Environmental Note:
Before discarding an old appliance, switch off and disconnect it from the
power supply. Cut off and render any plug useless. Cut the cable off
directly behind the appliance to prevent misuse. This should be under-
taken by a competent person.

Your safety is of the utmost importance; please make sure that you read this
instruction booklet before attempting to install or use the appliance.
IMPORTANT: Any installation work must be carried out by a qualified
electrician or competent person.
The hood must be installed in accordance with the installation instructions
and all measurements followed.
If the cooker hood is installed for use above a gas appliance then the
provision for ventilation must be in accordance with the Gas Safety Codes
of Practice BS.6172, BS.5440 & BS.6891 (Natural Gas) and BS.5482 (LP
Gas) 1994, the Gas Safety (Installation & Use) Regulations, the Building
Regulations issued by the Department of the Environment, the Building
Standards (Scotland) (Consolidated) Regulations issued by the Scottish
Development Department.
It is dangerous to alter the specifications or to modify this product. Do not
tamper with it or attempt to modify the appliance in any way.
When installing the hood, the following recommended minimum distances
must be observed between the highest point on the hob top (including the
burners) and the bottom of the cooker hood:
Electric cookers: 650mm
Gas cookers: 650mm
Coal/ oil cookers: 800mm
When installed between adjoining wall cabinets, the cabinets must not
overhang the hob.
The edges of the cooker hood may be sharp – handle your appliance with
care, especially during installation and cleaning. DO NOT CLEAN IN
BEHIND THE GREASE FILTERS!
If the room where the cooker hood is to be used contains a fuel burning
appliance such as a central heating boiler then its flue must be of the
sealed or balanced flue type.
If other types of flue or appliances are fitted, ensure that there is an
adequate supply of air in the room.
When the hood is being used in its ducted-out mode, ensure that the
ducting is fire retardant and that there are no bends sharper than 90
degrees as this will reduce the efficiency of the hood.
Important Safety Information 3

Ensure the ducting for the extractor function has the same diameter as the
outlet hole all the way through.
Keep young children from using, playing with or tampering with the cooker
hood. Older children and vulnerable people should be supervised
if they are using the cooker hood.
Your cooker hood is for domestic use only.
Please dispose of the packing material carefully – children are especially
vulnerable to it.
Always put lids on pots and pans when cooking.
The manufacturer refuses to accept any responsibility for damages arising
from a failure to observe the fire safety advice contained in this instruction
booklet.
Remember that when in ducted-out mode, your cooker hood is removing air
from your room. Ensure that proper ventilation measures are being
observed.
Warning - Always ensure that the cooker hood has been disconnected
from the power supply before carrying out any work on the hood,
including replacing light bulbs.
Do not connect the ducting system of this appliance to any existing
ventilation system which is being used for any other purpose.
Do not install above a cooker with a high level grill.

IMPORTANT: BEFORE CLEANING, ALWAYS ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE
SWITCHED YOUR COOKER HOOD OFF AT THE MAINS SWITCH.
Clean the external parts of your cooker hood with mild liquid detergent and a
damp cloth.
Never use abrasive powder, corrosive solvents or brushes.
Never insert pointed objects into the motor’s protective grid.
If you are using the appliance in recirculation mode, then be sure to replace
the carbon filter at the recommended interval (see section on “Fitting the
carbon filter”). A build up of grease could cause a fire hazard.
IMPORTANT: You should regularly use a good quality stainless steel
cleaner to maintain the shine and finish on the stainless steel areas
of your cooker hood, this will help to leave a silicone water-resistant
film to protect the stainless steel surfaces and keep them in good
condition for the life of the product.
The grease filters
Your cooker hood includes grease filters which help to absorb grease
particles to protect your kitchen & furniture from greasy residues.
These metallic filters may become inflammable if they become saturated
with this greasy residue.
To prevent this fire hazard, the filters should be cleaned regularly.
Depending on use, this should be done every 10-15 days or at least once a
month, using hot water and normal washing-up detergent.
DO NOT WASH THE GREASE FILTERS IN A DISHWASHER.
Care and Cleaning

Removing and cleaning the grease filters
First remove the grease filters by pushing in the button on the handle and
pulling the filter away from the cooker hood.
Soak the grease filters in hot water and washing up liquid for at least 3
minutes. Then use a soft brush to loosen any grease deposits that have
formed.
Rinse the grease filters off thoroughly with hot water.
Repeat the process if necessary.
Refit the grease filters once they have dried.
IMPORTANT: Let the grease filters dry thoroughly before refitting
them in the cooker hood.
Changing light bulbs
IMPORTANT: Before attempting to change a light bulb, you must ensure
that you have disconnected the cooker hood from your mains supply.
Use a screwdriver to remove the
cover on the underneath of the
cooker hood (as shown in the line
drawing above).
Prior to touching the light bulbs
ensure that they have cooled down.
Unscrew the light bulb that needs
to be replaced and insert a new
E14 40W (max) olive shaped bulb.
If the lights still do not work, make
sure that the bulbs are correctly
fitted into their housings before you
call for technical assistance.
Re-fit the cover and secure it in place using a screwdriver.
Care and Cleaning 7

Fitting the carbon filter
If the appliance is to be used in recirculation mode then it is necessary to fit a
carbon filter. This will help to absorb unpleasant odours caused by cooking.
IMPORTANT: BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO FIT OR REMOVE THE
CARBON FILTER, YOU MUST ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE
DISCONNECTED THE COOKER HOOD FROM YOUR MAINS SUPPLY.
Remove the grease filters (as described previously). IMPORTANT: Check
that the cooker hood is set to recirculation mode (see page 10 for further
information).
Press the carbon filter against one end of the motor, the fixing point is in
the centre of the carbon filter.
Turn the carbon filter clockwise, until you feel it click into place.
Refit the grease filters.
The carbon filter should be replaced every 3 - 6 months or if they show
signs of damage.

