[. . . ] It is dangerous to modify or attempt to modify the characteristics of this system. In the event of malfunctions or if repairs are required to the appliance, do not attempt to solve the problems directly. For all repair and other work on the appliance, contact an authorised service/spare parts centre. Always check that all the electrical parts (lights, exhaust device), are off when the appliance is not being used. [. . . ] Avoid using angled pipes, make sure that the pipes are at least of the minimum length. Comply with the current regulations on air discharge into the atmosphere. That uses gas or other fuels is being used at the same time, make sure the room where the fumes are extracted is well ventilated, in compliance with the current regulations. d ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (Section reserved for qualified installers) WARNING!Before doing any work inside the range hood, disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply. Check that the wires inside the range hood are not disconnected or cut; if this is the case, contact your nearest service centre. 12 The connections must be performed in compliance with the legal standards in force. Check that the relief valve and the electrical system are able to support the load of the appliance (see the technical specifications in point B). Some types of appliance are supplied with a cable without plug; in this case, “standardised” plugs must be used, keeping in mind that: - the yellow-green wire must be used for the earth, - the blue wire must be used for the neutral, - the brown wire must be used for the phase; the cable must not come into contact with hot parts (over 70 °C). - fit a plug that is suitable for the load to the power cable, and connect it to a suitable power outlet. For appliances that come supplied with cable and plug please ensure they are plugged into a circuit suitable for this appliance. English The manufacturer declines all liability if the safety standards are not observed. E RANGE HOOD WITH OUTSIDE DISCHARGE (exhaust) 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). F RECIRCULATING RANGE HOOD (with filter) 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 air is purified by passing a number of times through the filters and being recirculated into the kitchen. The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned, and should be replaced on average every 3-4 months (according to use). - Drill a hole, insert 2x8 mm wall anchors and fix the bar with the screw provided. The upper screw (B) set the distance from the wall, the lower (C) the vertical slide. [. . . ]
