Part 1 - INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1 - GENERAL
This hood is constructed ready for installation in the bottom part of an overhead unit fixed above a
cooker and fastened to a wall.
It can be used either in the ducting version (evacuation of air to the outside) or in the filter version
(internal recirculation of air).
2 - SAFETY WARNINGS
2.1 - When used in the extraction mode the cooker hood ducting must not be connected to
a flue which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances supplied with energy other
than electric such as a central heating flue or water heating flue.
2.2 - Before connecting to the mains supply ensure that the mains voltage corresponds with
the voltage on the rating plate inside the hood.
2.3 - Connect the cooker hood to the mains via a double pole switch which has 3 mm
clearance between the contacts.
2.4 - The appliance must be earthed.
2.5 - When installed, the hood must be positioned at least 65 cm above a cooking
appliance.
2.6 - Never do flambé cooking under this cooker hood.
2.7 - Never leave frying pans unattended during use as overheated fats and oils may catch
fire.
2.8 - Before carring out any kind of maintenance or cleaning, disconnect the hood from
the mains supply.
2.9 - If the room where the cooker hood is to be used contains a fuel burning appliance
such as a central heating boiler then this must be of the room sealed or balanced flue
type. If other types of flue or appliance are fitted ensure that there is an adequate
supply of air into the room. When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with other
appliances supplied with energy other than electric, the negative pressure in the room
must not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back into the room by the
cooker hood.
3 - INSTALLATION
This device belongs to the category of semi-fitted hoods.
The top part (height 13 cm) is inserted into the overhead unit.
The bottom carriage, which can be extracted, remains outside the overhead unit when assembled,
and must be pulled out into the working position.
This hood can be installed in two different ways.
3.1 - Installation using screws (without quick-connection clips)
To fix the top part of the hood to the inside of the overhead unit, the base of the unit must be at a
distance of 13 cm from the lower edge.
