Installation

Installation modes
The hood has been designed to be installed and used either as an “Exhaust mode”, or as a “Recirculation mode”.

Exhaust mode (see a symbol in installation booklet)
Cooking steam is sucked and channelled outside the house through a discharge duct (not supplied), fitted to the hood steam outlet. Ensure that the discharge duct is correctly fitted to the air outlet, a unit using n appropriate connection system.

Recirculation mode (see a symbol in the installation booklet) The air is filtered through one or more charcoal filters, and then sent to the room.

Important: Ensure appropriate air circulation around the hood.
Important: If the hood is supplied without charcoal filters and installed on recirculation mode, these must be fitted before the hood can be used. Filters are available in shops. The hood should be installed away from particularly dirty areas, windows, doors, and heat sources. The accessories for wall fixing are not included because walls made of different materials require different types of fixing accessories. Use fixing systems suitable for the walls of your home and the weight of the appliance. For more details, contact a specialized dealer. Keep this booklet for future consultation.
