Ducted

For ducted installation it is recommended that 150 mm diameter, rigid or semi-rigid ducting is used. This will require a 160 mm (min) round hole in the ceiling or wall. Care should be taken to position the hole correctly.

For optimal efficiency use the shortest and straightest duct route possible and use rigid or semi-rigid ducting for reduced noise and increased airflow. Flexible metal ducting should only be used as a last resort (ie in difficult installations) and if used ensure that it is straight and smooth and extended as much as possible.

Recirculating

To enable the product to operate with the air recirculating, please purchase a recirculation diverter and carbon filters (refer to the ‘Parts and accessories’ section). The recirculation diverter is required to channel the air out the side vents at the top of the chimney and the carbon filters are required to remove odours.

Note: a ducting hole is not required in the wall or ceiling if the rangehood is installed to operate with exhaust air recirculating.

WARNING!

• This product is heavy and requires two persons for installation.
• Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) .In accordance with all applicable codes and standards
• Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result i electrical hazards

Installation

Ensure there is a power socket accessible behind the chimney.

• Please read the instructions carefully.
• Unpack the rangehood.
• Ensure that the voltage (V) and the frequency (Hz) indicated on the serial plate match the voltage and frequency at the installation site.
• Check that all functions are working.
• Check that the area behind the installation surface to be drilled is clear of any electrical cables or pipes, etc.
• The rangehood surfaces can be damaged during installation if grazed or knocked by tools. Please take care to protect the surfaces during installation.
• Protect the cooktop surface with cardboard, or the like, to prevent damage occurring whilst the rangehood is being installed above.
• Temporarily mark the height of the bottom of the rangehood and the centre of the cooktop on the wall according to the information given in the ‘Installation instructions - Height of rangehood’ section.
• The wall used for mounting the rangehood should have sufficient strength and a flat surface.

2. Attach chimney brackets and rangehood mounting screws to the wall

There are two methods of installation possible. One uses the supplied bracket. The other method attaches the rangehood to screws directly.

• Attach the Inside chimney bracket and the Hood mounting bracket in the locations shown in . Use ST4*40mm screws.
• OR Attach the Inside chimney bracket and the two mounting screws in the locations shown in pic 2 . Use ST4*40mm screws. Ensure that there is a 2-5mm gap between the screw head and the wall. See pic 1

Use the wall plugs if required.

5. Extend the ducting through the hole to the external vent.

6. Plug the range hood in and turn the power on.

7. Adjust the height of the inside chimney to the position of the inside chimney bracket and fix it with screws (2pcs ST4*8mm). See 11.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING!

Unplug or disconnect the appliance from the power supply before servicing or cleaning.

IMPORTANT!

• Never use abrasive or oil based cleaners.
• Wear gloves to protect against sharp edges.

Maintenance

The rangehood should be cleaned regularly using a mild, liquid detergent and a clean soft cloth to avoid a build-up of grease occurring. Avoid the use of corrosive chemicals, abrasive cleaning products, hard brushes and steel wool pads. Grease deposits are corrosive which can cause damage to your rangehood.

Note: in areas of high humidity or coastal environments, cleaning should be carried out more frequently.

GREASE MESH FILTERS

As needed the aluminium grease filters should be removed and cleaned with h ot soapy water or washed separately in a dishwasher.

If washed in a dishwasher, the filter should be placed in an upright position. After rinsing and drying, replace the filters.

Note: Discolouration of the filters may occur.

INSTALLING GREASE MESH FILTERS

• To install filters for the following four steps:

1. Angle the filter into the slots at the back of the hood.
2. Push the button on the handle of the filter.
3. Release the handle once the filter fits into a resting position.
4. Repeat to install all filters.

Carbon filters – for use in recirculation mode

Active carbon filters are disposable items designed to remove grease and odours from cooking vapours before the air is channelled back into the kitchen. The active carbon filters must be replaced periodically to work properly, at least every three months, depending on the frequency with which the rangehood is used.

Note: fully saturated carbon filters can become a barrier to air movement therefore limiting rangehood performance. In the event of fire, grease laden filters could be flammable and therefore regular replacement is recommended.

CARBON FILTER-not supplied

Activated carbon filter can be used to trap odors. Normally the activated carbon filter should be changed every 3 to 6 months according to your cooking habits. The installation procedure of activated carbon filter is as below:

1. Before installing or replacing the carbon filters, disconnect the mains power to the unit.
2. Press the filter lock and remove the mesh filter.
3. Turn the carbon filter on both sides of the motor anti - clockwise. Replace the carbon filters with the new carbon filters
4. Replace the mesh filter.
5. Connect the power supply to the wall socket.
