INSTALLATION OF THE FLAPS
The 2 air flaps should now be installed on the top of the unit, as access
is easier before the unit is wall mounted. The flaps should be carefully
installed, bending them slightly so the lugs at each end locate into the
holes in the outlet vent. When the unit is in operation the flaps pivot
upwards to allow airflow.
Please note: Ensure the small lugs at each end of each flap locate into
the holes on the housing and not the grooves above them.
After installing the flaps, ensure that they are able to pivot freely within
the outlet, before fixing the air outlet to the top of the unit using 2 x ST4*8
Screws.

7
OPTIONS FOR VENTILATION
This hood can be set up for either external venting or recirculation of the
air. The type of setup should be decided before commencing
installation.
EXTERNAL VENTING
If you have an outlet leading outside, your
cooker hood can be connected as shown in the
diagram using a flexible exhaust pipe.
Alternatively, any suitable extraction duct
(enamel, aluminium, flexible pipe or
inflammable material with an interior diameter
of 120/150mm) can be used.
An adaptor is also supplied to enable you to
connect your hood to pre-existing 120mm
diameter ducting.
If this is the chosen installation method, consideration to the route of the
vent pipe should be made prior to installation.
NOTE: the performance of the hood may be affected if the diameter of
the pipe is reduced, or if the airflow is restricted.
RECIRCULATION
This cooker hood also supports the
recirculation of air once it has passed through
the filters. The filtered air is then expelled
through the vent holes in the side of the
chimney.
When setting the unit up in this configuration,
carbon filters should also be used to remove
odors from the air. Details of fitting the filters
can be found in the Carbon filter section.
When setting up for recirculation the installation instructions should be
followed, but the vent pipe should not be attached, allowing the air to be
expelled through the vents on the side of the chimney.

8
INSTALLATION
• Unpack the hood and check that all functions are working. Ensure that
the voltage (V) and the frequency (Hz) indicated on the serial plate
match the voltage and frequency at the installation site.
• Check that the area behind the installation surface is clear of any
electrical cables or pipes, etc to avoid damage when drilling.
• The surfaces of the hood can be very easily damaged during installation.
Take care with tools to protect the surfaces during installation.
• Protect the hob surface with cardboard, or similar, to prevent damage
occurring whilst the hood is being installed above.
• The manufacturer shall not be liable for any failure to observe all
safety regulations in force for the correct and normal operation of
electrical products.
• Ensure the wall is level and the installation plates are horizontal to
prevent grease from accumulating within the hood.
• Ensure the power has been turned off at the mains before starting
installation.
• Connection to the mains supply must be in an accessible location.
• You may need the following tools to complete this installation:
• Drill appropriate for your wall
• Phillips Screwdriver
• Tape Measure
• Electrical wiring must be done by a qualified professional in accordance
with all applicable codes and standards, including fire rated construction.
IMPORTANT
• Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhaustion of gases
through the flue (chimney) for fuel burning equipment to prevent back
drafting. Ductless fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
• When assessing the air pressure, the entire ventilation system in the
house/apartment must be taken into account.
• All legal regulations must be observed for the conveyance of exhaust air.
If the extractor hood is used in recirculating mode with the optional
carbon filter, there are no operating restrictions.

1. Before installation, ensure
you have not connected
the appliance to the
mains supply.
2. The cooker hood should
be placed at a distance of
65~75cm above the
cooking plane for best
effect.
3. After confirming the
height of the cooker
hood measure the
position of the
holes inside and
outside of the
chimney bracket for
hanging the hood.
4. Drill 4 holes, 2 for
the inner chimney
bracket and 2 for
hanging the hood, and keep the hood level.
The inner chimney bracket should be
secured at the highest point.
5. Screw two 4 x 30mm screws on the wall with wall plugs to fix the
hood, then use two 4mm x 40mm screws to fix the inner chimney
bracket.

10
6. Place the glass canopy on to the
hood, aligning the screw holes.
Place the anti-vibration rings into
the 4 holes before securing the
glass canopy into place by
tightening the 4 bolts (M4*20)
through the mounting rings into
the hood.
7. Then fix the outlet on the hood
and attach the adaptor.
8. Hang the hood on the wall in the desired
final position.
9. Once the hood is positioned
correctly, fix the unit to the wall
using 2 x ST4*30 screws and wall
plugs through the fixing holes.
The fixing holes are located inside
the unit behind the grease filters.
10. Place the two chimneys together
onto the cooker hood body. Adjust
the height of the inner chimney
until a suitable height. Fix the inner
chimney to the chimney bracket
using the supplied screws
(ST4*8).

11
EXHAUST INSTALLATION
The following rules must be strictly followed to obtain optimal air
extraction:
• Keep the expansion pipe short and straight.
• Do not reduce the size or restrict expansion pipe.
• When using an expansion pipe always install the pipe pulled
taut to minimize pressure loss.
• Failure to observe these basic instructions will reduce the
performance and increase noise levels of the cooker hood.
• Any installation work must be carried out by a qualified
electrician or competent person.
• Do not connect the ducting system of the hood to any existing
ventilation system which is being used for any other appliance,
such as a warmer tube, gas tube or hot wind tube.
• The angle of the bend of the expansion pipe should be no less
than 120º; you must direct the pipe horizontally, or,
alternatively, the pipe should
go up from the initial point
and be led to an outer wall.
• After the installation, make
sure that the cooker hood is
level to avoid grease
collection at one end.
NOTE: Ensure the expansion pipe selected for installation
complies with relevant standards and is fire retardant.
