RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS

INSTALLATION

* The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or

improper installation.

* Please read this instruction manual before installing and using this cooker hood.

Properly keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future reference.

* This cooker hood can be used either in the Ducted Mode (ducting fumes to the

outside) or in the Recirculation Mode (internal recycling). The choice of modes can

be left to customers.

* Only a qualified and trained service technician can undertake the work of installation

and servicing.

* Check that the mains voltage corresponds to the one indicated on the rating plate

fixed inside the hood.

* Check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthing.

* Do not connect the hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion fumes (boilers,

fireplaces, etc.)

* If the hood is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e. g. gas burning

appliances), a sufficient degree of ventilation must be guaranteed in the room in order

to prevent the backflow of exhaust gas. The kitchen must have an opening directly

with the open air in order to guarantee the entry of clean air.

* The minimum distance is 750mm from the cooker hood to a gas hob, and is 650mm

to an electric hob. If the installation instructions for gas hobs specify a greater distance,

this must be taken into account.

NOTICE: Considering excessive weight, two or more people are required to install or

move this appliance. Failure to do so can cause physical injuries.

USE

* The cooker hood has been designed only for domestic use to eliminate kitchen

fumes.

* Never use the hood for purposes other than what it has been designed for.

* Never leave high naked flames under the hood when it is in operation.

* Adjust the flame intensity to direct it onto the bottom of the pan only; making sure

that it does not engulf the pan sides.

* Deep fat fryer must be continuously monitored during use: overheated oil can burst

into flame.

* The hood should not be used by children or person not instructed in its correct use.

MAINTENANCE

* Proper maintenance of the Range Hood will assure proper performance of the unit.

* Disconnect the hood from the main supply before carrying out any maintenance

work.

* Clean and/or replace aluminum grease filters and activated charcoal filters after

specified period of time.

* Clean the hood using a damp cloth and a neutral liquid detergent.

* DISPOSAL: Do not dispose this product as unsorted municipal waste. Collection of

such waste separately for special treatment is necessary.

WARNING!!

In certain circumstances electrical appliances may be a danger hazard.

* Do not check the status of the filters while the cooker hood is operating.

* Do not touch the light bulbs after appliance use.

* Do not disconnect the appliance with wet hands.

* Avoid free flame, as it is damaging for the filters and a fire hazard.

* Constantly check food frying to avoid that the overheated oil may become a fire

hazard.

* Disconnect the electrical plug prior to any maintenance.

* Children don’t recognize the risks of electrical appliances. Therefore use or keep the

appliance only under supervision of adults and out of the reach from children.

* Don’t use this product outdoor.

* This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced

physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless

they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a

person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they

do not play with the appliance.

* There shall be adequate ventilation of the room when the range hood is used at the

same time as appliances burning gas or other fuels.

* There is a fire risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with instructions.

* Do not flambé under the range hood.

* The discharge air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting

fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
