DESCRIPTION
The unit can be found in filtering hoods or in exhaust hoods. In the Filtering hoods (Fig. 1) the air and steam
taken up by the unit are purified with charcoal filters and returned to the environment through the aeration grids on
the side of the flue. WARNING: When using filtering hoods, both charcoal filters and an air deflector (A) must be
used. Located in the lower part of the flue, this deflector recycles the air to the environment. The charcoal filters are
not supplied. In the Exhaust hoods (Fig .2) an exhaust duct conveys the steam and cooking odors directly outside
through the wall/ceiling. Therefore they do not require charcoal filters.
INSTALLATION
To facilitate installation, before starting remove the grease filters: press inward on the clamp at the handle and
pull the filter downward (Fig. 3).
Mount the plate of the electrical system (depending on the model) fixing it with 2 screws and 2 metal washers
(Fig. 4).
Wall fitting (Fig. 5): making use of the appropriate drilling jig, apply the supplied blocks into the wall, and
remember the distance between the hood and the cooktop must be at least 65 cm. Insert two of the supplied screws
so that the apparatus can be hooked onto these ones by means of the holes provided on the appliance (use
the holes A; if the hood have the holes A and C, use only the holes C). Once the apparatus is hooked, fix it
definitively to the wall using the two other screws and the holes made at its bottom (B). To avoid damage make
exclusive use of the holes already prepared on the hood.
Securing the telescopic flue: Basic installation requirements: – Set the electrical power supply within the space
covered by the decorative flue. – If your unit is installed in an Exhaust hood, prepare the air exhaust hole.
Place bracket (W) 50 mm from the ceiling and position this on the vertical of your hood, with the aid of the notches
on the centre of the bracket (Fig. 6); using a pen, mark the 2 holes on the wall and then make the holes and
fit the screw anchors provided and proceed to secure the bracket using the 2 screws (provided).
Exhaust hoods: connect the disposal duct to the air evacuation pipe of the hood; use a flexible pipe and lock it to
the air evacuation pipe of the hood with a metal hose clamp (pipe and clamp are not provided). Make all power
connections to the hood by means of the power cable. Take 2 assembled flues and place these on the upper surface
of the hood. Raise the upper flue as far as the ceiling and secure it to the bracket using the 2 screws (Fig.7).
Filtering hood: make all power connections to the hood using the power cable. Fasten the air baffle to the lower
flue as shown in Figure 8, using the 2 screws. Take 2 assembled flues and place these on the upper surface
of the hood. Raise the upper flue as far as the ceiling and secure it to the bracket using the 2 screws (Fig.7).
Also remember that charcoal filters must be used in the case of the filtering version; check to see whether such
filters are already fitted; if necessary, proceed to fit as follows, depending on the model type purchased:
- if the hood features round charcoal filters (Fig. 9), fit the charcoal filter by turning anti-clockwise.
- if the hood features a panel type charcoal filter (Fig. 10), remove the two metal filter retainers (M) and position
the charcoal filter inside the grease filter; fit the two filter retainers back on again to secure the charcoal filter.
OPERATION
Depending on the model, the unit is equipped with the following controls:
Controls shown in Fig. 11: Button A: light switch. Button B: first speed motor ON/OFF switch. Button C: second
speed switch. Button D: third speed switch. E: motor on light. THE MOTOR FUNCTION WARNING LIGHT (E) IS
NOT PRESENT IN SOME MODELS.
Controls shown in Fig. 12: Button A: Light switch; position 0: light off; position 1: light on. Button B: Motor
switch; position 0: motor off; position 1-2-3: motor on at speed I, II and III. C: Motor pilot lamp.
Controls shown in Fig. 13: Button A: turns the LIGHTS off. Button B: turns the LIGHTS on. Button C: decreases
speed down to minimum speed. If pressed for 2" the motor is turned off. Button D: activates the motor (calling
the last speed used) and increases the speed until reaching maximum. Button E: FILTER ALARM/TIMER RESET:
when pressing the key during display of the filter alarm (motor off) it resets the hour counter. When pressing the
key when the motor is running, the TIMER is activated and the hood will automatically be switched off after 5
minutes.
L1) The 4 green LEDs indicate the running speed.
L2) When the LED is red (motor off) it indicates the FILTER ALARM. When the LED is green (flashing) it indicates that
the TIMER has been activated with the key E.
FILTER ALARM: After 30h of operation, the LED L2 turns RED. It indicates that the grease filters need to be cleaned.
After 120h of operation, the LED L2 turns RED and flashes; It indicates that the grease filters need to be cleaned and
the charcoal filters replaced. After cleaning the grease filters (and/or replacing the charcoal filters), restart the hour counter
(RESET) by pressing the key E during display of the filter alarm.
Controls shown in Fig. 14: Button A: turns the lights on/off; every 30 hours of operation the corresponding pilot
lamp (S) comes on to indicate that the grease filters must be cleaned; every 120 hours of operation the
corresponding pilot lamp (S) flashes to indicate that the grease filters must be cleaned and the charcoal filter
replaced. To restart the hour counter (RESET), hold the button A pressed down for about 1” (while the pilot lamp
