DESCRIPTION
The hood may be in the filtering or the ducting version.
Filtering version (Fig. 1): The hood aspirates the kitchen air saturated with fumes and odours, purifies it through
the grease filters and charcoal filter and returns clean air into the room. For constant efficiency, the charcoal filter must
be replaced periodically. The charcoal filter is not supplied.
Ducting version (Fig. 2): The hood aspirates the kitchen air saturated with fumes and odours, passes it through the
grease filters and expels it to the outside through an outlet pipe. With this version the charcoal filter is not required. Decide
from the outset on the type of installation (filtering or ducting). For greater efficiency, we recommend you install the hood
in the ducting version (if possible).

INSTALLATION

It is advisable to entrust the installation operations to specialised personnel. Also follow carefully each step
of the assembly instructions, and once installation has been completed, make sure that the hood is firmly secured
in place.
1.
Before proceeding with the installation operations, remove the grease filters to make it easier to handle the
hood: grip the knob and push it towards the opposite side of the filter and turn the filter outwards (Fig. 3).
2.
Arrange the electrical power supply within the decorative flue dimensions.
3.
Should you install the ducting version, prepare the air vent hole and duct.
For optimal conditions in the ducting versions, use an air exhaust pipe with
the minimum indispensable length, the least possible number of elbows (maximum elbow angle: 90°), certified materials
(according to the country), and an as smooth as possible inside. It is also recommended to avoid drastic changes in the
pipe cross-section (diameter: 150 mm). Consider that the air vent of the hood is not on the longitudinal axis but is offset
by 36 mm to the right - see dimensions in Fig. 21.
4. Using the special drilling template, drill the holes for fixing to the ceiling on the vertical side of your hob. Carefully
observe all the indications for final positioning of the apparatus. Take into account that one of the template axes must
correspond to the axis of the hood controls. Fix the bracket to the ceiling using the screws and screw anchors provided
(Fig. 4). Be careful, because the position of the bracket determines the final position of the apparatus: the side with the
slot B corresponds to the side opposite the controls.
5. Assemble the plate of the electrical system fixing it with 2 screws (V) and 2 metal washers (Fig. 5).
6. Fit the 2 glass stops to the sides of the lower flue: screw in the screw working from the inside of the lower flue
an lock the glass stop (Fig. 6).
INSTALLING THE FILTERING VERSION:
7. Secure the telescopic structure to the bracket using 4 screws (provided), running the power cable through the
hole in the bracket (Fig. 7). Adjust the height of the telescopic structure using the 4 retaining screws C (Fig. 8) bearing
in mind that the height of the hood is 237 mm and that the distance of the hood from the hob must be at least 650 mm
(Fig.9).
8. Insert the air baffle (F) into the structure (Fig. 10) Through the openings G (Fig. 11), fit the flange (W) to the baffle
(F) and lock it with a rotary movement. Fit a flexible hose (125 mm diameter) to the flange (W) for air evacuation (Fig. 11).
9. Take the upper flue (the one with the round slots) and fit it on the telescopic structure with the slots at the top;
secure the flue to the bracket with 2 screws (Fig. 12). Take the lower flue and fit it in the same way as the upper flue;
slide it upwards and secure it in that position with some adhesive tape (Fig. 13).
10. Take the reducer (Fig. 5R) and fit it on the air vent of the hood, exercising slight pressure.
11. Secure the hood to the telescopic structure by means of 4 screws (provided) - Fig. 14.
12. Secure the air exhaust pipe to the reducer (R) through the openings H (Fig. 14).
13. Make the electrical connection by means of the power cable.
14. Remove the adhesive tape and let the lower flue slide down, gently resting it on the hood .
15. Secure the lower flue with 4 screws working from the inside of the hood (Fig. 15).
16. In the filtering version, a charcoal filter must be used. Check if it has been installed, and if not, install it by sliding
the 2 filter clips into place and turn it inwards (Fig. 16).
17. Fitting the grease drip trays: position the 2 drip trays inside the hood in proximity of the halogen lamps and move
the trays sideways towards the outside of the hood (Fig. 17). Proceed with fitting the other 2 trays in the same way, working
from the opposite side.
18. Fitting the glass panel: Fit the 2 plastic strips on the upper edge of the glass panel (Fig. 18); Position the glass
panel in the 2 glass stops and secure it to the hood with 2 screws and 4 washers (Fig. 18). Proceed with fitting the other
glass panel in the same way, working from the opposite side.
INSTALLING THE DUCTING VERSION:
7. Secure the telescopic structure to the bracket using 4 screws (provided), passing the air exhaust pipe inside the
telescopic structure and running the power cable through the hole in the bracket (Fig. 7). Adjust the height of the telescopic
