DESCRIPTION
--------------------------------------------------------
This apparatus includes a hood, a hanging
telescopic structure and a telescopic flue that
must be set on top of the hood to cover the
air evacuation pipe.
This apparatus can be a filtering version one,
an ducting version one or a version with an
external motor.
In the Filtering version the air and the kitchen
fumes that are conveyed by the apparatus
are depurated by the charcoal filters and put
back into the room through the small grilles of
the ventilation tube (Fig. 1). ATTENTION: If
you use your apparatus as a filtering version
one, a charcoal filter must be used.
In the Ducting version (Fig. 2), cooking
vapours and odours are conveyed straight
outside by a disposal duct which passes
through the ceiling.
In the version with an external motor, the
apparatus must be connected to an remote
blower, that will work separately, using the
apparatus as a basis connecting the air to be
exhausted (Fig. 3). IMPORTANT: use only
blowers included in the original catalogue.
ATTENTION: The hoods that have a glass
decoration are part of a range of first class
articles that are handicraftly made; the
glass pieces might be slightly out of shape,
which is due to the special working phases
they must undergo.
INSTALLATION
--------------------------------------------------------
ATTENTION: Two persons are required for
proper installation; the unit should be
installed by a qualified operator.
This hood is extremely heavy. Before
installation, make sure that the structure
of your kitchen ceiling is capable of
supporting it.
Remove the anti-grease filter as described
below (point 2, Operation) before proceeding
with the assembly instructions. This will make
the appliance easier to handle.
Also follow carefully each step of the
assembly instructions, and once
installation has been completed, make
sure that the hood is firmly secured in
place.
Be very careful not to hurt roughly the
glass part with objects made out of china,
metal, glass or any other heavy object
because it might break.
To get the best results when the ducting
version and the version with external motor
are to be set, use an air evacuation pipe
that has a minimum indispensable length, the
least number of bends (max angle of a bend:
90°), that is made out of a material approved
by the laws (according to the State), that has
its inside as smooth as possible. It is moreover
advised to avoid important changes of the
section of the tube (diameter: 150mm).
For assembling it is essential to:
– assemble the plate including the electrical
components (Fig. 18A) and the air
evacuation pipe (Fig. 18B) by means of
the supplied screws.
– prepare the connection to the mains within
the telescopic flue.
– prepare the hole for evacuating the air if
your apparatus is to be installed as an
ducting version one or as a version with
external motor.
ASSEMBLING
By means of the boring template, make all the
holes that are on it into the ceiling paying an
extremely careful attention to the indications
concerning the final position of the apparatus.
Mind that one of the axes of the boring template
must be in correspondence with the axis of
the controls of the hood.
For the filtering versions, you must, before
installing the telescopic structure, fix the baffle
by means of screws A (Fig. 10).
By means of the supplied screws and the
screw anchors, fix the telescopic structure
onto the ceiling (Fig. 4).
Adjust the height of the telescopic structure
according to your specific requirements,
reminding that the height of the hood is : for
the ducting version 850-1030 mm (Fig. 5A),
for the filtering version 920-1150 mm (Fig.
5F), and that the distance between the
apparatus and the hob must be at least 650
mm (Fig. 5). Once you have worked out the
height, fix the measures of the telescopic
structure by means of the 4 adjusting screws
(Fig. 6).
