Installing the Cooker Hood
Removing and Fitting the Visor
When installing or cleaning the it will be necessary to remove
the visor, inlet grille
To remove the visor from the cooker hood:
• Pull the visor open into the working position while pressing
down on the visor release catch located on the left-hand
side of the casing as illustrated.
• Pull the bottom edge of the visor away from the casing to disengage it from the guides inside the casing as
indicated.
• Once the bottom edges are free the visor can be hinged
upwards to release the visor from the guides inside the
top of the casing.
To fit the visor onto the cooker hood:
• Insert the top visor tracks into the guides in the front
of the casing.
• Hinge down the bottom edges of the visor and insert the
lower tracks into the guides in the front of the casing.
• Push the visor inwards until an audible clicking sound is
heard.
• The visor can now be opened and closed normally.
When the visor is fitted with a decor panel
it may be necessary to adjust the amount of
friction on the lower guides due to the extra
weight of the panel.
To adjust the visor friction clamp:
• Insert a small flat blade electrical screwdriver into the hole
marked with the letter ‘V’ on both sides of the casing as
illustrated.
• Turn the screw clockwise to apply more pressure and
anti-clockwise to reduce the amount of pressure.
Ensure to adjust the screw on both sides of the hood by the
same amount to ensure the smooth operation of the visor.

Fitting the Wall Brackets
The cooker hood may be be fitted to any vertical surface.
All the fittings required for installation are contained in a
polythene bag inside the carton.
IMPORTANT: Before installation check that the
wall to which the cooker hood is to be fitted for
electric cables, water pipes and gas.
• If it is necessary to fix the cooker hood to a hollow
construction plaster or patition board structure then it
must be sufficiently reinforced to be quite rigid in the
area for the cooker hood mounting brackets.
• The cooker hood must be fitted using the special brackets
supplied or it will not be possible to adjust the alignment
and depth of the cooker hood once it has been fixed.
Use the paper template provided to mark the hole positions
on the wall for the mounting bracket fixing screws. Check the
hole distances are correct with a tape measure as stated on
the template.
IMPORTANT: At this stage allow 25 mm clear
space above the cooker hood (if it is to be fitted
under a wall cabinet or similar) to enable it to be
hooked on and off the brackets for subsequent
removal for decorating or service.
• When drilling the holes for the wall fixing brackets care
must be taken to ensure that they are quite level as there
is minimal height adjustment of the fixing brackets. The
brackets should be fitted with the round end at the bottom using the plastic rawl plugs and screws provided.
• If the brackets are to be fitted to a hollow plaster or
partition board structure then the plastic rawl plugs provided must not be used. (Special rawl plugs are available
for hollow plaster or partition board walls).
• Once the brackets are secured lift the hood squarely to
the wall slightly higher than the brackets and lower the
cooker hood until the cooker hood locates onto the two
brackets.
Ensure that the cooker hood is correctly located
before letting go.

Fitting the Decor Panel
The dimensions of the decor panel to be fitted should be (W)
59.6 cm x (H) 45 cm.
To fit the decor panel onto the cooker hood:
• Remove the visor from the cooker hood.
• Place the decor panel face down.
• Ensure the template is aligned with the top edge of the
decor panel.
• Using the template mark the hole positions for the fixing
screws on the reverse side of the decor panel.
• Place the visor face down on the reverse side of the
decor panel and align the top edge of the visor with the
decor panel to check the screw holes aligh correctly.
• Pilot drill the holes and secure using the 8 No Ø3.9 x
13 mm countersunk flat headed screws supplied.
Should a decor panel be fitted with a height
exceeding 45 cm, failure to align the top edge
of the template with the top edge of the visor
will prevent the visor from opening correctly
when installed.
Adusting the Hanging Brackets
The cooker hood can be adjusted in depth from 27 to 36 cm,
which makes the cooker hood suitable for installation with
most makes of UK and European kitchen cabinets.
To adust the depth of the cooker hood:
• Loosen the screws (C) at the front of each extension
arm as illustrated.
• When the screws are loose align the front of the hood
with the front of the adjoining wall cabinet.
• Turn the screws (B) at the rear of each bracket (clockwise
to lower the hood or anti-clockwise to raise the hood)
to ensure perfect alignment with the wall cabinet as illustrated.
• Once the hood has been adjusted tighten the screws
(C).
Securing the Cooker Hood
• The hood should be secured on each side to the adjoining
wall cabinet’s as illustrated.
• Insert the 8 No Ø3.5 x 16 mm round headed screws
provided through the holes located in each side of the
cooker hood casing visible when the visor and grille have
been removed.
Adjusting the Wall Spacer
• After securing the cooker hood to the adjoining wall
cabinets adjust the lower spacer panel on the underside at
the rear toclose off the gap to the wall as illustrated.

