EN31

FILTER VERSION

One active charcoal ﬁlter is needed for this and can be obtained from your usual retailer.

The ﬁlter removes the grease and smells from the extracted air before sending it back into the room

through the upper outlet grid.

INSTALLATION

The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking equipment on the hob and the

lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 50cm from electric cookers and 65cm from gas or

mixed cookers.

If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

The mains power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If

provided with a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current regulations and positioned

in an accessible area, after installation. If it not ﬁtted with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug

is not located in an accessible area, after installation, apply a double pole switch in accordance with

standards which assures the complete disconnection of the mains under conditions relating to over-

current category III, in accordance with installation instructions.

Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and checking the ecient function,

always check that the mains cable is correctly assembled.

The hood is provided with a special power cable ; if the cable is damaged, request a new one from

Technical Service.

MOUNTING

Very heavy product; hood handling and installation must be carried out by at least two persons. Before

beginning installation:

• Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the chosen installation area.

• Remove the charcoal (*) ﬁlter/s if supplied (see also relative paragraph). This/these is/are to be

mounted only if you want lo use the hood in the ﬁltering version.

• Check (for transport reasons) that there is no other supplied material inside the hood (e.g. packets

with screws (*), guarantees (*), etc.), eventually removing them and keeping them.

• If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in range from cabinet opening to provide

easier access to rear wall/ceiling. Otherwise put a thick, protective covering over countertop,

cooktop or range to protect from damage and debris. Select a ﬂat surface for assembling the unit.

Cover that surface with a protective covering and place all canopy hood parts and hardware in it.

• In addition check whether near the installation area of the hood (in the area accessible also with the

hood mounted) an electric socket is available and it is possible to connect a fumes discharge device

to the outside (only suction version).

• Carry out all the masonry work necessary (e.g. installation of an electric socket and/or a hole for the

passage of the discharge tube).

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.
