AFTER-SALES SERVICE
Before calling Technical Assistance
1. Check to see if you can fix the problem yourself (see �Troubleshooting Guide�). 2. Switch the hood off for a few minutes then switch it back on and see if the problem has gone. 3. If the problem persists, call Technical Assistance. Specify: � the nature of the problem, � the model, � your full address, � your telephone number and area code. � The service code (number below the word SERVICE on the rating plate inside the hood behind the grease filter).

INSTALLATION
When installing the hood, the minimum distances from the cooktop must be respected, and the numerical sequence and additional instructions must be followed exactly as indicated on the Installation sheet. If the installation instructions for a gas cooker specify a greater distance, then this distance must be observed. The exhaust pipe and clamps are not supplied and must be bought separately.

External Exhaust Mode (A - see also installation sheet)
Cooking fumes and vapours are conveyed outside through a duct connected to the hood by means of a collar. The outlet duct diameter must be the same as that of the collar. If a flue-damper is to be installed, check that it can open and close freely when installation of the exhaust duct is complete. The hood can be supplied with one (upper) or two (upper and rear) exhaust outlet holes.

The hood is usually set up for using the upper exhaust outlet.

1. The collar must be seated in the upper exhaust outlet. Use the rear exhaust outlet (where present). 1. Where fitted, remove the cover closing off the rear outlet and collar. 2. Some models are fitted with a plastic deflector that closes off the rear outlet. If fitted, remove it. 3. Fit the collar in the rear outlet. 4. Put the cover (if fitted) in the upper outlet.

Warning! If the hood has a carbon filter, this should be removed. Filter Hood (F - see also installation sheet)

Check that the switch inside the hood (if fitted) is on position �A� Extractor; if not, set it to this position.

Air is filtered through a carbon filter and returned to the room. The filtered air is released towards the kitchen ceiling.

Warning! If the hood does not have a carbon filter, order one and fit it before use.
Check that the switch inside the hood (if fitted) is on position �F� Filter; if not, set it to this position. If the plug is provided, close off the upper exhaust hole.

Electrical connections
Before connecting the hood, make sure the voltage indicated on the rating plate corresponds to the voltage in your home. The plate is located inside the hood behind the grille. If the hood is fitted with a standard plug, insert it into a matching standard socket in an easily accessible location. If the hood is not fitted with a plug, fit one that conforms to applicable standards or use a double-pole switch that conforms to applicable standards with a minimum contact separation of 3mm, in an easily accessible location. The Manufacturer shall not be liable for any damage or problem arising from the failure to comply with the above-mentioned instructions.