Extraction (Ducted)
The cooker hood is more effective when installed in the
extraction mode (ducted to the outside).
Venting kits may be purchased through your retailer or
DIY store, and must be evacuated through an outside
vent of ø120 (5ins).
The ducting used must be manufactured from fire
retardent material conforming to the relevant British
Standard or DIN 4102-B1.
When the cooker hood is ducted to the outside
the charcoal filter must be removed.
Fitting the Ducting
• T
he Ø120 mm ducting spigot must be fitted into the
apperture on top of the cooker hood and sealed
to make an air tight connection.
• For the best performance use the shortest possible run
of ducting and we recommend the use of rigid pipe in
preference to flexible hose as this will improve the flow
of air while reducing turbulence, which causes noise and
a loss of performance.
• 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 be of the room sealed or balanced
flue type.
• If other types of flue or appliances are fitted ensure that
there is an adequate supply of air to the room.
• The cooker ducting when fitted in the extraction mode
must never be connected to central heating flues, radiators
or water heaters.
Recirculation Mode
The charcoal filter must be fitted for recirculation and the
slide control must be in the recirculation position.

Electrical Requirements
Any permanent electrical installation must comply with
the latest I.E.E. Regulations and local Electricity Board
regulations. For your own safety this should be undertaken by a qualified electrician e.g. your local Electricity
Board, or a contractor who is on the roll of the National
Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting
(NICEIC).
Electrical Connection
Before connecting to the mains supply ensure that the
mains voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating
plate inside the cooker hood.
Remove the grease filters (see paragraph Maintenance)
being sure that the connector of the feeding cable is
correctly inserted in the socket placed on the side of
the fan.
This appliance is fitted with a 2 core mains cable and
must be permanently connected to the electricity supply
via a double-pole switch having 3mm minimum contact
gap on each pole. A Switched Fuse Connection Unit to
BS1363 Part 4, fitted with a 3 Amp fuse, is a recommended mains supply connection accessory to ensure
compliance with the Safety Requirements applicable to
fixed wiring instructions.
This appliance conforms to BS 800: 1988 and EEC Directive No. 78 308 regarding suppression of radio and
television interference.

Using the cooker hood
This cooker hood is designed to evacuate unpleasant
odours from the kitchen, it will not extract steam.
Cooker Hood Controls
The cooker hood functions are controlled by three slide
switches and an automatic microswitch located on the right
behind the visor as illustrated.
(I) The automatic microswitch is activated by the black
button, which overrides the controls when the visor is
closed switching OFF the power.
When the visor is opened again the cooker hood will
resume to function at its previous setting.
(M) The switch marked with the fan symbol and number
0-1 controls the fan.
(Y) The switch numbered 1-2-3 controls the fan speeds.
Position 1 should be selected when simmering or
when using one pan.
Position 2 should be selected for normal cooking
with up to four pans.
Position 3 should be selected when frying or cooking
foods with a strong odour.
(L) The switch marked with the lamp symbol and numbered
0-1 controls the worktop illumination.
To Operate
Select the required fan speed and light if required.
Recirculation
In the recirculation mode the contaminated air enters
the cooker hood through the grease filters. The air is
cleaned by passing through the charcoal filters before
being passed back into the kitchen through the grilles in
either side of the chimney stack.
Extraction
In the extraction mode the contaminated air enters the
cooker hood passing through the grease filters and is
passed out through the ducting into the atmosphere.
To obtain the best performance when cooking it is advisable to switch the cooker hood on for a few minutes
before you start cooking and leave it running for about
15 minutes after finishing.
When used in the ducting mode the charcoal
filters are not required.
Never do flambé cooking under this cooker
hood.
Never leave frying pans unattended during
use, as over-heated fats and oils can catch fire.
Do not leave naked flames under the cooker
hood.
Ensure heating areas on your hob are covered
with pots and pans when using the hob and
cooker hood simultaneously.
