Safety instructions
• Please be aware of current local regulations
with reference to domestic electrical fittings
and gas eduction.
• Verify that the tension and frequency of the
network match those indicated on the label
located inside the kitchen hood.
• The appliance must be connected to the
network using a break switch with a universal
cut off and minimum contact separation of 3
mm.
• Once the kitchen hood has been installed,
ensure that the mains cable to the network is
not in contact with any live metal edges.
• Avoid connecting the appliance to conductors
used as exits for fumes produced by a non-
electric energy source, e.g.: boilers, chimneys,
etc.
• If the extractor fan is going to be used
simultaneously with equipment powered by a
non-electric energy source, e.g.: gas cookers,
then the room must have sufficient ventilation.
Excessive fat accumulation in the kitchen hood
and metal filters is a fire risk and may also cause
dripping, therefore the inside of the kitchen hood
and the metal filters must be cleaned at least
once a month.
• The lower part of the kitchen hood must be
fitted at least 50 cm. over electric hobs and 65
cm. over gas or mixed hobs. FOLLOW THE
HOBS´ MANUFACTURER’S MINIMUM
RECOMMENDATIONS fig.5a/6a.
• Never leave gas hobs lit if not covered by a
container. The fat accumulated in the filters
may drip or catch fire when the temperature
increases.
• Avoid cooking under the kitchen hood if the
metal filters are not fitted, e.g.: while they are
being cleaned in the dishwasher.
• You must not produce flames under the kitchen
hood.

manipulation, e.g. during cleaning or
