DESCRIPTION
---------------------------------------------------
This appliance consists of a telescopic struc-
ture, a hood and telescopic flue which covers
the telescopic structure itself.
The appliance can be used in both the filtering
and ducting version.
In the Filtering version (Fig. 1), the air and
vapours conveyed by the appliance are depu-
rated by carbon filters and recirculated around
the room through the air vents of the flue.
ATTENTION: When using the Filtering version,
two carbon filters must be installed plus an air
switch A (Fig. 1). Positioned in the upper part
of the structure, this allows the air to be
recirculated throughout the room.
In the Ducting version (Fig. 2), cooking va-
pours and odours are conveyed directly to the
exterior through an outlet flue which exits from
top or back of the apparatus and through the
ceiling. Use of carbon filters is therefore unnec-
essary.
INSTALLATION
---------------------------------------------------
It is advised to follows carefully all the as-
sembling steps and to make sure, once the
assembling operation is over, that the ap-
pliance is fixed steadily; it is moreover ad-
vised to have skilled workers to assemble
it.
Remove the anti-grease filters before proceed-
ing with the assembly instructions.
This will make the appliance easier to handle.
To remove the anti-grease filters (Fig. 3): this
is carried out by pushing the relative catch in-
wards and turning it downwards until it disen-
gages from the supports.
Proceed with these instructions in reverse when
refitting the filters.
The following operations are essential for
assembly:
– Install the wiring system within the decora-
tive pipe.
– Prepare the air venting hole if your applian-
ce is to be installed in the Ducting version.
Once having established the desired position,
assemble the equipment in the following way:
INSTALLING THE DUCTING VERSION:
Using the relative boring template, make holes
in the ceiling in alignment with your hob.
Mind thet one of the axes of the boring tem-
plate must be in correspondence with the axis
of the controls of the hood.
Since this model can dispose of stale air from
either the top or side, position the telescopic
structure through openings A or B (Fig. 4) as
required, in compliance with the following in-
structions:
– The side of the structure with opening B
(Fig. 4) must always point towards a short
side of the hood.
Fix the telescopic structure to the ceiling using
the larger diameter washers and screws, to-
gether with the screw anchors supplied with
the hood, after having made the air hole and
installed the wiring system within the upper
telescopic flue.
Adjust the height of the telescopic structure by
means of the four fixing screws D (Fig. 4).
Remember that the hood is 345 mm in height
and that it must be at least 650 mm from the
hob (Fig. 5).
Prepare the air disposal pipe and the electric
power cable.
Insert the upper telescopic flue into the struc-
ture.
Fix the upper telescopic flue to the plate of the
structure anchored to the ceiling by means of
the two screws A (Fig. 6).
Push in the lower telescopic flue right up to the
top, partially tightening screws B (Fig. 6) and
temporarily resting the pipe on these. During this
operation, check that the fixing holes C (Fig. 6) of
the lower telescopic flue point downwards.
Fix the hood to the lower plate of the telescopic
structure using the four supplied nuts and rela-
tive washers (Fig. 7).
If the model you bought requires it you have to
insert the two plastic spacing bars (Fig. 6D)
into the side pitches of the telescopic structure.
The spacing bars are supplied.
Apply air union flange A (Fig. 8) to the hood
through the lower part of opening B (Fig. 4) on
the structure.
Fix the previously installed air disposal flue to
the union flange on the hood and make the
relative electrical connections.
WARNING
---------------------------------------------------
The distance between the hob and the lower
part of the hood must be at least 65 cm.
The air collected must not be conveyed into
a duct used to blow off smokes from ap-
pliances fed with an energy other than elec-
tricity (central heating systems, ther-
mosiphons, water-heaters, etc.).
Comply with the official instructions provided
by the competent authorities in merit when
installing the disposal duct. In addition,
exhaust air should not be discharged into a
wall cavity, unless the cavity is designed
for that purpose.
The room must be well aerated in case a
hood and some other heat equipment fed
with an energy other than electricity (gas,
oil, coal heaters, etc) operate at the same
time.
In fact the intake hood, disposing of air, could
create a vacuum in the room. The vacuum
should not exceed 0,04mbar. This prevents
the gas exhausted by the heat source from
being intaken again. It is therefore advisable
to ensure the room contains air taps able to
ensure a steady flow of fresh air.
ATTENTION: This appliance must be
grounded.
The following warning is valid in the United
Kingdom only:
As the colours of the wires in the mains
lead of this appliance may not correspond
with the coloured markings identifying the
terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
– the wire which is coloured green and
yellow must be connected to the termi-
nal in the plug which is marked with the
letter E or by the earth symbol [ ], or
coloured green or green and yellow;
– the wire which is coloured blue must be
connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter N or coloured black;
– the wire which is coloured brown must
be connected to the terminal which is
marked with the letter L or coloured red.
English
When making the electrical connections,
check that the current socket has a ground
connection and that the voltage values cor-
respond to those indicated on the data plate
inside the appliance itself.
In case your appliance is not furnished with
a non separating flexible cable and has no
plug, or has not got any other device ensu-
ring omnipolar disconnection from the elec-
tricity main, with a contact opening distance
of at least 3 mm, such separating device
ensuring disconnection from the main must
be included in the fixed installation.
Always switch off the electricity supply be-
fore carrying out any cleaning or servicing
operations on the appliance.
USE
---------------------------------------------------
Avoid using materials which could cause
spurts of flame (flambées) near the ap-
pliance.
When frying, take particular care to prevent
oil and grease from catching fire. Already
used oil is especially dangerous in this re-
spect. Do not use uncovered electric grates.
To avoid possible risks of fire always com-
ply with the indicated instructions when
cleaning anti-grease filters and when re-
moving grease deposits from the appliance.
MAINTENANCE
---------------------------------------------------
Thorough servicing guarantees correct and
long-lasting operation.
Particular care must be paid to the anti-
grease filters which must be periodically
cleaned in relation to use (at least once
every two months). Remove the anti-grease
filters and wash them either by hand or in
the dishwasher using neutral detergent.
Use lukewarm water and neutral detergent
to clean painted appliances. Never use
products containing abrasives.
Take great care to prevent the use of cor-
rosive or abrasive products when cleaning
steel, copper or brass appliances. It is advi-
sable to use specialized products accord-
ing to the manufacturer’s instructions.
