1. RECOMMENDATIONS AND
SUGGESTIONS
• The Instructions for Use apply to several
versions of this appliance. Accordingly, you
may find descriptions of individual features
that do not apply to your specific appliance.
• The manufacturer will not be held liable for
any damages resulting from incorrect or
improper installation.
• The minimum safety distance between the
cooker top and the extractor hood is 650 mm
(some models can be installed at a lower
height, please refer to the paragraphs on
working dimensions and installation).
• Check that the mains voltage corresponds
to that indicated on the rating plate fixed to
the inside of the hood.
• For Class I appliances, check that the do-
mestic power supply guarantees adequate
earthing.
• Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue
through a pipe of minimum diameter 120
mm. The route of the flue must be as short
as possible.
• Do not connect the extractor hood to exhaust
ducts carrying combustion fumes (boilers,
fireplaces, etc.).
• If the extractor is used in conjunction with
non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas burning
appliances), a sufficient degree of aeration
must be guaranteed in the room in order to
prevent the backflow of exhaust gas. The
kitchen must have an opening communi-
cating 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 the room by
the cooker hood.
• In the event of damage to the power cable,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer or
by the technical service department, in order
to prevent any risks.
• Connect the hood to the mains through a
two-pole switch having a contact gap of at
least 3 mm.
• If the instructions for installation for the gas
hob specify a greater distance specified
above, this has to be taken into account.
Regulations concerning the discharge of air
have to be fulfilled.
2. USE
• The extractor hood has been designed
exclusively for domestic use to eliminate
kitchen smells.
• Never use the hood for purposes other than
for which it has been designed.
• Never leave high naked flames under the
hood when it is in operation.
• Adjust the flame intensity to direct it onto the
bottom of the pan only, making sure that it
does not engulf the sides.
• Deep fat fryers must be continuously moni-
tored during use: overheated oil can burst
into flames.
• Do not flambè under the range hood; risk
of fire.
• This appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruc-
tion concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
• "CAUTION: Accessible parts may become
hot when used with cooking appliances".
