INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Assembly and electrical connections must be carried out by specialised personnel. [. . . ] € The minimum distance between the support surfaces of the cooking pots on the cooker top and the lowest part of the cooker hood must be at least 65 cm (Fig. If a connection tube composed of two parts is used, the upper part must be placed outside the lower part. Do not connect the cooker hood exhaust to the same conductor used to circulate hot air or for evacuating fumes from other appliances generated by other than an electrical source. Before proceeding with the assembly operations, remove the anti-grease filter(s) (Fig. 6) so that the unit is easier to handle. - In the case of assembly of the appliance in the suction version prepare the hole for evacuation of the air. € We recommend the use of an air exhaust tube which 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) Selection of the version (extraction or filtration) • 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. 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. [. . . ] 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 antigrease 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. [. . . ]
