directly with the open air in order to guarantee

the entry of clean air. When the cooker hood is

used in conjunction with appliances supplied

with energy other than electric, the negative

pressure in the room must not exceed 0,04

mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back into

replaced from the manufacturer or its service
