• Always cover lit gas burners with pots or pans when canopy rangehood is in use.
• Always switch off gas burners before you remove pots or pans.
• Do not leave lit gas burners exposed due to the risk of fire.(Fig 2)
• The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity supply before beginning
any maintenance work.
• Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may
result in electrical hazards.
Electrical connection
Check that the mains voltage matches with the voltage on the data plate inside the canopy
rangehood. 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.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent
or similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
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. (Refer to Installation manual).
Exhaust flue installation: The following rules must be strictly followed to obtain optimal air
extraction.
• Keep exhaust flue short and straight.
• Do not reduce the size or restrict exhaust flue. Keep bends in the exhaust flue to a
minimum.
• When using semi-rigid flue 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 flue,
which may carry combustion products from other sources.
Range hoods 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 flued gas
appliances should be tested by a competent person to ensure that back flow of combustion
gases does not occur.
