PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL
RECOMMENDATIONS
IMPORTANT!
The appliance is not intended for use by children or

supervised or instructed in its use by a person responsible
for their safety.
Children must be supervised so that they do not play with

1. Do not connect the appliance to the power supply until
installation has been completed. Always disconnect the hood
before any cleaning or maintenance, by unplugging it or turning
off the main switch in the home.
2. Do not "flambé" food under the hood. Naked flames could
cause a fire.
3. Do not leave pans unattended when frying, since the cooking oil
could catch fire.
4. Regular cleaning and maintenance is essential for proper hood
operation and good performance. Regularly clean all
encrustations from dirty surfaces. Regularly clean the filter or
replace it if necessary. Do not use flammable materials to duct
the extracted air.
5. If the hood is used together with other appliances operating on
gas or other fuels, the negative pressure in the room must not
exceed 4Pa (4 x 10-5 bar). Therefore, make sure the room is
adequately ventilated.
6. The air extracted by the hood must not be removed through the
flue of the heating system or other appliances that use gas or
other fuels.
7. The room must be adequately ventilated when the hood is used
together with appliances operating on gas or other fuels.
8. Make sure lamps are cold before touching them.
9. The discharge air must not be ducted in a flue used for removing
fumes produced by appliances operating on gas or other fuels,
but must have a separate outlet.
All national regulations on air discharge must be observed.
10. The hood is not a shelf, therefore do not overload or place
objects on it.
11. Do not use or leave the hood without its lamps correctly fitted
otherwise there is risk of electric shock.
Note: Wear work gloves for all installation and maintenance
operations.

Electrical connection
The mains voltage must match that given on the dataplate located
inside the hood. If provided with a plug, connect the hood to a
socket complying with current regulations and located in an
accessible area. If it does not have a plug (direct connection to the
power supply) or if the socket is not in an accessible place, fit a
suitable double-pole switch that ensures complete disconnection
from the power supply in category III overvoltage conditions,
complying with the installation rules.
IMPORTANT: Before reconnecting the hood circuit to the
power supply and checking correct operation, always make
sure the power cable is correctly fitted and that it was NOT
crushed in its housing during installation.
Cleaning the hood
Warning! Failure to remove oil/grease (at least once a month) could
result in fire.
Use a soft cloth with a neutral detergent. Never use abrasive
substances or alcohol.
Before using the hood
To ensure best use of your hood, please read these instructions
carefully and keep them for future reference.
The packing materials (plastic bags, polystyrene parts, etc.) are a
potential source of danger and must be kept out of the reach of
children.
Make sure the hood was not damaged during transport.
