WARNING:
indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could cause serious injury.
All safety warnings specify the potential danger/warning to which they refer and indicate how to reduce
the risk of injury, damage and electrical shock resulting from incorrect use of the appliance. Comply with
the following instructions:
• Installation or maintenance must be carried out by a specialized technician, in compliance with the
manufacturer’s instructions and local safety regulations. Do not repair or replace any part of the
appliance unless specifically requested in the user manual.
• The appliance must be disconnected from the power supply before carrying out any installation work.
• Earthing of the appliance is compulsory. (Not necessary for class II hoods identified by the symbol
on the specifications label).
• The power supply cable must be long enough to permit connecting the appliance to the mains socket
outlet.
• Do not pull the power supply cable in order to unplug the appliance.
• The electrical components must no longer be accessible to the user after installation.
• Do not touch the appliance with any wet part of the body and do not operate it when barefoot.
• This appliance may be used by children older than 8 years of age and by persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capacities or with inadequate experience and knowledge only if they are supervised
or if they have been taught how to use the appliance in conditions of safety and if they are aware of the
dangers involved. Children must not play with the appliance. Cleaning and maintenance must not be
carried out by children, unless they are supervised by adults.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically indicated in the manual. Defective
parts must be replaced using genuine parts. All other maintenance services must be carried out by a
specialized technician.
• Children must be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.
• When drilling through a wall or the ceiling, pay attention not to damage electric connections and/or
pipes.
• The ventilation ducts must always discharge to the outside.
• Exhaust air must not be vented through a flue used for removal of fumes produced by appliances
burning gas or other fuels, but must have a separate outlet. All national regulations governing
extraction of fumes must be observed.
GB3
• If the hood is used together with other appliances operating on gas or other fuels, the negative
pressure in the room must not exceed 4 Pa (4 x 10-5 bar). For this reason, make sure the room is
adequately ventilated.
• The Manufacturer declines any liability for improper use or incorrect setting of the controls.
• Regular cleaning and maintenance is essential to correct functioning and good performance of the
appliance. Frequently clean all encrustations from dirty surfaces to prevent the accumulation of grease.
Regularly clean or replace the filters.
• Never flame cook food (flambé) under the appliance. Using free flames might cause fire.
• Do not leave frying pans unattended when frying, as the frying oil may catch fire.
• Failure to observe the instructions for cleaning the hood and replacing the filters may result in a fire.
• The fume extractor hood must never be opened without the grease filters installed and it should be
kept under constant supervision.
• Gas appliances must be used under the extractor hood only with pans resting.
• When using more than three gas cooking points, the hood should be operating at power level 2 or
greater. This will eliminate heat congestion in the appliance.
• Before touching the bulbs, first ensure that they are cold.
• Do not use or leave the hood without its lamps correctly installed - risk of electric shock.
• Wear work gloves for all installation and maintenance operations.
• The product is not suitable for outdoor use.

INSTALLATION
After unpacking the appliance, check for any transport damage. In the event of problems, contact the dealer or your nearest After-sales Service. To prevent any
damage, only remove the appliance from its polystyrene foam packaging at the time of installation.
PREPARING FOR INSTALLATION
WARNING:
this is a heavy product; the hood should only be lifted and installed by two or more people.
The minimum distance between the support of the cooking pans on top of the cooker and the bottom of the hood must not be less than 50 cm for electric
cookers and 70 cm for gas or mixed cookers. Before installation also check the minimum distances stated in the manual of the cooker.
If the installation instructions for the cooker specify a greater distance between cooker and hood, this distance must be observed.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Make sure the power voltage specified on the appliance rating plate is the same as the mains voltage.
This information may be found on the inside of the hood, under the grease filter.
Power cable replacement (type H05 VV-F 3 x 0,75 mm²) must be carried out by a qualified electrician. Contact an authorized service centre.
If the hood is fitted with an electric plug, connect the plug to a socket complying with current regulations, located in an accessible place after installation. If no
plug is fitted (direct wiring to the mains), or if the socket is not located in an accessible place, install a standardised double pole power switch that will enable
complete isolation from the mains in case of category III overvoltage conditions, in accordance with installation rules.
If the cable is not fitted with a plug, connect the wires according to the following table:
