Installation Instructions
Installation Safety
• WARNING: Before starting the installation, please refer
to the Safety Information section.
• Always switch the power off to the rangehood prior to
beginning installation or maintenance.
• The exterior surfaces can be easily damaged during
installation. Wherever possible, protect the rangehood
with a cardboard box, plastic or a towel.
• A power point must be located within 1.5m of the power
cord exit from the rangehood, and it should be always
accessible to allow isolation from power during cleaning
or maintenance.
• All ducting must comply with building codes and local
statutory requirements.
• If you are re-circulating the air as opposed to ducting,
please ensure that the outlet grilles are not obstructed
in any way, as this will affect the efficiency of the
rangehood’s extraction.
• Ensure that the rangehood is mounted in a level
position, both horizontally and vertically. This is essential
to ensure the rangehood operates correctly, preventing
lopsided grease build up at either end.
• IMPORTANT: Never use a silicone around your
rangehood or flue pieces. Never install the rangehood
or flue pieces into the plaster ceiling which prevents easy
access to the rangehood for servicing requirements.
• IMPORTANT: Before installing your rangehood, please
record the details of your rangehood’s rating label
(located within the rangehood, behind the aluminium
grease filters) into the form on page 19. This will be
helpful should you need to contact our service team
in the future.
• The minimum distance between the supporting surface
for the cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part
of the rangehood. This distance shall be at least 65cm.
If the instructions for installation specify a smaller
distance, this has to be taken into account. The distance
of 65cm can be reduced for: non-combustible parts of
rangehoods, except grease filters, and parts operating
at safety extra low voltage, provided these parts do not
give access to live parts if deformed.
Electrical Connection
• Always check that the method of installation complies
with the standards of local building, gas and electrical
authorities. Before connecting your rangehood to the
mains supply, ensure that the mains voltage corresponds
to the voltage on the rating plate inside the rangehood.
• Always wear proper protection during installation and
maintenance. All work must be carried out by a qualified
technician or similarly qualified person.
• IMPORTANT: Failure to install the appliance correctly
could invalidate any warranty or liability claims.
