• Actual product dimensions may vary by ± 1/16” (2mm).
• Please read the entire instructions before installing the range hood.
Rangehood Width
• The range hood width is recommended to be no less than the width of the cooktop.
• A wider range hood can be used to increase the capture area if space is not restricted.
• The range hood should ideally be centered above the cooktop for proper performance.
Determine Installation Location
• To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
• Do not use flexible ducting.
This range hood can be installed using a wall mounting system or be suspended under cabinetry. Ducting can be
configured for both vertical and horizontal discharge. The ducting can terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent
through the wall a 90° elbow is needed.

Height of the Rangehood
The installation height ranges from a minimum height of 30” (762mm) to a maximum recommended height of 42”
(1067mm). Consult the cooktop installation and user guide for details of the required installation height of the range
hood.
This range hood must be installed no lower than the minimum height indicated in the table below. Minimum installation
height may be greater if required by the cooktop manufacturer. Installation at the minimum height will improve the
efficiency of capturing cooking odors, grease and smoke. Installation at the maximum recommended height improves
user ergonomics by offering increased head room.
• Always switch your range hood on when you are cooking.
• Using a powerful gas cooktop or multiple gas burners operating at the same time can cause the
range hood surfaces to become hot, this effect can be reduced by:
◦ Using the maximum speed setting to enable hot air to be extracted quickly.
◦ Installing the range hood at the maximum recommended height. Consult the cooktop
installation and user guide for details on the installation height of the range hood.

A. Top of cooking surface to base of the range hood Minimum 30” (762mm)
Maximum recommended 42” (1067mm)
Calculating the Installation Height
Installation height for a standard 96” (2438mm) high kitchen ceiling is shown below.
Use the following formula to calculate installation height:
A = W – (X + Y+Z)
Where:
A = Installation height

W= Ceiling height
X = Cooktop surface height
Y = Range hood height
Z = Duct cover height (if desired)
Example: (A) Installation height = 96” – (36”+ 18” + 12”) = 30”
Example: (A) Installation height = 2438mm – (914mm + 457mm + 305mm) = 762mm
Optional Extras
Duct Covers
Duct covers may be used to fill the space between the range hood and the ceiling in wall mount installations. These
covers are available in 6” (152mm) and 12” (305mm) sizes and may be ordered separately, see ‘Parts and accessories’.
Refer to ‘Installation instructions’ for calculation of installation height to determine which duct cover(s) may be required.

Duct Cover Installation
1. Place the duct cover on the range hood.
2. From inside of range hood, insert the 5/16” (8mm) T20 (TORX) head machine screws through the 4 holes
in the duct cover (refer to A).
Multiple duct covers can be used if additional height is required. Duct covers are available in 6”
(152mm) and 12” (305mm) heights. Screw the duct covers together before placing them onto the
range hood and completing step 2.
Duct Transition
• The range hood is supplied with individual duct connection rings that connect to 8” (208mm) ducting, (refer to B).
• An optional transition may be ordered separately, please refer to ‘Parts and accessories’ for details. This can be
mounted to the top of the range hood to provide a single 10” (254mm) outlet.
• For wall mounting installation the transition should be installed before the range hood is mounted.
• For cabinet mounting installation the transition should be mounted after installing the range hood.

Duct Transition Assembly
1. Remove the individual 8” (203mm) duct connection rings (refer to B).
2. Place the transition piece over the range hood exhaust, secure from the inside of the range hood with 5/16”
(8mm) T20 (TORX) head machine screw provided with the transition (refer to C).
3. Seal the connection between the transition and range hood with aluminum tape (refer to D).
Infrared Heat Lamp & Panel Kit
If an optional infra-red heat lamp kit was purchased for installation with the range hood, assemble the kit to the range
hood prior to installation. See instructions supplied with
the kit for assembly to your range hood.
To avoid any electrical shock the installation of the infra-red heat lamp and panel kit should be done
by a qualified electrician and before starting the installation of the range hood.
