has the same diameter as the air exhaust outlet hole. If a
pipe with a smaller diameter is used, the efficiency of the
product may be reduced and its operation may become
noisier.
• Installation
The following instruction should be followed to carry out
the correct installation of the cooker hood.
1) Mounting of the cooker hood on the lower side of the
cupboard.
2) Choosing the version (extractor, fig. 1A, or filter, fig.
1B).
• Fixing the hood to the lower part of the wall cabinet
This type of appliance must be fitted inside a cabinet or
inside another type of support structure.
The overall measurements of the cooker hood are given
in figure 2. Before proceeding with cooker hood
installation, remove grille D by pressing the two side
buttons A, as shown in figure 3.
Fix the appliance in place using 4 screws B (not supplied)
which are suited to the type of cabinet.
After fixing the cooker hood to the lower part of the
cabinet, place grille D (fig. 3) back in the correct position.
During this procedure, make sure that grille D is fastened
properly.
• Extraction through an outside wall
The appliance expels the fumes through an outside wall
or a duct. It is necessary to buy a telescopic pipe in
accordance with the standards in use (inflammable) and
connect it to flange H (Fig 1A).
• Recirculation
To transform an extractor hood version into a filter hood
version, contact your appliance dealer and ask for active
charcoal filters.
The filters should be fitted to the extraction assembly
inside the hood, by centring them and rotating them 90
degrees, until they click into place (fig. 5).
To perform this operation, first remove grille D (fig. 3).
The air is released back into the room through air exhaust
piping which passes through the cabinet and is connected
to flange H (fig. 1B).
Use and maintenance
• We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on
before any food is cooked. We also recommend that the
appliance is left running for 15 minutes after the food is
cooked, in order to thoroughly eliminate all contaminated
air.
The effective performance of the cooker hood depends
on constant maintenance; the anti-grease filter and the
active carbon filter both require special attention.
• The anti-grease filter is used to trap any grease particles
suspended in the air, therefore is subject to saturation
(the time it takes for the filter to become saturated
depends on the way in which the appliance is used).
The acrylic filter, which is found resting on the grille,
should be replaced when the text, visible through the
grille, changes colour and the ink spreads; the new filter
should be fitted in such a way that the text can be seen
through the grille from outside the cooker hood.
If the filters do not have any text on them, or if metal
filters or aluminium panel filters are used, they should
be washed every 2 months in order to prevent the risk of
fire. To wash the filters, proceed as follows:
- Remove the filter from the grille and wash it using a
solution of water and neutral liquid detergent, leaving
the dirt to soften.
- Rinse thoroughly with warm water and leave to dry.
The metal filters and/or aluminium panel are also
dishwasher safe. If the filters are made using aluminium,
or if an aluminium panel is used, after a few washes the
colour may change. This does not mean they have to be
replaced.
If the replacement and washing instructions are not
followed, the anti-grease filters may present a fire hazard.
• The active carbon filters are used to purify the air which
is released back into the room. The filters are not
washable or re-usable and must be replaced at least once
every four months.
The active carbon filter saturation level depends on the
frequency with which the appliance is used, the type of
cooking performed and the regularity with which the anti-
grease filters are cleaned.
• Remove build-up from the fan and other surfaces of the
cooker hood regularly using a cloth moistened with
denatured alcohol or non-abrasive neutral liquid
detergent.
• The light on the cooker hood is designed for use during
cooking and not for general room illumination. Extended
use of the light reduces the average duration of the bulb.
• Replacing the acrylic or metal panels
To replace the acrylic or metal panels, first remove grille
D by pressing the two side buttons A, as shown in figure
3. Remove the two filter clips B (fig. 4) and the acrylic or
metal panel C.
To reassemble the part, simply perform the procedure in
reverse.
