above the cooking surface when placed above an electric hob and
a minimum of 75 cm above the cooking surface when placed
above a gas cooktop. (Refer Pic 1).
2. To install, drill 3 holes of Ø 8mm along a level line at the desired
height. This line will hold the bracket that holds the canopy to the
wall. (Refer Pic 2). Insert the screws into the holes and fasten
securely to the wall, ensuring that the screws fix into material
that has sufficient load capacity to hold the weight of the canopy.
3. Add the ducting to the top of the canopy and fix firmly. Run the
ducting to the outside of the building as per the NZ Building Code requirements ensuring
that the ducting is not kinked or crimped in any way. (Refer to Pic 3).
4. Calculate the final height of the chimney cover and mark the position of the second bracket.
Affix the bracket to the wall at the desired height. (Refer to Pic 4).
5. Lift the first section of chimney cover onto the canopy. Place the second part of the chimney
cover inside the first and lift up to the final bracket height. Fix the chimney cover to the top
bracket using the screws provided and fix the body using the screws provided. (Refer to Pic 5
and Pic 6).
NOTE: If retrofitting these units into an existing building it may be necessary to remove part of
the scotia where the chimney cover meets the ceiling.

MAINTENANCE
Cleaning of the Mesh Grease Filter
The filter mesh is made of high-density aluminium and stainless steel. Please
do not use corrosive detergents on it. If using a dishwasher to clean filters,
please ensure that a non- caustic detergent is used. Keeping this filter clean
will keep the appliance running correctly.
Cleaning Method
Method 1: Put the mesh into 40-50℃clean soapy water. Allow soaking for several minutes.
Clean with a soft brush. Do not apply too much pressure as the mesh is delicate and will damage
easily.
Method 2: If the detergent used in the dishwasher is of a non-caustic type, mesh filters can be
put into a dishwasher. Set the temperature at around 60oC.
Cleaning of the Canopy
 Before cleaning the appliance, please remember to turn off the power.
 To protect the main body from corrosion over time, it is essential that the canopy be
frequently cleaned with hot water plus non-corrosive detergent.
 It is essential that the unit be dried with a suitable soft cloth after cleaning as residual
moisture can promote corrosion.
 Do not use abrasive agents for cleaning, as this will damage the stainless steel body.
 Keep the motor and other spare parts free from water, as this will cause damage to the
appliance.
