The distance between the supporting
surface for the cooking vessels on the hob
and the lower part of the hood must be at
least 65 cm. If the instructions for installation
for the hob specify a greater distance, this
has to be taken into account.
The air collected must not be conveyed
into a duct used to blow off smokes from
appliances fed with an energy other than
electricity (central heating systems,
thermosiphons, water-heaters, etc.).
Comply with the official instructions
provided by the competent authorities in
merit when installing the disposal duct. In
addition, exhaust air should not be
discharged into a wall cavity, unless the
cavity is designed for that purpose.
The room must be well aerated in case a
hood and some other heat equipment fed
with an energy other than electricity (gas,
oil, coal heaters, etc) operate at the same
time. In fact the intake hood, disposing of
air, could create a vacuum in the room. The
vacuum should not exceed 0,04mbar. This
prevents the gas exhausted by the heat
source from being intaken again. It is
therefore advisable to ensure the room
contains air taps able to ensure a steady
flow of fresh air.
ATTENTION: This appliance must be
grounded.
The following warning is valid in the United
Kingdom only: in case your cable is not
furnished with a plug, read the following
instructions; as the colours of the wires in
the mains lead of this appliance may not
correspond with the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug,
proceed as follows:
– the wire which is coloured green and
yellow must be connected to the terminal in
the plug which is marked with the letter E or
by the earth symbol [ ], or coloured
green or green and yellow;
– the wire which is coloured blue must be
connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter N or coloured black;
– the wire which is coloured brown must be
connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter L or coloured red.
When making the electrical connections,
check that the current socket has a ground
connection and that the voltage values
correspond to those indicated on the data
plate inside the appliance itself.
In case your appliance is not furnished with
a non separating flexible cable and has no
plug, or has not got any other device ensu-
ring omnipolar disconnection from the elec-
tricity main, with a contact opening distance
of at least 3 mm, such separating device
ensuring disconnection from the main must
be included in the fixed installation. If your
unit features a power lead and plug, position
this so the plug is accessible.
Always switch off the electricity supply
before carrying out any cleaning or
servicing operations on the appliance.
Avoid using materials which could cause
spurts of flame (flambées) near the
appliance.
When frying, take particular care to prevent
oil and grease from catching fire. Already
used oil is especially dangerous in this
respect. Do not use uncovered electric
grates.
To avoid possible risks of fire always comply
with the indicated instructions when
cleaning grease filters and when removing
grease deposits from the appliance.
Thorough servicing guarantees correct and
long-lasting operation.
Any fat deposits should be removed from
the appliance periodically depending on
amount of use (at least every 2 months).
Avoid using abrasive or corrosive products.
To clean painted appliances on the outside,
use a cloth dipped in lukewarm water and
neutral detergent. To clean steel, copper
or brass appliances on the outside, it is
always best to use specific products,
following the instructions on the products
themselves. To clean the inside of the
appliance, use a cloth (or brush) dipped in
denatured ethyl alcohol.
