SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This manual explains the proper installation and use of your cooker hood,
please read it carefully before using even if you are familiar with the product.
The manual should be kept in a safe place for future reference.
Never to do:
●Do not try to use the cooker hood
without the grease filters or if the filters
are excessively greasy!
●Do not install above a cooker with a
high level grill.
●Do not leave frying pans unattended
during use because overheated fats or
oils might catch fire.
●Never leave naked flames under the
cooker hood.
●If the cooker hood is damaged, do not
attempt to use.
●Do not flambé under the cooker hood.
●CAUTION: Accessible parts may
become hot when used with cooking
appliances.
●The minimum distance between the
supporting surface for the cooking
vessels on the hob and the lowest part
of the cooker hood. (When the cooker
hood is located above a gas appliance,
this distance shall be at least 65 cm)
●The air must not be discharged into a
flue that is used for exhausting fumes
from appliances burning gas or other
fuels. Range hoods and other cooking
fume extractors may adversely affect
the safe operation of appliances
burning gas or other fuels (including
those in other rooms) due to back flow
of combustion gases. These gases
can potentially result in carbon
monoxide poisoning. After installation
of a range hood or other cooking fume
extractor, the operation of open flued
gas appliances should be tested by a
competent person to ensure that back
flow of combustion gases does not
occur.
Always to do:
●Important! Always switch off the
electricity supply at the mains during
installation and maintenance such as
light bulb replacement.
●The cooker hood must be installed in
accordance with the installation
instructions and all measurements
followed.
●All installation work must be carried
out by a competent person or qualified
electrician.
●Please dispose of the packing material
carefully. Children are vulnerable to it.
●Pay attention to the sharp edges
inside the cooker hood especially
during installation and cleaning.
●Make sure the ducting has no bends
sharper than 90 degrees as this will
reduce the efficiency of the cooker
hood.
●Warning: Failure to install the screws
or fixing device in accordance with
these instructions may result in
electrical hazards.
●Warning: Before obtaining access to
terminals, all supply circuits must be
disconnected.

Always to do:
●Always put lids on pots and pans
when cooking on a gas cooker.
●When in extraction mode, air in the
room is being removed by the cooker
hood. Please make sure that proper
ventilation measures are being
observed. The cooker hood removes
odours from room but not steam.
●There shall be adequate ventilation of
the room when the cooker hood is
used at the same time as appliances
burning gas or other fuels.
●Cooker hood is for domestic use only.
●If the supply cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
●This appliance can be used by
children aged from 8 years and above
and persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or lack
of experience and knowledge if they
have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the
appliance in a safe way and
understand the hazards involved.
Children shall not play with the
appliance. Cleaning and user
maintenance shall not be made by
children without supervision.
Always to do:
●Caution: The appliance and its
accessible parts can become hot
during operation. Be careful to avoid
touching the heating elements.
Children younger than 8 years old
should stay away unless they are
under permanent supervision.
●There is a fire risk if cleaning is not
carried out in accordance with the
instructions
●Regulations concerning the discharge
of air have to be fulfilled.
●Clean your appliance periodically by
following the method given in the
chapter MAINTENANCE.

which are recommended in this
instruction manual.
●Regarding the details about the
method and frequency of cleaning,
please refer to maintenance and
cleaning section in the instruction
manual.
●Cleaning and user maintenance shall
not be made by children without
supervision.
●When the cooker hood and
appliances supplied with energy other
than electricity are simultaneously in
operation, the negative pressure in the
room must not exceed 4 Pa (4 x 10-
5bar).
●WARNING: Danger of fire: do not
store items on the cooking surfaces.
●Asteam cleaner is not to be used.

INSTALLATION (VENT OUTSIDE)
MOUNTING OF THE V-FLAP
If the cooker hood does not have an assembled V-flap 1, you should mount the half-
parts to its body.The images only show an example of how to mount the V-flap,
because the outlet may vary according to different models and configurations.
To mount the V-flap 1 you should:
• Mount two half-parts 2 into the body 6;
• the pin 3 should be top oriented;
• the axis 4 should be inserted into the holes 5 on the body;
• repeat all the operations for the 2nd half-part.
INSTALLATION
If you have an outlet to the outside, your cooker hood can be connected as below
picture by means of an extraction duct (enamel, aluminum, flexible pipe or non-
flammable material with an interior diameter of 150mm)
1. Before installation, turn the unit off.
2. The cooker hood should be placed at a distance of 65~75cm above the cooking
surface for best effect. See pic 1.

3. Install the hook on a suitable place once the installation height is fixed, and keep it
in line. The fixed position of the inside chimney bracket is the place of chimney.
See pic 2.
4. Attach the converter and expansion pipe, and fix the pipe on the converter with a
cable tie. Then put the cooker hood on the hook. See pic 3. Note:The expansion
pipe is not included in the product.
5. After adjust the height,fix the body with 2 pcs ST4*30mm safety screws. Note: The
two safety vents are positioned on the back housing, with diameter of 6mm. See
pic 4.
6. Lead the expansion pipe outside of the room, then use 2 pcs ST4*8mm screws to
install the outside chimney bracket onto the outside chimney, here should be sure
the inside chimney can be moved inside freely. See pic 5.
7. Put the two chimneys together onto the cooker hood body, meanwhile adjust the
height of the inside chimney into the suitable height, and fix the inside chimney to
the inside chimney bracket with 2 pcs ST4*8mm screws. See pic 6.

Electrical Installation
All installation must be carried out by a competent person or qualified electrician. Before
connecting the mains supply ensure that the mains voltage corresponds to the voltage on the
rating plate.
Direct Connection
The appliance must be connected directly to the mains using an omnipolar circuit breaker with
a minimum opening of 3mm between the contacts.
The installer must ensure that the correct electrical connection has been made and that it
complies with the wiring diagram.
The cable must not be bent or compressed.
Regularly check the power plug and power cord for damage. If the supply cord is damaged, it
must be replaced bya special cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or its service
agent.
WARNING: This is a Class I appliance and MUST be earthed
This appliance is supplied with a 3 core mains cable coloured as follows:
Brown = L or Live
Blue = N or Neutral
Green and Yellow = E or Earth
HINTS FOR EXHAUST DUCT INSTALLATION
The following rules must be strictly followed to obtain optimal air extraction:
• Keep expansion pipe short and straight.
• Do not reduce the size or restrict the expansion pipe.
• When using the 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 warmer tube, gas tube , hot wind
tube.
•The angle of the bend of the expansion pipe should not be less than 120º; you must
direct the pipe horizontally, or, alternatively, the pipe should go up from the initial point
and should be led to an outer wall.

•After the installation ,make sure that the cooker hood is level to avoid grease
collection at on end.
•Ensure the expansion pipe selected for installation complies with relevant standards
and is fire retardant.
