hood body B.
3 - Fix the glass panel securely to the cooker hood body using
the 4 sleeves C and 4 screws D as indicated.
• Fixing to the wall
Drill the holes A respecting the distances indicated (Fig.2). Fix
the appliance to the wall and align it in horizontal position
to the wall units. When the appliance has been adjusted,
definitely fix the hood using the screws A (Fig. 5 - Stage 2). For
the various installations use screws and screw anchors suited
to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced concrete, plasterboard,
etc.). If the screws and screw anchors are provided with the
product, check that they are suitable for the type of wall on
which the hood is to be fixed.
• Fixing the decorative telescopic flue - extractor version
warning! Before fixing the appliance in place, take the lower
connector and use a pair of pliers to bend the tab inwards, as
shown in figure 5, stage 1.
Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimensions
of the decorative flue. If your appliance must be installed as
an extractor version, make sure an air exhaust hole has been
prepared. Adjust the width of the support bracket of the upper
flue (Fig.3). Then fix it to the ceiling using the screws A (Fig.3)
in such a way that it is in line with your hood and respecting
the distance from the ceiling indicated in Fig.2. Connect the
flange C to the air exhaust hole using a connection pipe (Fig. 5
- Stage 2). Insert the upper flue into the lower flue. Fix the lower
flue to the hood using the screws B provided (Fig. 5 - Stage
2), extract the upper flue up to the bracket and fix it with the
screws B (Fig.3). Remove the charcoal filters already fitted to
the appliance by turning them 90° anticlockwise (Fig. 7).
• Filtering version
Install the hood and the two flues as described in the
paragraph for installation of the hood in ducting version.
The charcoal filters are already fitted to the appliance.

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).
- To prevent potential fire hazards, the anti-grease filters should
be washed a minimum of every 2 months (it is possible to use
the dishwasher for this task).
- After a few washes, the colour of the filters 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 fre-
quency with which the appliance is used, the type of cooking
performed and the regularity with which the anti-grease
filters are cleaned.
• Clean the cooker hood frequently, both inside and outside,
using a cloth which has been dampened with denatured
alcohol or neutral, non-abrasive liquid detergents.
• 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 halogen light bulbs (Fig. 8).
To replace the halogen light bulbs B, remove the glass pane
C using a lever action on the relevant cracks.
Replace the bulbs with new ones of the same type.
Caution: do not touch the light bulb with bare hands.
• Commands: (fig.9A) mechanical the key symbols are
explained below:
A = LIGHT
B = OFF
C = SPEED I
D = SPEED II
E = SPEED III
G = MOTOR WORKING indicator
• Commands: (fig.9 B) luminous the key symbols are ex-
plained below:
A = LIGHT
B = OFF
C = SPEED I
D = SPEED II
E = SPEED III
F = AUTOMATIC STOP TIMER - 15 minutes
• By pressing key F for two seconds (with the hood switched
off ) the "clean air" function is activated.
This function switches the appliance on for ten minutes every
hour at the first speed.
As soon as this function is activated the motor starts up at the
first speed for ten minutes, During this time key F and key C
must flash at the same time.
After ten minutes the motor switches off and the LED of key
F remains switched on with a fixed light until the motor starts
up again at the first speed after fifty minutes and keys F and
C start to flash again for ten minutes and so on.
By pressing any key for the exclusion of the hood light the
hood will return immediately to its normal functioning (e.g.
if key D is pressed the "clean air" function is deactivated and
the motor moves to the 2nd speed straight away. By pressing
key B the function is deactivated).
• Active carbon/grease filter saturation:
- When button A flashes at a frequency of 2 seconds, the
grease filters must be cleaned.
- When button A flashes at a frequency of 0.5 seconds, the
carbon filters must be replaced.
After the clean filter has been replaced, the electronic memory
must be reset by pressing button A for approximately 5
seconds, until the light on the button stops flashing.
