INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Please ensure that all power is switched off before installing the
range hood. Installation must be in accordance to the local
electrical authority and codes.
The switched power outlet for the range hood should be positioned toenable the user toturn
the power off, toenable cleaning and any maintenance required.
The switched power outlet should be installed within 600mm from the rear ofthe range hood.
Ensure that when installing the range hood, that it is protected from any possible damage from
tools etc. Ducting for this range hood must be installed in accordance tothe local authority.
Ensure that the fixings used for this range hood are suitable.
Check the area where the range hood is to be fitted, toensure that itis
structurally sound. Before using the appliance, remove the plastic coatings
protecting the stainless steel finish.
The OMEGA ORS6WXA range hoods are intended to be fitted into kitchen cabinetry. They can
also be installed directly onto a wall ifrequired.
INSTALLATION OF THE OMEGA ORS6WXA RANGE HOOD DIRECTLY TO A WALL
Ensure that the wall is structurally sound, and is capable of carrying the weight ofthe range
hood. The range hood can be placed at a minimum of600mm away from anelectric
cooktop, or 650mm minimum from agas cook top.
Measure the distance between the two fixing holes on the back ofthe range hood.Due to
manufacturing processes, there may be slight variations on each range hood produced.
Mark the distance on the wall in the desired location, at the correct distance above the cooktop.
For timber framed houses, the range hood should be attached toa wall stud. Drill holes of a
suitable size to fix the screws into, which will take the weight of the range hood. Using a
screwdriver, attach the screws to the studs in the pre drilled holes, leaving an adequate amount
for the range hood torest on. Locate the range hood onto the screws, via the mounting holes in
the back of the range hood.
For masonry walls, mark the position ofthe holes onthe wall, and drill holes of a suitable size, to
accept the size of masonry anchor tobe used.Alternatively, awall plug of a suitable size may be
fitted. Fitthe masonry anchor (if being used) into the hole, orifusing wall plugs, attach a screw
into the plug. Allow an adequate amount of the screw oranchor out for the range hood to be
fitted onto. Locate the range hood onto the anchor orthe screw, via the mounting holes in the
back ofthe range hood.Fit the right angled brackets onto either side of the range hood using
the short 10mm bolts. Mark the position required onto the wall tofit the brackets. Drill the
holes in the wall, to accept either a screw or wall plug, depending on the wall structure. Attach
screws through the brackets and into the hole orwall plug drilled previously.
Fit the one way valve onto the range hood, ready for the ducting to be installed. Ifno ducting is
used, itis recommended that the optional charcoal filters be installed to clean the air being
exhausted back into the room.
See diagram below for any clarification required.

INSTALLATION OF THE OMEGA ORS6WXA RANGE HOOD TO A CABINET
The diagram below shows the distance required between the holes in the top of the range hood. Due
to manufacturing procedures, itisrecommended that the dimension be checked on the range hood
before installing. Please note that the exhaust air MUST flow through the opening at the top of the
range hood,either viaflexible ducting tothe outside, orinto the room through the cupboard itself
(using optional charcoal filters).
Drill the 6 x Ø4mm mounting holes & Ø130mm venting hole into the bottom of the cupboard. For a
ducted installation, drill a Ø120-Ø130mm hole for the ducting toexit. For a recycling installation, a
Ø120- Ø130mm hole should be cut out atthe top ofthe cabinet to allow the exhaust tore-enter the
room.
Fit the one way valve onto the range hood.
Install the range hood tothe bottom of the cupboard using the 35mm bolt supplied with the range
hood. The holes inthe range hood are already threaded. Fully tighten the bolts. Install the flashing
plate supplied with the range hood, tothe back of the range hood and underneath of the cupboard
using the 12mm screws. This is used to hide any gaps that may exist after fitting the range hood.
Ducting & charcoal filters can then be fitted (if needed) before the range hood isconnected tothe
power supply &turned on.
See diagram below forany clarification required.

either be ducted or, if the model isinstalled asa re-
circulating range hood, itmust be fitted with charcoal

CLEANING
SAFETY PRECAUTION
Before cleaning your range hood or performing any maintenance, please ensure that the range hood is
turned off at the power point.
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean the range hood. The use of warm soapy water and a cloth are
recommended. Ensure that the range hood is cleaned regularly, as a build-up of grease and fat may
occur otherwise.
The filters on the range hood must be cleaned regularly to maintain efficiency, and prevent grease
build up. It is recommended that this is undertaken every 4 – 6 weeks, depending on frequency of
use.
The filters can be cleaned with warm soapy water or a cloth, or they may be washed in a dishwasher. If
washed in a dishwasher, discolouration may occur to the mesh and frame.
Cleaning of the range hood must be performed as described above, otherwise there is a possibility of a
fire hazard due to grease and fat build up.
If the range hood is fitted with charcoal filters (for re-circulating) it is recommended that the filters be
changed every 3 – 4 months. Filter replacement will ensure correct function of the range hood, and
ensure that the air being re- circulated back into the room is clean.
