2 - INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Some installation systems require the opening and removal of the metal grille panel.
2.1 - Instructions for opening and removing the metal grille panel
To open the grille panel, press inwardly on the two slider catches at each side of the grille
panel and the grille will pivot down.
To remove the metal grille, pull forward on the right hand side so that the hinge pin on the
back of the grille will be released from the slot in the side of the casing.
2.2 - Wall cabinet fixing
a - Predrilled wall cabinet: fix the hood onto the wall cabinet base panel using the four screws 4.2
x 45 mm (supplied with the fixing kit).
It is not necessary to open the metal grille.
b - No predrilled wall cabinet:
b.1 - If the hood is provided with a paper fixing template, follow the instructions.
b.2 - If the hood is not provided with a paper fixing template, position the hood on the wall
cabinet base panel and pilot drill the 3.5 x 16 mm screws (not supplied with the fixing kit)
from the inside onto the wood.

2.3 - Wall mounting

a - Drill two Ø 8 mm holes on the wall using the paper template, insert two rawl plugs and two
4.2 x 44,4 mm screws leaving 5 mm untightened. Open the metal grille panel, hook the hood
on and fully tighten the screws.
b - If the hood is not provided with a paper fixing template, drill two Ø 8 mm holes (see draw.),
insert the plugs and screws, proceeding as directed under paragraph a.
c - For wall mounting using wallbrackets (optional), follow the instructions of the fixing tem-
plate.

2.4 - Choice of operating mode

To check that the hood is set up for evacuation, open the grille panel and make sure that the
conversion lever or the change-over knob on the centrifugal unit is in the DUCTING position.
The charcoal filter is not required.
For ducting to the outside, the hood is supplied with a rear and top outlet. A flange spigot of
100 mm diameter (120 mm in certain models) is usually fitted on the top outlet and a blanking
plug on the rear outlet. If you choose to duct the hood from the rear of the casing, you should
invert the position of the flange and of the blanking plug. Pay attention to the safety regulation
1.1.
b - Internal recirculation mode
To check that the hood is set up for recycling, open the grille panel and make sure that the
conversion lever or the change-over knob on the centrifugal unit is in the RECYCLING po-
sition.
The charcoal filter is to be fitted. To fit the charcoal filter, support the filter with one hand and
turn the thumb screw through the centre of the charcoal filter. If the filter is of the interlocking
type, turn the filter clockwise. The hood can remain connected to the outside.
2.5 - Electrical connection and working test
