Refer to New Zealand standard NZECP2: 1988 Section 4.6 and Australian Standard AS3000:1991, Section 6.2.

SAFETY NOTE

This appliance 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 their safety. Children should be

supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

As this appliance does not have a plug included with the supply cord, appropriate means of disconnection

are required to be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the AS/NZS wiring rules. If the supply

cord is damaged, the entire unit must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly

qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard. Precautions must be taken to avoid the back-flow of gases

into the room from the open flue of gas or other fuel-burning appliances. Ensure that the fan is switched off

from the supply mains before removing the guard

CLEANING

To clean the fascia, simply wash it by hand with a damp cloth and warm soapy water.

Do not use abrasives or solvent cleaners.

FAN PLACEMENT

The fan needs to be placed as far away from the air flow entering the room as possible.

As this will mean fresh air is drawn throughout the room.

FAN EFFICIENCY

The main points affecting fan efficiency are:

1) Good fan placement

2) Good air flow into the room

IMPORTANT NOTE

When installing the Fascia Mounting Back (refer to steps 1~3), ensure that the hole you cut is round and

does not put any pressure on the sides of the Fascia Mounting Back, which may distort it making of it

difficult to clip the fascia on.

1. Position the motor mounting back in the area you want your ClearFlow™ Wall and using the template

provided as a guide draw the circle with a pencil to mark the cutting hole size.

2. Use a saw to cut out the pencil drawn lines. Before you cut be sure to check the location of the wall

studs and nogs. The fan assembly must fit freely in the hole. See important note at the bottom of the

page.

3. Measure the position for the outlet vent from the hole you have just cut, and using the vent as a guide,

draw the circle with a pencil to mark the cutting hole size.

4. Use a saw to cut out the pencil drawn lines. It is important that the two holes you have cut line up.

5. Stretch the Ducting to its full length and cut using a knife, so that the ducting protrudes through the

inner wall by 40mm.

6. Fit the flexible ducting to the outlet vent and slide vent back and cover into place using the four screws

provided. Press the grill into the outlet vent and click into place

7. Wire the fan unit into the wall cavity then screw the fan assembly to the wall and test. Connect the

wiring as illustrated in the wiring diagram above.

COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION

Slide the ducting over the fan unit and fold the wire so the whole assembly can be pushed back into the

wall. Slide the motor mounting back into place and screw into place using the four screws provided (use

the outer most screw holes). Press the grill onto the motor mounting back and click into place. Ensure the

fascia mounting back is perpendicular to the wall.
