Mounting 

Before beginning installation: 

• 

Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the 
chosen installation area. 

• 

Remove the charcoal (*) filter/s if supplied (see also relative 
paragraph). This/these is/are to be mounted only if you want 
lo use the hood in the filtering version. 

• 

Check (for transport reasons) that there is no other supplied 
material inside the hood (e.g. packets with screws (*), 
guarantees (*), etc.), eventually removing them and keeping 
them. 

  
  
  
In the case of the presence of panels and/or walls and/or lateral 
wall units check that there is sufficient space to install the hood and 
that access to the command panel is easy. 

Operation 

The hood has been designed in such a way as to prevent the 
formation of condensation on its lower surfaces when it is placed 
on top of an induction hob. 
Unlike gas or electric hobs, induction hobs only heat the food 
containers and not the surrounding air, so the surfaces of the hood 
are cold.  
When the hot cooking gases rise, they encounter the cold surfaces 
of the hood, which then condense and release the moisture 
present in the air that rapidly turns into water droplets. These then 
fall onto the hob itself and onto the food, contaminating it with fat 
and impurities. 
To prevent this from occurring, all the lower surfaces of the hood 
are heated by a system of internal resistances that are invisible. 
This means that the heating of the lower surfaces of the hood, 
even without switching on the hob below, is perfectly normal and is 
not a sign of a product malfunction. 
The internal grease filter is not specifically heated to condense a 
large part of the moisture present in the air. Some drops will, 
therefore, form on this surface that will be collected in a special 
tray. 
 

Tips and requirements for optimal use of the NO DRIP 
SYSTEM 

•  The hood should be switched on a few minutes before 

cooking to allow the lower surfaces to warm up and should be 
kept on until the odours disappear. 

• 

The grease filters should not be removed once cooking has 
terminated to allow time for the collected condensation in the 
grease filter to settle in the tray. 

• 

The rate of condensation collection increases with increasing 
suction speed (power). 

•  The NO DRIP SYSTEM offers the best performance in an 

environment with a temperature between 18°C and 25°C. 

• 

Always open the steam collector (panel) to its full range of 
motion.

Long press to switch ambient light on or 
off (only on some models).

"Anti-condensation" ON/OFF button:

used to prevent condensation from 
forming on the surface of the hood. 
Enable when required. 

"Automatic anti-condensation":

enabled by the hood each time it is 
switched on.

Automatic ON/OFF:

 with the hood off, 

press the button for 5 seconds until the 
steady LED is displayed for 3 seconds 
(and a beep if available) to ENABLE. 
With the hood off, press the button for 5 
seconds until the LED FLASHES for 3 
seconds (and a beep if available) to 
DISABLE. 

Note: Anti-condensation is only 
enabled only with the motor on.

Caution! Even if anti-condensation is
