(including those in other rooms) due to the backflow of com-
bustion gases. These gases can cause carbon monoxide pois-
oning. After installing a kitchen extractor hood or any other
cooking fume extractor, make sure that the gas appliances are
tested by a certified technician to guarantee that there is no
backflow of combustion gases.

General information

Use
• Switch off or unplug the appliance from the
mains supply before carrying out any main-
tenance work.
• The top of the hood must not to be used as
a shelf.

tractor hood when it is on.

Installation method
The hood has been designed for installation
and use in the "suction version" or in the "air
recirculation version".
Extraction version (see symbol in the
installation instructions)
Cooking steam is suctioned and channelled
outside the house through a discharge duct
(not supplied), fitted to the hood steam
outlet. Make sure that the outlet duct is
properly installed at the air outlet, using a
suitable connection system.
Air recirculation version (see symbol in
the installation instructions)
The air is filtered through one or more
carbon filters, and then resent into the room.
Important: Ensure appropriate air circulation
around the hood.
Important: If the hood is supplied without
carbon filters and installed on recirculation
mode, these must be fitted before the hood
can be used. The filters are commercially
available.
The hood should be installed away from
particularly dirty areas, windows, doors and
heat sources. Wall mounting accessories are
not included as they vary depending on the
wall material. Use fixing systems suitable for
the walls of your home and for the weight of
the appliance. For further details, contact a
specialist dealer. Keep this booklet for future
consultation.
