Wall mounting.
Remove the aluminium grease filters (perforated plates) by gently pulling down on the
handles so that the interior of the cooker hood and the keyhole slots are exposed.
The hood must be mounted directly over the cooking area. The minimum distance
between the cooking surface and the underside of the hood must be 650 mm. for
electric cookers and 750 mm. for gas burners.
Get two people to help you hold the body of the hood in position against the wall and
using a pencil, mark the two keyhole slots and the two retaining hole positions, on the
wall.
Using a masonry bit, drill a hole at the top of each marked slot and at the centre of the
retaining hole marks. Insert a rawl plug into each hole.
Using pan-head screws with a head diameter slightly smaller than the bottom opening
of the keyhole slot, insert the screws part way into the marked keyhole positions.
Leave about 5 mm of the screws proud of the wall.

pipe. Decide on which
option best suits your needs and proceed with the installation accordingly
Option 1—Re- circulated air
Fit the metal Y-piece on to the main body using the self tapping screws supplied
Fit the larger of the two chimney pieces to the main body using the two self tapping
screws supplied.
Lift and hang the hood and chimney assembly onto the two keyhole mounting screws.
Fit and tighten two suitable retainer screws ensuring all the while that the hood is
level.
Using the top chimney fixing bracket as a template, mark the hole positions. Drill and
attach the fixing bracket to the wall at the marked positions. Reposition the top
chimney piece so that the side holes correspond with the holes in the fixing bracket
and secure with two self tapping screws.

Option 2 - Outside venting
Fit the plastic spigot to the main body using the self tapping screws supplied
Connect a 125 mm. diameter flexible duct straight onto the spigot flange.
Ensure that the duct vents to the outside air.
To prevent the risk of fire, do not lead the duct into an existing chimney or flue as the
duct could carry airborne combustible grease and fats

Operation
Switch on the chimney hood prior to cooking.
Select the fan speed you would require depending on the type of cooking being done.
3 for high extraction level, 2 for medium and 1 for low.
If required, you can illuminate the cooking area by switching the hood lights on.
Leave the hood running for a short period after the cooking has been completed to
clear any smoke and odours.
CAUTION There should be adequate ventilation of the room when the chimney hood
is used at the same time as appliances using gas or other fuels.
CAUTION Do not flambé under the chimney hood
Maintenance
CLEANING
Disconnect the power before attempting any maintenance or cleaning.
Remove the aluminium grease filters by gently pulling down on their handles.
Wash the aluminium grease filters every month in a solution of warm water and
dishwashing liquid. This will remove accumulated grease and fats and maintain
extraction performance.
Allow the filters to dry before re-fitting them.
When washing is no longer effective, the aluminium filters should be replaced.
Located on the fan housing is a round charcoal packed filter. This filter is designed to
absorb and neutralise cooking odours.
The life of the charcoal filter is approximately 2 years and when odour absorption is no
longer effective it should be replaced.
Remove the charcoal filter by gently turning it in an anti-clockwise direction.
CAUTION
If cleanin
g
is not carried out in accordance with the instructions, the accumulated
grease could, over time, become a fire risk.
REPLACING A FAULTY LIGHT
Disconnect the power
Working from below the hood, grip the lamp retaining spring clip ends between thumb
and forefinger.
Squeeze the ends together and withdraw the clip
This allows the lamp socket to drop from the lamp housing.
Hold the lamp socket firmly and turn the lamp anti-clockwise to disengage it from the
socket.
Replace the lamp with a similar lamp 240V 50 W and re-assemble in reverse order.
