 

the air outlet (connection flange). 

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.  

! 

Use a duct of the minimum indispensible length. 

! 

Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum elbow angle: 90°). 

! 

Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section. 

! 

Use a duct with an as smooth as possible inside. 

! 

The duct must be made of certified material. 

!

The company declines any responsibility whenever these regulations are 

not respected. 

FILTERING OR DUCTING ? 

!

Your cooker hood is ready to be used in suction version. 

To use the hood in filtering version the special ACCESSORY KIT must be 

installed. 

Check on the first pages of this manual if the ACCESSORY KIT is furnished 

or must be bought separately. 

Note:

 If furnished, in certain cases, the additional activated carbon filtering 

system may be installed on the hood. 

Information about the conversion of the hood from suction version to filtering 

version is present in this manual. 

  Ducting version 

In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the building by means of a 

special pipe connected with the connection ring located on top of the hood. 

Attention

! The exhausting pipe is not supplied and must be purchased apart. 

Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to that of the connection ring. 

In the horizontal runs the exhausting pipe must be slightly slanted (about 10°) 

and directed upwards to vent the air easily from the room to the outside. 

Attention! If the hood is supplied with active charcoal filter, then it must be 

removed. 

  Filter version 

Order and install 2 active carbon filters (active carbon filters are available from 

your dealer). 

The filter removes the grease and smells from the extracted air before sending it 

back into the room through the upper outlet grid.

connector fuse.  

Or if the appliance has been connected through a plug and socket, then the plug 

must be removed from the socket. 

Cleaning 

The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly (at least with the same frequency 

with which you carry out maintenance of the fat filters) internally and externally.  

Clean using the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. Do not use 

abrasive products. 

DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!

WARNING: 

Failure to carry out the basic cleaning recommendations of the 

cooker hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks.  

Therefore, we recommend observing these instructions. 

The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to the motor or any 

fire damage linked to inappropriate maintenance or failure to observe the above 

safety recommendations. 

Maintenance of the anti-grease filters 

Traps cooking grease particles. 

The grease filter

 must be cleaned once a month using non aggressive 

detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set to a low 

temperature and a short cycle.  When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter 

may discolour slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity. 

To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle. 

Maintenance of the charcoal filter 

It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking. 

The saturation of the 

charcoal filter

 occurs after more or less prolonged use, 

depending on the type of cooking and the regularity of cleaning of the grease 

filter. 

In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least every four mounths. 

The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or regenerated.
