Any installation work must be
carried out by a qualified electrician or
competent person.
o The hood must be installed in
accordance with the installation
instructions and all measurements
followed.
oIt is dangerous to alter the
specifications or to modify this
product in any way. Do not tamper
with it or attempt to alter it in the
attempt to customise it further.
oWhen installing the hood,
ensure that the following
recommended distances are being
observed between the range top

fire hazard.
Never take out the
grease filters and
attempt to clean the
space above where they
are set.
________________________________________________
Anti-Grease Grille
Your range hood includes an anti-grease grille
which helps absorb vapour-suspended grease
particles to protect your kitchen & furniture from
greasy residues.
The metal grille may become inflammable if it
becomes saturated with greasy residue.
 To prevent this fire hazard, the grille should be
cleaned regularly (depending on use) every 10-15
days and at least once a month in hot water with
normal washing-up detergent. DO NOT USE A
DISHWASHER TO ACHIEVE THIS.
Cleaning your Range
Hood:

First remove the grille by pulling down on it. Undo the
side catches.
You can now clean the anti-grease filter grilles.
Soak them for about one hour in hot water with a
grease-loosening detergent then rinse off thoroughly
with hot water.
Repeat the process if needed. Refit the grease grille
once it has dried.
Refit the grease grilles when dry.
PLEASE NOTE DISCOLOURATION OF THE GREASE
FILTER CAN TAKE PLACE WHEN CLEANED IN A
DISHWASHER, ETC. Do not worry about the slight
discolouration of the grille –its performance won’t
be affected.
Let the filter grilles ry thoroughly before refitting
them.
