o

If the room where the cooker hood is to be used contains a fuel 

burning  appliance  such  as  a  central  heating  boiler  then  its  flue 

must be of the sealed or balanced flue type. 

o

If other types of flue or appliances are fitted, ensure that there is 

an adequate supply of air in the room. 

o

When  the  hood  is  being  used  in  its  extractor  function,  ensure 

that  the  ducting  is  fire  retardant  and  that  there  are  no  bends 

sharper than 90 degrees as this will reduce the efficiency of the 

hood.

o

Ensure  the  ducting  for  the  extractor  function  has  the  same 

diameter as the outlet hole all the way through.  

o

Keep  young  children  from  using,  playing  with 

or  tampering  with  the  cooker  hood.    Older 

children  and  infirm  persons  should  be 

supervised if they are using the cooker hood.  

o

Your cooker hood is for domestic use only. 

o

Please  dispose  of  the  packing  material  carefully  –  children  are 

especially vulnerable to it. 

o

Dirty oil is an even greater fire risk. 

o

Always  put  lids  on  pots  and  pans  when  cooking 

on a gas cooker. 

o

The  manufacturer  refuses  to  accept  any  responsibility  for 

damages arising to the hood or it catching on fire, from a failure 

to  observe  the  fire  safety  advice  contained  in  this  instruction 

booklet.

o

Remember  that  when  in  extraction  mode,  your  cooker  hood  is 

removing  air  from  your  room.    Ensure  that  proper  ventilation 

measures are being observed.
