EXTRACTOR OR FILTERING HOOD INSTALLATION

Important: the figures are on the first pages of this booklet

• Fix the bracket on the rear of the hood near the coupling ring (Fig. 1.1a).

Note: the bracket can be adjusted horizontally, which enables the position of the hood to be adjusted (Fig. 1.1b).

• Mark a centre-line on the wall from the cooktop to the ceiling (Fig 2.2).

Taking into account the distances from the cooktop, mark the distance from the cooktop with a pencil and place the

template against the wall on the mark (Fig 2.3).

Then mark and drill the hole, insert the wall plug and partially tighten 1 screw (Fig. 2.4).

• Fix the flue support to the wall as close as possible to the ceiling (Fig 3.1). For filter hoods, also secure the deflector at this

stage (Fig 3.2).

Hang the hood on the partially tightened screw (Fig. 3.3a - if necessary, adjust the hood horizontally by means of the

bracket - Fig- 3.3b)

Mark the hood fixing points:

2 at the bottom: remove the grease filters (Fig. 3.4), 2 at the top on the sides of the bracket.

Remove the hood, drill, insert the wall plugs (Fig 3.5), refit the hood and firmly tighten all the screws (Fig.3.6 - Fig. 3.7).

Extractor Version: fumes are extracted and expelled to the outside through a fumes exhaust hose fixed to the collar at the top

of the hood and secured with the special clamp.

Important! If the hood is equipped with a carbon filter, this must be removed.

The discharge air must not be ducted to a flue used for removing fumes produced by appliances using gas or other fuels, but

must have a separate outlet. All national regulations on air discharge must be observed.

Filter Hood: Air is filtered through a carbon filter and recycled into the surrounding environment.

In this case, fit a fume hose between the collar on the hood and the deflector collar, using clamps.

Important! If the hood does not have a carbon filter, order one and fit it before use.

Telescopic flue installation

• Connect the hood to the mains supply and fix the telescopic flue to the flue bracket with two screws. Slide the bottom

section down into its seat on the top of the hood (Fig. 4).
