-If the room where the hood is to be used contains a fuel
burning appliance such as a central heating boiler then
its flue must be of the sealed or balanced flue type. If
other types of flue or appliances are fitted ensure that
there is an adequate supply of air to the room.
-The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used
for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or
other fuels.
-Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be
conformed to.
-Do not flambé under the cooker hood.
-Never leave frying pans unattended during use as over-
heated fats and oils may catch fire.
-To ensure the best performance, we recommend
switching on the extractor 15 minutes before cooking
and leave it running 15 minutes after. This will ensure
that the air in the kitchen is being circulated before
cooking commences and the air is being cleaned after
cooking has finished.
-The performance of your extractor will vary depending
on a number of factors. These include type of extraction,
room volume, length of ducting, ventilation available and
the cleanliness of the filters.

INSTALLATION
Prepare for the installation:
If you have an outlet to the outside, your cooker hood can be
connected as per the below picture by means of an extraction
duct with an interior diameter of 150mm.
Before installation, turn the unit off and unplug it from
the outlet.
The cooker hood should be installed so that there is a space
of 650-760mm from the centre of the mesh grease filters
to the hob (435-545mm from the bottom of the hood to
the hob). It is the manufacturer of the hob who determines
the clearance required and the clearance quoted by the
hob manufacturer must be followed. In the absence of any

between the hob and the centre of the mesh grease filters
must be at least 760mm.
