GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
PREPARATION
A: GENERAL
Carefully unpack the hood but do not remove any
protective film until after installation to avoid
accidental damage or scratching. Place filters
somewhere safe for the same reason.
Check for damage, and lay out the hood pieces and
parts.
Range hoods do not come with wall or ceiling screws,
as the type of structure determines the type of screws.
Check that you have the right tools. In addition to
marking and measuring tools, a hammer, screwdrivers,
pliers and scissors, you may need sheet metal sheers,
and wire strippers. Safety glasses are recommended.
B: ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This range hood must be grounded. If the dwelling
wiring is not 2-wire with a ground wire, a ground must
be provided by the installer.
Install a 5.08 X 10.16 cm (2” X 4”) wall outlet box and
3-blade 125 Volts, 15 amp grounded receptacle.
Use wire nuts to connect incoming ground, neutral and
hot.
Push wires into the junction box and replace cover. Be
sure wires are not pinched.

WALL MOUNTED RANGE HOOD INSTALLATION
Wall Mounted range hoods can be ducted outside (exhaust
mode) or vented internally (recirculation mode)
DUCTED EXHAUST MODE INSTALLATION (Pic 7a &7b)
In exhaust mode hood models, the kitchen vapors are purified by
the metal anti-grease filters and carried outside through a ducting
system.
To begin, choose where the ductwork should run between the hood
and the outside of your home. The straighter and shorter the duct
run, the more efficient the performance.
RECIRCULATING MODE INSTALLATION (Pic 8)
Recirculation kits are available for the Rapido II models.
The kitchen vapors are purified by the metal anti-grease filters and
an activated carbon filter, then conveyed back into the kitchen.
In order to transform your cooker hood from the exhaust version to
the recirculation version, you need to purchase a recirculation kit
separately and then carry out the installation instructions enclosed
with the kit.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY METAL
DUCTWORK.
Note: Range hoods pictured in this manual are generic to
represent all models.

WALL MOUNTED STAINLESS STEEL RANGE HOOD
INSTALLATION
Make the holes that correspond with the centre of the cooktop, so that the
lower part of the hood, which is to be assembled afterwards, is arranged at
least 61 cm (24”) from the stove top for electric models and at least 76 cm
(30”) for gas models. (See Pic 9)
Installing range hood hook: Drill 3 holes in a suitable place according to
size of hook, use screws to fix the hook on the wall.
Installing chimney bracket: drill 2 holes according to size of inside chimney
bracket in a suitable position, the position of bracket should be flush with the
top of the outside chimney. (See Pic 10)
Fix the damper on the top vent of hood with 4 screws (See Pic 4), then
install the ducting pipes onto the damper. (See Pic 11) - If the ventilation
system is equipped with an external air duct with a different diameter, apply
a reduction fitting. However for maximum performance and safety 6” Ø
ducting is recommended.
Use 2 screws to fix two chimneys together with the outside chimney bracket,
make sure inside chimney is moving freely. (See Pic 12)
Install the chimneys on the hood. (See Pic 13)
Fix the chimney and hood together with two screws. (See Pic 14) –This step
is just for the models which have holes on bottom of outside chimney.
Hang the hood on the range hood hook. (See Pic 15)
Pull out the inside chimney and adjust height according to the position of
inside chimney bracket on the wall, then fix the inside chimney on the
bracket with two screws. (See Pic 16)
