c. At least 20cm distance from side walls (see fig 1).

f. Clean the grille and blades regularly.

3. Cut the hole using a jigsaw, keyhole saw or hacksaw along the marked line.
4. Remove the grille (simply pulls free of the frame) and connect the plug to the power outlet. Insert the fan
assembly into the opening. For ceilings 13mm or less use step a). For thicker ceilings use step b).

ceiling. Push the fan into the ceiling opening and secure the exhaust fan by tightening the screws securely
(See Fig 2).
b) Remove the three bar clamps. Use wood screws (not supplied) to secure the fan to the ceiling. Locate
screws in the 3 holes in the outer lip of the fan frame.

6. Precautions must be taken to avoid the back-flow of gases into the room from an open flue of gas or other
open-fire appliances.
