IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Your safety is of the utmost importance to Baumatic.
Please make sure that you read this instruction booklet
before attempting to install or use the appliance. If
you are unsure of any of information contained in this
booklet, please contact the Baumatic Technical
Department.
IMPORTANT: Any installation work must be
carried out by a qualified electrician or
competent person.
o The hood must be installed in accordance with the installation
instructions and all measurements followed.
o If the cooker hood is installed for use above a gas appliance then
the provision for ventilation must be in accordance with the Gas
Safety Codes of Practice BS.6172, BS.5440 & BS.6891 (Natural
Gas) and BS.5482 (LP Gas) 1994, the Gas Safety (Installation &
Use) Regulations, the Building Regulations issued by the
Department of the Environment, the Building Standards
(Scotland) (Consolidated) Regulations issued by the Scottish
Development Department.
o It is dangerous to alter the specifications or to modify this
product in any way. Do not tamper with it or attempt to modify
the appliance in any way.
o When installing the hood, ensure that the following
recommended distances are being observed between the cooker
top and the bottom of the cooker hood:
¾ Electric cookers: 700 mm
¾ Gas cookers: 700 mm
¾ Coal/ oil cookers: 800 mm
IMPORTANT:
THAN 700mm ABOVE YOUR COOKER.
o When installed between adjoining wall cabinets, the cabinets
must not overhang the hob.
DO NOT SET YOUR COOKER HOOD LESS
5
Page 6
o The edges of the cooker hood are sharp – be mindful of this as
you handle your appliance, especially during installation and
cleaning. DO NOT CLEAN IN BEHIND THE GREASE FILTERS!
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 failure to
observe fire safety advice in these instructions.
6
Page 7
o Remember that when in extraction mode, your cooker hood is
removing air from your room. Ensure that proper ventilation
measures are being observed. Note that it removes odours
from your room, not steam.
o Warning - Always ensure that the cooker
hood has been disconnected from the
power supply before carrying out any work
on the hood, including replacing light bulbs.
o Do not connect the ducting system of this appliance to any
existing ventilation system which is being used for any other
purpose.
o Do not install above a cooker with a high level grill.
o Never leave frying pans unattended during use
as overheated fats and oils might catch fire.
o Do not leave naked flames under the cooker hood.
o Do not attempt to use the cooker hood if it is damaged in any
way. Never attempt to use it without the grease filters fitted or
if the filters are excessively greasy!
o Never flambé cook under this cooker hood.
THE MANUFACTURER DECLINES ALL
RESPONSIBILITY IN THE EVENT OF FAILURE TO
OBSERVE THE INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN HERE, FOR
INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE AND SUITABLE
USE OF THE HOOD.

Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the
chosen installation area. In addition check whether there is an
electrical socket available that will be accessible once the hood is
mounted.
If the product is going to be used in extraction mode,
then there should also be space to connect a ducting hose to the
outside.
o Carry out all necessary masonry work prior to the fitting of the
cooker hood.
o Ensure that all electrical connections are carried out by a suitably
qualified person.
o Before commencing installation of the cooker hood the grease
filter should be removed.
o
Check inside the product and insure that there is no transit

ging or any other materials, such as packets of screws,
guarantees etc. These should be removed and kept for future
use.
o
If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slot-in cookers
from their position, to provide easier access to the rear wall and
ceiling. If this is not possible, then a thick, protective cov

7) Connect the coupling to the top of the cooker hood, and then
connect a 150 cm ducting hose to the coupling (please note that the
ducting hose is not supplied with the appliance).
8) The other end of the ducting hose should be connected to your
discharge outlet that is suitable for cooking vapours. It should have a
cross section of at least 150 cm².
o The maximum distance between the coupling and your discharge
outlet should be 3 metres, with one 90 degree bend.

9) Lift the chimney section upwards until it reaches the ceiling. You
must ensure that it is perpendicular to the hood.
o On the wall mark the side measurements of both sides of the
chimney section with a pencil and then remove the chimney
section.
10) Take the fixing bracket and place it between the two pencil marks
that you made in step 9.
o Keeping the bracket in contact with the wall, use a pencil to
mark on the wall the anchoring holes that are cut out of the
bracket

11b) Insert raw plugs into the holes.
11c) Use a screwdriver to secure the fixing bracket to the wall.
o Refit the chimney section to the hood and then fix it onto the
hood using the two screws that are supplied.
o Secure the top of the chimney section to the fixing bracket,
using the screws provided.
12) Lift the chimney section up to the ceiling and secure it to the
fixing bracket using the screws provided.

Electrical connection
The electrical connection must correspond to the electrical requirement
noted on the rating plate, which is placed inside the cooker hood. The
appliance should be connected to the electrical supply. See page 15 –
16 for detailed information on the electrical connection.
Extraction mode or recirculation mode?
What is the difference between extraction and recirculation
modes?
To get optimum performance from your cooker, the air will be taken
out of the room via external ducting.
Unfortunately if you live in a flat or the hood is too far from an outside
wall, this may not be possible. The only alternative is to recirculate the
air.
In recirculation mode stale air is taken via the grease filter, and passed
through a charcoal filter for purification. The air then re-enters the
kitchen via an opening in the hood.
What is a charcoal filter and do I need one?
All cooker hoods have a grease filter but if you are using your cooker
hood in recirculation mode, then a charcoal filter must be fitted in
addition to the grease filter.

Troubleshooting
IMPORTANT: If your cooker hood appears not to be operating
properly, before contacting the Baumatic Service Department,
please refer to the checklist below.
My cooker hood will not start.
o Check that the hood is connected to the electricity supply
o Check that the fan speed control is set correctly.
My cooker hood is not working effectively.
o The fan speed is not set high enough
o The grease filter is dirty and requires cleaning.
o The kitchen is not well ventilated enough.
o If the hood is set up for recirculation mode, check that the
carbon filters do not need replacing.
o If the hood is set up for extraction mode, check that the ducting
hose and discharge outlet are not blocked.
My cooker hood has switched off during operation.
o The safety cut-out device has been tripped.
o Turn off the hob and then wait for the safety cut-out device to
reset.
o IMPORTANT: If you have installed your cooker hood too low,
the safety cut-out device will frequently trip. Your cooker hood
may become damaged if the safety cut-out device is tripped
frequently.
DO NOT MAKE ANY ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THE APPLIANCE
YOURSELF. IF THE APPLIANCE IS STILL NOT OPERATING
CORRECTLY, PLEASE CONTACT THE BAUMATIC SERVICE
DEPARTMENT ON TELEPHONE NUMBER (0118) 933 6911.
