getting the rangehood professionally installed.
• WARNING: Professional installation only! This rangehood must
be installed by a suitably qualied person in strict accordance with
all instructions in this manual. All electrical work associated with the
installation of this rangehood must be carried out by a licensed electrician in
accordance with local and national electrical codes as applicable.
• Ventilation: As heat, steam and moisture will be created during use of the
appliance, take care to avoid injury and ensure that the room is adequately
ventilated. Additional ventilation may be required if the appliance is going
to be used for prolonged periods of time or at the same time as appliances
burning gas or other fuels. Consult your installer if you are in doubt about the
amount of ventilation required.
• Cables: Do not allow electrical ttings or cables to come into contact with
areas on the associated cooking appliance that gets hot.
• Air discharge: Make sure to follow your local laws that apply to external
air evacuation when installing and using the rangehood. The exhaust air
must not be discharged into a ue which is used for exhausting fumes from
appliances burning gas or other fuels.

cause re, electric shock or injury. Do not modify the appliance in any way.
• Use common sense: These instructions are not intended to cover every
possible condition and situation. As with any electrical household appliance,
common sense and caution are therefore always recommended when
installing, operating and maintaining the equipment.
• Usage restriction: This rangehood is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for

General Safety Instructions (Cont.)
• CAUTION! No open flame cooking: Do not use an open ame for cooking
underneath this rangehood; do not ambéunder the rangehood. Open
ames can damage the lters and present a re hazard.

• CAUTION! Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking
appliances.
• CAUTION! Do not touch the light bulbs after the appliance has been used as
they may be hot. Let them cool down before cleaning and maintenance.
• WARNING: Fire risk! Clean your rangehood regularly as instructed in this
manual. There is a re risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with
the instructions.
• Cleaning: The rangehood and its lter should be cleaned regularly to
avoid creating a re hazard. Before cleaning the rangehood or carrying
out maintenance, always switch the power off at the outlet and unplug the
rangehood. Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft cloth or sponge moistened
with warm water and a little non-abrasive, non-corrosive liquid detergent.
• No steam cleaning: Never use a steam cleaner for cleaning the appliance.
• Filter maintenance: The grease bafe lters must be cleaned regularly (at
least every two months) in order to prevent a re hazard. Regular cleaning
also ensures better efciency, as grease and grime can impede the airow.
The grease bafe lters are made of high-density stainless steel. Please
ensure you never use a corrosive detergent during cleaning. Refer to
page18 for comprehensive cleaning and maintenance instructions.
Do not check the status of the lters while the rangehood is in use.
If you install charcoal lters, also ensure to change them regularly (every
three to six months, depending on usage).
• Light source: The light source contained in this appliance (LED round
lamp, DBR-1.5-S-68, max. 1.5W, 12V, 68mm) must only be replaced by
the manufacturer or an authorised service agent. If the light source needs
replacing, please call our after sales support centre for a service.
• Damage: Do not use the rangehood if any part, including the supply cord,
has been damaged, is faulty or does not work properly. Only have it repaired
by an authorised service centre. Incorrect repair could expose you to the risk
of electric shock, re or injury. Prolonged use of the unit in such conditions
could cause re or electrocution. In case of damage, contact our after sales
support line for advice.
• Misuse: We assume no liability for any eventual damages caused by
incorrect installation, product misuse or noncompliance with the instructions.

