(2) INSTALLATION
The range hood should be placed at a distance of 65~75cm above the
cooking plane for best effect. See pic 1.
Install the hook on a suitable place once the installation height is fixed,
and keep it in line. The fixed position of the inside chimney bracket is the
place of chimney. See pic 2.

Carbon filter-not supplied
Activated carbon filter can be used to trap odors. Normally the activated carbon

power to the unit.
2. Press the filter lock and remove the mesh filter.
3. Turn the carbon filter on both sides of the motor anti-clockwise. Replace
the carbon filters with the new carbon filters.
4. Place the mesh filter.
5. Connect the power supply to the wall socket.
NOTE:
Make sure the filter is securely locked. Otherwise, it would loosen and cause
danger.
When activated carbon filter attached, the suction power will be lowered.

(3) NOTICE OF INSTALLATION
The following rules must be strictly followed to obtain optimal air extraction:
• Keep flexible tube duct short and straight.
• Do not reduce the size or restrict the flexible tube duct.
• When using the flexible tube duct always install the pipe pulled taut to
minimize pressure loss.
• Failure to observe these basic instructions will reduce the performance and
increase noise level of the range hood.
• Any installation work must be carried out by a qualified electrician or
competent person.
•Do not connect the ducting system of the range hood to any existing ventilation
system which is being used for any other appliance, such as heating tube, gas
tube, air ducting tube.
•The angle of the bend of the flexible tube duct should not be less than 90º; you
must direct the pipe horizontally, or, alternatively, the pipe should go up from
the initial point and should be led to an outer wall.
•After the installation , make sure that the range hood is installed correctly to
avoid grease collection at one end.
•Ensure the flexible tube duct selected for installation complies with relevant
standards and is fire retardant.

(4) SAFETY WARNING
Do not try to use the range hood without the grease filters or if the filters are
excessively greasy!
Do not install above a gas hob with a high level grill.
Do not leave frying pans unattended during use because overheated fats or oil
smight catch fire.
Never leave naked flames under the range hood.
If the range hood is damaged, do not attempt to use.
Do not flambé under the range hood.
CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking
appliances.
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels
on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood is 65 cm. (When the range
hood is located above a gas appliance, this distance shall be at least 75 cm)
The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes
from appliances burning gas or other fuels. Range hoods and other cooking
fume extractors may adversely affect the safe operation of appliances burning
gas or other fuels (including those in other rooms) due to back flow of
combustion gases. These gases can potentially result in carbon monoxide
poisoning. After installation of a range hood or other cooking fume extractor,
the operation of open flued gas appliances should be tested by a competent
person to ensure that back flow of combustion gases does not occur.
Important! Always switch off the electricity supply at the mains during
installation.
The range hood must be installed in accordance with the installation instructions
and all measurements followed.
All installation work must be carried out by a competent person or qualified
electrician.
Please dispose the packing material carefully. Children are vulnerable to it.
Pay attention to the sharp edges inside the range hood especially during
installation and cleaning.
Make sure the ducting has no bends sharper than 90 degrees as this will reduce
the efficiency of the range hood.

Warning: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these
instructions may result in electrical hazards.
Warning: Before obtaining access to terminals, all supply circuits must be
disconnected.
Always put lids on pots and pans when cooking on a hob.
When in extraction mode, air in the room is being removed by the range hood.
Please make sure that proper ventilation measures are being observed. The
range hood removes odours from room but not steam.
This range hood is for domestic use only.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and
persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of
experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards
involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user
maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
Caution: The appliance and its accessible parts can become hot during operation.
Be careful to avoid touching the heating elements. Children younger than 8
years old should stay away unless they are under permanent supervision.
There shall be adequate ventilation of the room when the range hood is used at
the same time as appliances burning gas or other fuels.
There is a fire risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the
instructions.
Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.
Clean your appliance periodically by following the method given in the chapter
MAINTENANCE.
For safety reason, please use only the same size of fixing or mounting screw
which are recommended in this operating/installation manual.
Regarding the details about the method and frequency of cleaning, please refer
to maintenance and cleaning section in the operating/installation manual.
Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without
supervision.

When the range hood and appliances supplied with energy other than electricity
are simultaneously in operation, the negative pressure in the room must not
exceed 4 Pa (4 x 10-5 bar).
Warning: Danger of fire: do not store items on the cooking surfaces.
