Part 1 - INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1 - GENERAL INFORMATION
This hood has been designed to be wall-mounted above a cooking hob. It can be
installed under a wall unit or directly onto a wall. It can work either by ducting system
(external discharge) or filter (internal recirculation).
Before starting the installation,
consideration should be given to the difficulties to be found during installation.
The installation work must be undertaken by a qualified and competent person
in conformity to the rules concerning the evacuation of contaminated air. The
manufacturer disclaims all liability for any damage or injury caused as a result
of not following the instructions for installation contained in the following text.
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 bipolar switch which has 3mm
clearance between the contacts.
2.4 - The device does not require earthing, as it is double-insulated.
2.5 - When installed, the hood must be positioned at least 65 cm above the hotplate.
2.6 - Never do flambé cooking under this cooker hood.
2.7 - Never leave frying pans unattended during use as overheated fat and oil may catch
fire.
2.8 - Before carrying 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 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.
