PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION
this appliance is heavy; the hood should only
be lifted and installed by two or more people.
The minimum distance between the cooking pan
support on top of the cooker and the bottom of
the hood must not be less than 50 cm for electric
cookers and 65 cm for gas or mixed cookers.
Before installation also check the minimum
distances stated in the manual of the cooker.
If the installation instructions for the cooker specify
a greater distance between cooker and hood, this
distance must be observed.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Make sure the power voltage specified on the
appliance rating plate is the same as the mains
voltage.
This information may be found on the inside of the
hood, under the grease filter.
Power cable replacement (type H05 VV-F 3 x 0.75
mm²) must be carried out by a qualified electrician.
Contact an authorized service centre.
If the hood is fitted with an electric plug, connect
the plug to a socket complying with current
regulations, located in an accessible place. If no
plug is fitted
(direct wiring to the mains), or if the socket is not
located in an accessible place, install a standardized
double pole power switch that will enable
complete
isolation from the mains in case of category III
overvoltage conditions, in accordance with wiring
rules.
