Important Safety Instructions
IMPORTANT: Read the assembly instruction section and safety precautions of this booklet carefully before removing
the contents of this carton.
1. In certain circumstances electrical appliances may be a safety hazard.
2. Do not try to use the cooker hood without the grease filters or if the filters are excessively greasy!
3. Do not install above a cooker with a high-level grill.
4. Do not leave frying pans unattended during use because overheated fats or oils might catch fire.
5. Never leave naked flames under the cooker hood.
6. If the cooker hood is damaged, do not attempt to use.
7. Do not flambé under the cooker hood.
8. CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.
9. The range hood must be mounted at a minimum distance of 60cm above the cooking surface.
10. The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas
or other fuels. Rangehoods and other cooking fume extractors may adversely affect the safe operation of
appliances burning gas or other fuels (including those in other rooms) due to back flow of combustion
gases. These gases can potentially result in carbon monoxide poisoning. After installation of a range hood
or other cooking fume extractor, the operation of open flued gas appliances should be tested by a
competent person to ensure that back flow of combustion gases does not occur.
11. Important! Always switch off the electricity supply at the mains during installation and maintenance such
as light bulb replacement.
12. The cooker hood must be installed in accordance with the installation instructions and all measurements
followed.
13. All installation work must be carried out by a competent person or qualified electrician.
14. Please dispose of the packing material carefully. Children are vulnerable to it.
15. Pay attention to the sharp edges inside the cooker hood especially during installation and cleaning.
16. Make sure the ducting has no bends sharper than 90 degrees as this will reduce the efficiency of the
cooker hood.
17. Warning: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in
electrical hazards.
18. Warning: Before obtaining access to terminals, all supply circuits must be disconnected.
19. Always put lids on pots and pans when cooking on a gas cooker.
20. When in extraction mode, air in the room is being removed by the cooker hood. Please make sure that
proper ventilation measures are being observed. The cooker hood removes odours from room but not
steam.
21. There shall be adequate ventilation of the room when the cooker hood is used at the same time as
appliances burning gas or other fuels.
22. Cooker hood is for domestic use only.
23. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
