SAFETY
WARNING: The installation of WHISPAIR rangehoods must comply with the information in this guide. Failure to install the
rangehood in accordance with these installation instructions may result in electrical hazards, injury, damage to your appliance
and loss of warranty. Specically, failure by the installer to install the screws or xing devices in accordance with these
installation instructions may result in electrical hazards. Please install the appliance as detailed in these instructions.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
There shall be adequate ventilation of the room when the range hood is used at the same time as appliances burning gas or other
fuels.
The air must not be discharged into a ue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels (not
applicable to appliances that only discharge the air back into the room).
Exhaust from a kitchen range hood must discharge directly or via a shaft or duct to outdoor air as per the local state and council
regulations.
There is a re risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions.
Bafe lters and grease trap must be regularly cleaned (every 4 weeks) to reduce the risk of re.
CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances. Stainless steel bafe lter edges can be sharp
when handling and cleaning.
Ensure the rangehood is switched off and power source cable unplugged before carrying out maintenance, to avoid any possibility
of electric shock.
Always use non-ammable materials to minimize the risk of re.
Do not ambé under the range hood.
Always cover lit gas burners with pots or pans when cooker hood is in use.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualied persons in order to
avoid a hazard.
Please ensure the hood is securely xed to the support as detailed in this guide. The method of xing stated is not to depend on
the use of adhesives as they are not a means of reliable xing.
The height of the underside of the hood body must be a minimum of 600mm above an electric cooktop, for a gas cooktop a
minimum of 650mm measured from the supporting surface of the trivet for the cooking vessels (excluding the wok support) to the
underside of the hood body and a minimum height of 1200mm above BBQ cookers. If the instructions of the hob specify a greater
distance than the minimum detailed, this shall be the minimum height for installation.
DUCTING AND EXTRACTION LEVELS
WHISPAIR ducting (not supplied) is designed to ensure optimum performance for your rangehood. Please follow the installation
instructions carefully.
Every WHISPAIR rangehood must be ducted to the outside environment by the use of non-ammable ducting. The rangehood
must not be ducted into a wall cavity or a ceiling space where a build-up of grease can occur and become a potential re risk.
Ensure the external outlet on the KLEENAIR unit is not covered and the air ow is not restricted in any way as this may result in
reduced performance.
The duct must at all times have a cross sectional surface area equivalent to the hood outlet. The rectangular hood outlet (Ultra
motor models) has an approximate area of 21,992mm2 and the 150mm diameter round outlet (Power motor models) has an area
of 17,696mm2. Do not reduce the duct size at any time and avoid sharp bends. If the duct run is longer than six (6) metres, it
may be necessary to enlarge the duct size to ensure optimum performance. The manufacturer does not guarantee performance
when the duct length is greater than six (6) metres.
Ensure that all ducting is correctly tted and sealed with pipe clips, duct tape or silicone to ensure that fumes do not escape prior
to reaching the KLEENAIR fan motor unit.
The WHISPAIR extraction calculations are based upon a 50pa change of head of pressure loss and are used to factor the variance
of air ow resistance through the ducting. 50pa is equivalent to approximately four (4) metres (the recommended length) of exi
ducting with one gentle bend, which is above and beyond the industry standard of one straight metre of ducting. The KLEENAIR
ULTRA offers a powerful 1680 cubic metres per hour (466 litres per second) and the KLEENAIR POWER offers a powerful 1020
cubic metres per hour (283 litres per second) of air movement.

SERVICING
The installation and tting of the rangehood should be done in such a way that will allow the unit to be removed if service is
required. Additional costs incurred in the removal, such as damage to walls, are not covered under warranty.
It is expected that the stainless steel is cleaned with a quality non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner. The bafe lters and grease
trap are removable and dishwasher safe. It is recommended that these items be cleaned regularly.
The KLEENAIR unit should be checked regularly to ensure that nothing is obstructing the air ow from the housing.
DUCTING OPTIONS
