Consult the designs in the front pages referenced in the text
by alphabet letters. Closely follow the instructions set
out in this manual. All responsibility, for any eventual
inconveniences, damages or fires caused by not complying
with the instructions in this manual, is declined.
The cooker hood must be placed at a minimum distance of
50 cm from the cooking plane for electric cookers and 75cm
for gas or mixed cookers.
The hood can be installed above these heights but for
optimum performance it should be installed at the distance
quoted for the appropriate heat source.
Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface
mounting only.
The hood is equipped with a top air outlet B for discharge
of fumes to the outside (Ducting version – exhaust pipe
and pipe fixing clamps not provided).
Should it not be possible to discharge cooking fumes and
vapour to the outside, the hood can be used in the filter
version, fitting an activated carbon filter and the deflector F
on the support (bracket) G, fumes and vapours are recycled
through the top grille H by means of an exhaust pipe
connected to the top air outlet B and the connection ring
mounted on the deflector F (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing
clamps not provided).
The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting
mode, and must be connected to an external suction device
(not supplied).
Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to
most types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician
must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the
type of wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough
to take the weight of the hood.
Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall.
Surface mounting only.
Installation - Fig. 5-6-7-8
Preliminary information for installing the hood
During electrical connection ensure the power supply is
disconnected at the domestic main switch.
1. Adjust extension of the hood support structure, as the final
height of the hood depends on this, and remember that
with installation completed the hood must be at least 50
cm above the cook-top for electric cookers and 75 cm
for gas or mixed cookers.
2. Fix the two sections of the structure using 8 screws.
3. Place the ceiling hole diagram directly above the cook-
top (the center of the diagram must match the center of
the cook-top and the edges must be parallel to the sides
of the cook-top – the side of the diagram with the wording
FRONT corresponds to the control panel side). Prepare
the electrical connection.
4. Drill as shown (6 holes for 6 wall plugs – 4 plugs for
fixture), screw the outer screws leaving a space of about
1 cm. between the screw head and the ceiling.
5. Fit an exhaust pipe inside the truss and connect it to the
motor compartment connection ring (exhaust pipe and
fixing brackets are not supplied).
6. Hook the frame onto the 4 screws (see step 4).
CAUTION! The side of the truss with connection box
corresponds to the side of the control panel with hood
assembled.
7. Tighten the 4 screws.
8. Insert and tighten another 2 screws in the remaining free
holes for secure fixing.
9. Carry out the electrical connection to the mains power
supply, only turn on the power supply upon completion
of assembly.
10. For extractor versions (10A), connect the other end of
the exhaust pipe to the flue.
For filter versions (10F), fit deflector F to the truss and
secure it to the bracket supplied using 4 screws, then
connect the exhaust pipe to the connection ring located
on the deflector.
11. Remove the fixing tabs placed on the lower part of the
chimney flue, set aside the tabs and screws.
12. Apply the tabs to the inside of the upper section of the
chimney flue using one screw for each tab.
13. Fix the upper sections of the telescopic chimney flue
(13a) to the pylon (13b).
The upper sections are recognizable by the air exit
perforations for use in the filter version.
14. Block the sections with 2 screws (14a) to be inserted on
the tabs already mounted on one section of the chimney
flue (14b – see also the mounting sequence 11 -12).
15. Remove the grease filter and slide in the lower section
of the cooker hood (during this operation slightly widen
the two sections to ease the insertion).
The front side of the cooker hood is recognizable by the
slit opening provided for the control panel.
Attention! During this operation ensure to extract the
control panel plate and the electrical connection cables
for the lamps through the slit opening.
16. Fix the lower section of the cooker hood to the pylon from
the bottom using 6 screws (16a), and on the sides using
4 screws (16b).
17. Introduce the cables CONNECTED to the lamps and
connect the control panel to the plate.
ATTENTION!
THE PLATE CABLE CONNECTOR IS PROVIDED
WITH A SIDE PIN THAT MUST COINCIDE WITH THE
PERFORATION FOUND ON THE SIDE OF THE
CONNECTOR LOCATED ON THE BACK OF THE
CONTROL PANEL.
18. The double sided adhesive tape supplied should be cut
into 8 segments, then remove the protection covering
from both sides and apply the segments close to the
screws that fix the chimney flues to the structure (see
illustration for correct positioning).
19. Apply the 4 masks (supplied) to cover the fixing points
of the lower sections of the chimney flue (ATTENTION
THE MASKS FOR THE LOWER CHIMNEY FLUE ARE
RECOGNIZABLE BY THEIR NARROWER WIDTH).
The wider masks are to be used for the upper chimney
flue, and should be cut to size.
20. Hook the control panel to the opening slit so that the ON/
OFF light switch is facing downwards.
Remount the grease filter, turn on the power supply via the
central electrical panel and check that the cooker hood
functions correctly.
