[. . . ] Read the entire instruction booklet before performing any operations on the range hood. The range hood must only be used for the exhaust of cooking fumes in home kitchens. The manufacturer disclaims all liability for any other use of the appliance. The maximum weight of any object placed above the hood, or hung to it (if possible) must not exceed 1, 5 kilos. [. . . ] The manufacturer declines all liability if the safety standards are not observed. In this version, the fumes and steam from the kitchen are conveyed outside through an exhaust duct. The exhaust conveyor that protrudes from the upper part of the range hood must be connected to a duct that carries the fumes and steam outside. In this version, the charcoal filters, if fitted, should be removed; to do this, see the instructions in point F. There must be adequate ventilation of the room when the range hood is used at the same time as appliances burning gas or other fuels, according to the standard. Deviation for Germany: When the range hood and appliances supplied with energy other than electricity are simultaneously in operation, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 4 Pa (4x10 E-5 bar). In this version, the air passes through charcoal filters for purification, and is then recirculated back into the kitchen. Check that the charcoal filters are fitted to the motor, and if not, install them as described in the instructions in point H. if the hood is of filtering type , remove the non-return valve fitted at the motor's outlet. For maximum efficiency, the third speed should be used when there are strong odours or a lot of steam, the second speed in normal conditions, and the first speed for keeping the air clean with minimum energy consumption. The range hood should be switched on when starting to cook, and left on until the odours disappear. The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned, and should be replaced on average every 3-4 months (according to use). The ouside of the range hhod should be cleaned using a damp cloth and neutral liquid detergent or denatured alcohol. In case of fingerprint-less finish (fasteel) clean only with water and neutral soap using clean with a soft cloth, rinse and wipe dry thoroughly. Do not use products that contain abrasive substances, rough cloths or cloths specifically designed for cleaning steel. Using abrasive substances or rough cloths will inevitably damage the finish of steel. the steel surface will be irrevocably damaged if the instructions above are not complied with. Keep these instructions together with the instructions for use of your hood. The manufacturer accepts no liability for any damage caused by non-compliance with the instructions above. The electrical parts or parts of the motor assembly inside the range hood must not be cleaned using liquids or solvents. All the above operations must be performed after having disconnected the appliance from the mains power supply. The electrical system features an earth connection in compliance with international safety standards; furthermore, it is compliant with the European standard for electromagnetic compatibility. [. . . ] 3) Screw in the two top screws (V2) without tightening them completely. 4) Lift the hood to the desired height, then tighten the top and bottom screws (V2). 5) If the hood is of extraction type identify the correct length of the exhaust duct and connect the hood: when possible, the top (B) can be removed temporarily by undoing the screws (V4). 6) Connect the electric system only after having disconnected the hood from the power supply.
