INSTALLING THE EXTRACTOR
Before carrying out the appliance installation, please check that all components are not damaged,
in such a case contact your retailer and do not carry out any installation operation.
› Before the installation of the Downdraft, please remove the safety piece you can see in the
picture (Fig. 1). Furthermore, please read carefully all of the following
installation instructions.
› Use an air exhausting pipe whose maximum length
does not exceed 5 metres.
› Limit the number of elbows in the piping, since each
elbow reduces the air capacity of 1 linear metre. (eg.
if you use no. 2 x 90° elbows, the length of piping
should not exceed 3 metres).
› Avoid abrupt direction changes.
› Use a 150mm constant diametre rigid ducting pipe for
the whole length.
› Use piping approved by standards in force.
The manufacturer shall not be deemed responsible for air capacity or noise problems caused by
failure to comply with the above instructions and no warranty on the product shall be provided.
› Before making the hole, check that there are no
structural or other parts inside the cabinet, where
the appliance is to be placed, which could hinder a
proper installation. Check that the dimensions of the
Downdraft and the ones of the cook top are compatible
with the cabinet so that the installation can be carried
out properly.
› Make a rectangular opening, 842 x 100mm in size, in
the back of the cook top for the 90cm model, 1142 x
100mm for the 1200cm model and 542 x 100mm for
the 60cm model.
› Put the Downdraft in the opening, inserting it from above as shown in (Fig. 2).

› Fix the downdraft inside the cabinet, using the
special fixing brackets supplied with the product
(Fig. 3). Insert the brackets in the lower side
of the downdraft (Fig. 3), in such a way that
there is a 2mm distance between the lower side
of bracket and the bottom of the cabinet (Fig. 3).
This distance will allow the traction to be positioned
downwards of the product, at the moment of fixing,
in order to have the stainless steel trim perfectly
adhering with the work surface. Before inserting
the screws, please make sure that the appliance is
perfectly perpendicular with the work surface.
› Once the installation is complete and after connecting the appliance to the mains power, lift
up the downdraft and remove the door block (Fig. 4); then open the door (Fig. 5) and fit the
filters in place (Fig. 6).
In the version of the Downdraft equipped with internal motor, install the power unit
orienting the air outlet to the desired position, either downwards or upwards (Fig. 7).
The motor can be installed either on the front or rear side of the downdraft. After installing
the motor, connect the air ducts.
