installation 3
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.
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 (as per table on right hand side).
Exhaust duct installation: The following rules must be
strictly followed to obtain optimal air extraction.
• Keep exhaust duct short and straight
• Do not reduce the size or restrict exhaust duct.
• Keep bends in the exhaust duct to a minimum.
• When using exible duct 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 ue, 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 ne-tooth hack saw blade, taking care not to distort or
dent the exhaust cover.
Rangehood 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 (refer diagram bottom left).
NOTE: The height of the underside of the hood body must
be a minimum of 600mm above an electric cooktop &
650mm above a gas cook top and a maximum height of
800mm (refer to table below).
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
2. Mark the location for the wall and ceiling bracket xing
points above the hood base using the hood base as the
reference point (refer diagram bottom left).
3. Install wall and ceiling mounting brackets with suitable
screws (to support a total weight of 30kg) to the wall at the
positions marked in diagram bottom left.
4. Remove the protective plastic lm from the hood body
and hang hood on the mounting brackets then secure at
the anti-tilt locations as indicated in diagram bottom left.
Depending on the preferred installation/ducting mode,
follow step 5a or 5b below.
5a. Recirculating mode (Fig. a). Using the centre line,
secure the ceiling mount bracket to the wall using
suitable screws (screws not supplied). Attach the
recirculating T-piece to the ceiling mount bracket. Install
exible pipe between T-piece and fan transition outlet.
Use cable ties or suitable duct tape to secure exible
pipe to T-piece.
NOTE: When installed in recirculation mode, it is
recommended to use a carbon lter to prevent odours
being emitted back into the room.
OR
5b. Ducted mode (Fig. b). The canopy rangehood has been
supplied with exible exhaust pipe and duct transition
piece, alternatively a 150mm dia. non-combustible ue
pipe can be used. Continue the centre line to the ceiling.
Attach the ceiling mount bracket on the centre line. Fit
preferred ue pipe to the fan transition duct.
