SAFETY WARNINGS – FOR THE INSTALLER
When installing the cooker hood, make sure
you adhere to the minimum and maximum
distances from the cooker hood base to the
hob surface (refer to page 7).
Exhaust flue installation: The following rules
must be strictly followed to obtain optimal air
extraction.
Keep exhaust flue short and straight.
Do not reduce the size or restrict exhaust flue.
Keep bends in the exhaust flue to a minimum.
When using flexible flue always install duct
with helix pulled taut to minimise pressure loss.
Failure to observe these basic instructions will
drastically reduce the performance and
increase the noise levels of the cooker hood.
Exhaust air must not be discharged into a wall
cavity, unless the cavity is designed for that
purpose. The exhaust from the cooker hood
must not be discharged into any heating flue,
which may carry combustion products from
other sources.
NOTE: Some installations may require the
telescopic exhaust cover to be cut to length.
Cut with sharp tin snips or a fine-tooth hack
saw blade, taking care not to distort or dent
the exhaust cover.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Check that the mains voltage matches with the
voltage on the data plate inside the canopy
rangehood. Check that the installation complies
with standards of local building, gas and
electrical authorities. Before connecting to the
mains supply ensure that the mains voltage
corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate
inside the cooker hood.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer or its service
agent or similarly qualified person in order to
avoid a hazard.

PRE-INSTALLATION
LOCATION
Before installing the cooker hood, peel off any protective plastic covering and remove polystyrene from inside behind
The hood is to be mounted on the wall. When installed, the hood must be not less than 60cm above electric burners or
65cm above gas or mixed-fuel burners.
Distance from hood base to top of hob
hob type minimum* maximum
gas 650mm 800mm
electric 600mm 800mm
* If the instructions of the hob specify a greater distance than the minimum above, then that shall be the minimum height
for installation.

INSTALLATION
1. Using a spirit level mark a vertical centre line on the wall where the hood is to be positioned, and a horizontal line
at the hood base position. (See Figure 4 for relevant model)
NOTE. The height of the underside of the hood body must be a minimum of 600mm* to a maximum height of 800mm.
* If the instructions of the hob specify a greater distance than the minimum above, then that shall be the minimum
height for installation.
2. Mark the location for the flue cover wall mounting brackets and rangehood mounting points and anti-tilt fixing
points above the hood base using the hood base as a reference point

voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate
inside the rangehood.
8. Installation of telescopic flue covers
Separate the inner and outer flue covers, and carefully
remove the protective coating from both. Carefully
reassemble the upper and lower flue covers sections by
sliding the inner into the outer flue cover. Carefully lower
