Should you have any problem, it is advisable to seek the
advice and consent of the competent area chimney-sweeper
or the local building authorities.
Since in rooms without non-electric appliances the rule is
the following: “Air inlet must be as large as the air outlet,
the good working of the cooker hood could be reduced if
the air outlet is bigger than 500-600 cm
2
.
The functionning of the cooker hood in the recirculation
mode, in the same conditions, does not present any danger.
The following instructions should be observed to avoid
any risk in the use of the cooker hood in the evacuation
mode:
- short and straight ducting
- as few bends as possible
- no 90
° bends, but flat angles
- as large as possible duct diameters (basically 120mm Ø
minimum for two motors cooker hoods).
Should these instructions not be observed, a sensible loss
of performance can take place.
The following distances between the upper edge of the
cooktop and the lower edge of the cooker hood are to be
observed:
electric cooktops 465mm
gas cooker hoods 650mm

Safety warnings
The installation of a socket immediately above the cooker hood
or the cabinet has two advantages:
1. The socket is out of sight
2. If necessary, the cooker hood can be disconnected by
removing the plug.
Should it be necessary to connect the hood permanently, this
should be carried out only by a qualified electrician or a
competent person. Connect the hood to the mains supply via
a double pole switch which has 3mm minimum clearance
between the contacts.
Suitable double pole switch breakers are e.g. switches,
fuses (screw-in fuses must be taken out from their holder),
safety switches and protection switches having more than
3mm clearance between the contacts.
Electric connection
230 V through cable with plug
240 V through cable (England)
The permanent electrical connection should be carried out only
by a qualified electrician or a competent person.
CE This appliance complies with the requirements of the fol-
lowing CEE directives:
72/23/EWG of 19.02.1973, low tension directive (including
modification directive 93/68/EWG).
89/336/EWG of 03.05.1989 (including modification directive
92/31/EWG - EMV directive).
When used in the evacuation mode the cooker hood must
not be connected to a central heating flue, radiator or a
water heater.
If the room where the cooker hood is to be used contains
other non-electric appliances (such as gas appliances) do
not connect the appliance to the room ventilation ducting.
If the cooker hood is connected to chimneys no longer in
use, it is advisable to seek the consent to the competent
chimney-sweeper.
If the cooker hood is installed in the evacuation mode, the
requirements of the concerned authorities have to be
observed.
An adequate air inlet having the same size as the air outlet
is to be ensured.
If the room where the cooker hood is to be used contains
other non-electric appliances (such as gas or coke ap-
pliances), their use is subject to some restrictions.
When the cooker hood and appliances supplied with energy
other than electricity are simultaneously in operation, the
negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0,04 mbar
in order to avoid a return of the gas emissions.
The air inlet must have a 500-600 cm
2
surface.
