PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Always disconnect the hood before cleaning or carrying out maintenance by unplugging it or switching off the power supply. [. . . ] Regular maintenance guarantees smooth hood operation and high performance. If the hood is used in extractor mode together with cookers, ambient negative pressure must not exceed 4 Pa (4 x 10-5 bars). If the hood is used together with non-electrically powered appliances, ambient negative pressure must not exceed 4Pa (4 x 10-5 bars). For this reason, make sure the room is adequately ventilated. The room must be adequately ventilated when the hood is used together with appliances powered by gas or other fuels. Never use flammable materials as hoses for extracted air. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the After-Sales Service or a qualified electrician in order to avoid hazards. Note: always wear work gloves for all installation and maintenance operations.

Pull out the steam drawer (depending on model). Turn the speed selector to the required speed setting according to the quantity of fumes and steam to be extracted. Never try to carry out any repair by yourself other than fixing the above-mentioned problems. 9 AFTER-SALES SERVICE Before calling Technical Assistance 1. Check to see if you can fix the problem yourself (see “Troubleshooting Guide”). Switch the hood off for a few minutes then switch it back on and see if the problem has gone. If the problem persists, call Technical Assistance. Specify: • the nature of the problem, • the model, • your full address, • your telephone number and area code. • The service code (number below the word SERVICE on the rating plate inside the hood behind the grease filter). INSTALLATION When installing the hood, the minimum distances from the cooktop must be respected, and the numerical sequence and additional instructions must be followed exactly as indicated on the Installation sheet. If the installation instructions for a gas cooker specify a greater distance, then this distance must be observed. The exhaust pipe and clamps are not supplied and must be bought separately. External Exhaust Mode ( - see also installation sheet) Cooking fumes and vapours are conveyed outside through a duct connected to the hood by means of a collar. The outlet duct diameter must be the same as that of the collar. If a flue-damper is to be installed, check that it can open and close freely when installation of the exhaust duct is complete. The hood can be supplied with one (upper) or two (upper and rear) exhaust outlet holes. A The hood is usually set up for using the upper exhaust outlet. 1. [. . . ] Use the rear exhaust outlet (where present). Where fitted, remove the cover closing off the rear outlet and collar. Some models are fitted with a plastic deflector that closes off the rear outlet. Put the cover (if fitted) in the upper outlet. Warning! [. . . ]
