- INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1 - GENERAL INFORMATION
This canopy hood is designed to be fixed to any rigid vertical surface, over a cooking area.
Connect the hood to a remote blower, which may be positioned either inside or outside the home.
In certain models, the front element can be personalized by fitting wooden panels of approx 5mm
thickness.
Before commencing the installation, consideration should be given to the difficulties to be found
during installation and to the bulky weight of the hood.
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 - COMPONENTS
The cooker hood is made up of the following components (fig. 1):
No. 1 canopy C, including controls, worktop illumination and fan unit
No. 1 telescopic chimney stack formed by:
- l U-shaped upper section S
- l U-shaped lower section I
No. l extraction ducting spigot A Ø 120mm
No. l fixing kit including:
No. 4 wall brackets 1, 2, 3, 4
- rawl plugs and screws
- fixing documentation
No. l splashback B (available on request)
3 - SAFETY WARNINGS
3.1 - 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.
3.2 - Before connecting to the mains supply ensure that the mains voltage corresponds with the
voltage on the rating plate inside the hood.
3.3 - Connect the cooker hood to the mains via a double pole switch which has 3mm clearance
between the contacts.
3.4 - The appliance must be earthed.
3.5 - When istalled, the hood must be positioned at least 65cm above a cooking appliance.
3.6 - Never do flambé cooking under this cooker hood.
3.7 - Never leave frying pans unattended during use as overheated fats and oils may catch fire.
3.8 - Before carring out any kind of maintenance or cleaning, disconnect the hood from the mains
supply.
3.9 - 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 other 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.

4 - INSTALLATION
For easy installation proceed as follows:
4.1 - Fix the wall brackets (and the splashback, if available)
4.2 - Customization of the front element
4.3 - Fix the canopy
4.4 - Connect the hood to the mains supply and ensure that it works properly
4.5 - Connect the hood to the remote blower
4.6 - Fix the telescopic metal frame
4.1 - Fix the wall brackets (and splashback)
Ref. to fig. 2:
1 - Draw a vertical line on the wall from the centre of the cooking appliance up to the ceiling, using a
marking pen. This is to ensure the correct vertical alignment of many components.
2 - Fixing the wall bracket No. 1:
a - Put the bracket 1 to the wall, aligning its marked centre across the vertical line, ensuring that the
distance between the centres of the holes and the cooking area is as follows:
1 - When the splashback is to be installed: d=L+Hmm, where H is the height of the visible part
of the splashback. As the splashback can be of different heights, the correct H figure can only
be obtained by measuring the actual height of the splashback to be fitted.
2 - Without splashback: d=L+650mm minimum.
Note: ensure that the wall bracket (1) is levelled. The hood can be aligned or adjusted in
height by rotating the adjustment screws (see below).
b - Mark on the wall the centres of the two keyholes of the bracket.
3 - Fixing the wall bracket No. 2:
a - Place bracket No. 2 on the wall aligning its centre at a distance of H+266mm from the rear edge
of the cooking appliance in the worktop.
b - Mark on the wall the centre of the two keyholes of the bracket.
4 - Fixing the wall bracket No. 3:
a - Put the bracket No. 3 to the wall at about 1-2mm from the ceiling or from the maximum height
required, paying attention to the correct vertical alignment.
b - Mark on the wall the centres of the two keyholes of the bracket.
5 - Fixing the wall bracket No. 4:
a - Put the wall bracket No. 4 to the wall, paying attention to the correct vertical alignment at a X
distance measured as in fig. 2. The X distance must equal the height of the U-shaped upper section
S, and can vary according to the different heights of this section.
b - Mark on the wall the centres of the two keyholes of the bracket.
6 - Pilot drill all the hole positions as marked on the wall using a 8mm drill. Fix the wall brackets
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 using the 8mm rawl plugs and screws supplied.
7 - Splashback (if available).
When the splashback B is to be fitted, the distance between the cooker hood and the cooking appliance
will be determined by the height of the splashback. The splashback is to be fitted before positioning
the canopy. If the splashback is to be fixed to the wall using both the upper and lower fixing points,
care must be taken to ensure that the splashback if fitted at the correct height before placing in
position the base cabinet and worktop.
Being a rather complicated operation, the fixing of the splashback should be carried out by a qualified
or competent person, knowing all the final dimensions of the furniture.
If the splashback is to be fixed through only the upper part, proceed as follows:
a - Put the splashback on the worktop as shown on fig. 2; then hold it against the wall ensuring that
it is correctly positioned on the worktop.
b - Mark on the wall the two hole positions which appear on the upper part of the splashback.
c - Pilot drill the hole positions using a 8mm drill and fix the splashback using the 8mm rawl plugs
and screws supplied.
d - The installer should ensure that the lower part of the splashback is adequately fixed.