Installation (Cont.)
WARNING!
• All electrical work associated with the installation of this rangehood
must be carried out by a licensed electrician.
• This rangehood must be correctly installed by a suitably qualied
person in strict accordance with all applicable rules and regulations
and following the instructions in this manual.
• Do not try to install the rangehood yourself; doing so will expose you
to danger and void the warranty. Improper installation, adjustment,
alteration or service can cause injury or damage. We decline any re-
sponsibility for injury or damage, to persons or property, as a result of
improper installation.
• The wall canopy is heavy. Take proper care during the installation to
prevent personal injury.
Important installation safety advice
• Make sure the power is switched off prior to beginning the installation.
• For safety reasons, this rangehood must be earthed.
• Ensure that the area behind the installation surface to be drilled is clear of
any electrical cables or pipes, etc. An electrical outlet must be located near
the power cord exit from the rangehood, and it should always be accessible
to allow isolation from power during cleaning or maintenance.
• As the glass and stainless steel surfaces are easily damaged during
installation, we recommend that, wherever possible, you protect the
rangehood with the cardboard box or plastic wrap during the installation. We
also recommend you protect the cooktop surface below with cardboard or
the like to prevent damaging it during the canopy installation.
• The rangehood must be mounted onto a solid wall, stud, beam or truss that
is strong enough to support the weight of the product (approx. 15.4kg).
• Ensure that the rangehood is mounted in a level position, both horizontally
and vertically. This is essential to ensure the rangehood operates correctly
and prevents grease build-up at one end.
• All ducting must comply with building codes and local requirements.
A 150mm round exhaust duct is supplied, however all other ducting
accessories are not included in the scope of this delivery.
• If you are not ducting but re-circulating the air, ensure that any side outlet
grilles are not obstructed as this will affect the efciency of the rangehood.

Ducting options
For optimum performance, this canopy rangehood should be vented to the
outside wherever possible, either straight up and through your roof (Fig. 2), or
through your wall (Fig. 3).
Alternatively, you may vent the duct into your ceiling cavity and then out
through your eaves (Fig. 4).
Important ducting advice
• Always use correctly sized ducting – DO NOT reduce the size of the ducting.
• Always use solid ducting – DO NOT use flexible ducting.
• Always use non-flammable ducting.
• Always duct to the outside – DO NOT duct into the ceiling space.
• Avoid sharp 90° bends as much as possible – use 120° bends instead
wherever possible.
• Duct to the outside atmosphere using the shortest duct run possible.
• Use cylindrical ducting whenever possible.
• After preparing the wall for ducting, and before installing the rangehood,
make sure the area is clean to avoid suction of any remaining bits of wood,
dust or sawdust.
Recirculating mode
This rangehood may also be installed in recirculating mode, where the air
is vented back into the kitchen after it has passed through charcoal lters.
However, operation in recirculating mode with charcoal lters installed
generally lowers the rangehood’s suction power. That is why these charcoal
lters are not included in the scope of this delivery.
Charcoal lters may not be cleaned and need to be replaced when required.
To purchase charcoal lters for this rangehood, please contact our after sales
support centre.

Other Useful Information
Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning the rangehood exterior
To protect the main body of your rangehood from corrosion or stains, clean
it regularly, at least every two months. Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft
microfibre cloth moistened with warm water and a little non-abrasive, non-
corrosive liquid detergent. Alternatively, use a dry cloth and a glass cleaner
for cleaning the glass canopy.
WARNING: Make sure to keep the motor and electrical connections dry.
Cleaning the grease baffle lters
The grease bafe lters must be cleaned regularly in order to prevent a re
hazard. Regular cleaning also ensures better efciency, as grease and grime can
impede the airow. We recommend cleaning them at least every two months.
The grease bafe lters are made of high-density stainless steel. Please ensure
you never use a corrosive detergent during cleaning.
• To remove the grease lters, squeeze the spring loaded latch with your
ngers and gently lower the lters out. Follow the same process to reinstall.
• To clean the lters, either handwash them or wash them in a dishwasher.
• For best results when handwashing the lters, wear gloves and use warm
water with a little dishwashing detergent. Leave the lters to soak for a few
minutes, then clean them with a soft brush. Do not apply too much pressure,
as the delicate lters can easily get damaged. Rinse with clean water.
• Alternatively, wash the grease lters in your dishwasher, making sure the water
temperature does not surpass 60°C.
• After cleaning, leave the lters to dry completely before reinstalling them into
the appliance.
WARNING: Never reinstall the lters when they are still wet.
CAUTION!
• Before cleaning the rangehood or carrying out maintenance, always
switch the power off at the outlet and unplug the rangehood.
• It is important to clean the lters regularly as oil and food residues can
become a re hazard.
• Do not use a corrosive detergent or an abrasive cloth as these could
damage the stainless steel and glass surfaces.
• Never use a steam cleaner to clean any part of the rangehood.
