c) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should
not be allowed to accumulate on fan or lter.
d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware ap-
propriate for the size of the surface element.
WARNING:TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO
PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE
FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWINGa:
a) SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-tting lid, cook-
ie sheet, or metal tray, then turn o the burner.
BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the ames
do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL
THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
b) NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be
burned.
c) DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths
or towels – a violent steam explosion will result.
d) Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
1) You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher,
and you already know how to operate it.
2) The re is small and contained in the area

a Based on "Kitchen Firesafety Tips" published by
NFPA.
Before cleaning or carrying out mainte-
nance operations, disconnect the equip-
ment by removing the plug or switching
o the main switch.
Do not use the hood with wet hands or bare feet.
Always check that all electrical parts (lights, extractor
fan) are off when the equipment is not being used.
The maximum overall weight of any objects placed
or hung (if applicable) on the hood must not exceed
3lb 5 oz (1.5 Kg).
Always supervise the cooking process during the use
of deep-fryers: Overheated oil can catch fire.
Do not leave open, unattended flames under the
hood.
Do not prepare food over an open flame under the
hood.
Never use the hood without the metal anti-grease
filters: in this case, grease and dirt will deposit in the
equipment and compromise its operation.
Accessible parts of the hood can be hot when used at
the same time as the cooking appliances.
Do not carry out any cleaning operations when parts
of the hood are still hot.
There can be a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out
according to the instructions and products indicated
in this booklet.
Disconnect the main switch when the equipment is
not used for long periods of time.
If other appliances that use gas or other fu-
els are being used at the same time (boiler,
stove, replaces, etc.), make sure the room
where the fumes are discharged is well-ventilat-
ed, in compliance with the local regulations.
INSTALLATION
intended only for qualied personnel
Before installing the hood, carefully read the section 'SAFETY IN-
STRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS'.
TECHNICAL FEATURES
The technical specifications are exhibited on the labels located inside the hood.
POSITIONING
The minimum distance between the highest part of the cooking equip-
ment and the lowest part of the hood is indicated in the installation in-
structions.
Do not install the hood outdoors and do not expose it to outdoor environment
(rain, wind, etc.).
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
(intended only for qualied personnel)
Disconnect the equipment from electrical mains power supply be-
fore carrying out any operations on the hood.
Ensure that the wires inside the hood are not disconnected or cut:
in the event of damage, contact your nearest Servicing Department.
Refer to qualied personnel for electrical connections.
Connection must be carried out in compliance with the provisions of law
in force.
Before connecting the hood to the electrical mains power supply, check that:
• voltage supply corresponds with what is reported on the data plate located
inside the hood;
• the electrical system is compliant and can withstand the load (see the techni-
cal specifications located inside the hood);
• the power supply plug and cable do not come into contact with tempera-
tures exceeding 158°F (70 °C);
• the power supply system is effectively and properly connected to earth in
compliance with regulations in force;
• the socket used to connect the hood is within reach.
In case of:
• devices fitted with cables without a plug: the type of plug to use is a ''stand-
ardised'' one. The wires must be connected as follows: yellow-green for
grounding, blue for neutral and brown for the live. The plug must be con-
nected to an adequate safety socket.
• fixed equipment not provided with a power supply cable and plug, or any
other device that ensures disconnection from the electrical mains, with an
opening gap of the contacts that enables total disconnection in overvoltage
category III conditions.
Said disconnection devices must be provided in the mains power supply in
compliance with installation regulations.
The Ground cable must not be cut off by the switch.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for failure to comply with the safety
regulations.
FUMES DISCHARGE
EXTERNAL EXHAUST HOOD SUCTION
In this version the fumes and vapours are discharged outside
through the exhaust pipe.
To this end, the hood outlet fitting must be connected via a
pipe, to an external output.
The outlet pipe must have:
• a diameter not less than that of the hood fitting.
• a slight slope downwards (drop) in the horizontal sections to prevent conden-