Installation 9
We recommend that at least two people install this hood.
IMPORTANT: YOUR COOKER HOOD SHOULD ONLY BE CONNECTED
TO YOUR MAINS SUPPLY AFTER COMPLETION OF THE
INSTALLATION PROCESS
Before beginning the installation
Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the chosen
installation area. In addition check whether there is an electrical socket
available that will be accessible once the hood is mounted. If the product
is going to be used in extraction mode, then there should also be space to
connect a ducting hose to the outside.
Before commencing installation of the cooker hood the grease filter should
be removed.
Check inside the product and insure that there is no transit packaging or
any other materials, such as packets of screws, guarantees etc. These
should be removed and kept for future use.
If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slot-in cookers from their
position, to provide easier access to the rear wall and ceiling. If this is not
possible, then a thick, protective covering should be placed over the
worktop, hob top or cooker. This will help to protect these surfaces from
damage and debris.
Select a flat surface for assembling the cooker hood and cover the
surface with a protective covering.
IMPORTANT: Please refer to the information on page 3 regarding the
minimum height required between the hob top and the underneath
of the cooker hood.
Rawl plugs are provided to secure the hood to most types of walls and
ceilings, however a qualified technician must verify the suitability of the
materials, in accordance with the type of wall and ceiling. The wall and
ceiling must be strong enough to take the weight of the hood.
Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. This appliance is
designed to be wall mounted or fitted inside a cupboard unit only.

Ducted out or Recirculating ?
In ducted-out mode, the stale air will be taken out of the room via external
ducting.
In recirculation mode stale air is taken via the grease filter(s), and passed
through a charcoal filter to remove odours. The air then re-enters the kitchen
via an opening in the hood.
For optimum performance, we recommend that the cooker hood is used in
ducted-out mode and connected to external ducting.
Do I need a charcoal filter?
All cooker hoods have a grease filter(s) but if you are using your cooker hood
in recirculation mode, then a charcoal filter must be fitted in addition to the
grease filter(s).
Recirculation mode
Remove the grease filters as described on page 7
Move the mode lever, behind the grease filter to the position shown.
In recirculation mode, ensure that the cover is tted over the hole in the top
of the cooker hood. This will force the air ti exit through the vent at the front
of the appliance
Installation 10

Connecting to external ducting (ducted-out mode)
IMPORTANT: To use the cooker hood in ducted-out mode, you must
ensure that the adjuster which is behind the grease filter is set in the
position shown.
IMPORTANT: The cooker hood can be ducted from the rear or from the top.
The following steps should be taken before fitting the appliance.
If you want to connect the duct hose to
the rear of the cooker hood, then you
should place the cover over the venting
hole on the top of the appliance.
If you want to connect the duct hose to the
top of the cooker hood, then you should
place the cover over the venting hole on
the rear of the appliance. Then fit the
coupling to the venting hole on the top of
the appliance.
In a position that is suitable and will be accessible once the cooker hood is
installed, cut out a circle measuring 130 mm in diameter. This discharge
outlet should be suitable for cooking vapours. It should have a cross
section of at least 150 cm².
Connect a 125 mm ducting hose to the hole that you have just cut out
(please note that the ducting hose is not supplied with the appliance).
Connect the other end of the 125 mm ducting hose to the top or the rear of
the cooker hood.
The maximum distance between the cooker hood and your discharge
outlet should be 3 metres, with one 90 degree bend. For each additional
90 degree bend, the maximum distance is reduced by a metre.
Installation 11

Installing your cooker hood (wall mounted)
Remove the grease filters (see page 7).
Hold the hood against the wall in the
intended position and mark the position
of the screw holes that are to be drilled.
Using an 8mm diameter drill, drill holes
in the wall in these positions.
Insert rawl plugs into all of the holes that
you have drilled.
Screw in the upper set of screws leaving 10 mm protruding out of the wall.
Hang the hood onto the upper screws and then fully tighten them.
Screw the lower screws through the relevant holes in the cooker hood and
fully tighten them.

of the cupboard that you are intending to
install it into and mark the position of the
fixing holes (as shown).
Using a 6 mm diameter drill, make holes
on the underside of the cupboard in the
positions marked.
Position the hood against the underneath
of the cupboard again, making sure that
the holes in the hood line up with the holes that you have just drilled.
From inside of the cooker hood, tighten the screws through the holes in the
underneath of the cupboard. IMPORTANT: These screws must all be fully
tightened.
Completing the installation
The appliance should now be connected to the electrical supply. See page
