Before you start installation
●
●
Ensure you have read the ‘Installation preparation’ section of this guide.
●
●
Unpack the rangehood.
●
●
Ensure the voltage (V) and the frequency (Hz) indicated on the serial plate match the
voltage and frequency of the installation site.
●
●
Check all functions of the rangehood are working.
●
●
Check that the area above and behind the installation surface is clear of any electrical cables
or pipes and there is proper clearance for the ducting etc.
●
●
The rangehood surfaces can be damaged during installation if grazed or knocked by tools.
Please take care to protect the surfaces during installation.
●
●
Remove protective wrappings that will not be accessible after installation.
●
●
Protect the cooktop to prevent damage occurring whilst the rangehood is being installed above.
●
●
The wall or cabinet used for mounting the rangehood should have sufficient strength and
a flat surface.
1
Ensure the cabinetry has the required cutout for insertion of the rangehood. Refer to the
‘Cabinetry cutout dimensions’ section of this installation book.
2
If you are using a duct adaptor this must be installed to the rangehood prior to the
rangehood being mounted. Please refer to ‘Duct adaptor assembly’ for details on how to
install your duct adaptor.
3
Ensure the mounting brackets are set to the correct position for installation by checking
the top of the foot lines up with the notches (refer to
C
). Note: Adjusting the mounting
bracket up or down from this position prior to installation could cause the rangehood to be
difficult to install and/or damage the cabinetry.
4
Lift the rangehood into the opening until the spring loaded mounting brackets click into
place and support the weight of the rangehood (refer
D
). For larger size rangehoods this will
require two people. Note: Depending on the cabinetry base panel thickness the rangehood
will be protruding below the cabinetry until tightened.
5
Secure the rangehood into the cabinetry by tightening each of the mounting brackets in
a
counterclockwise
direction (refer to
E
). Tighten each bracket in succession around the
rangehood to close the gap incrementally for each bracket.
6
Plug the supplied power cord into the rangehood and wall socket (refer to
F
)
