Electrical connection
YOUR COOKER HOOD IS INTENDED FOR FITTED AND
PERMANENT INSTALLATION.
o The cooker hood’s power cable must be fitted upstream from the
electrical connection, using an omni-polar switch with a contact
distance of at least 3 mm. THE FUSE MUST BE RATED AT 3
AMPS.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. It
should only be connected by a competent person, using
fixed wiring via a double pole switched fused spur outlet.
(UK ONLY).
We recommend that the appliance is connected by a qualified
electrician, who is a member of the N.I.C.E.I.C. and who will comply
with the I.E.E. and local regulations. The wires in the mains lead are
coloured in accordance with the following UK code:
Blue = Neutral, Brown = Live, Green/Yellow = Ground
If you only find two wires in the main’s lead (blue and brown),
then neither must be connected to the earth terminal.
17
Page 18
o As the colours of the wires in the appliance’s mains lead may not
correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals
in your spur box, please proceed as follows:
o The blue wire must be connected to the
terminal marked “N” (neutral), or coloured
black.
o The brown wire must be connected to the
terminal marked “L” (live), or coloured red.
Before beginning installation
o 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

Completing the installation
If you are setting the appliance to recirculation mode, then you should
now fit the two carbon filters. See the “Fitting the carbon filters”
section on page 16.
The electrical connection must correspond to the electrical requirement
noted on the rating plate, which is placed inside the cooker hood. The
appliance should now be connected to the electrical supply. See page
17 - 18 for detailed information on the electrical connection.
Use a stainless steel cleaner on the stainless steel sections of the
appliance.
Refit the grease filter(s) and then switch on the mains
supply to the appliance. Set the time of day and then
check that the appliance is operating correctly by selecting
each speed and switching the light bulbs on and off.
Extraction mode or recirculation mode?
What is the difference between extraction and recirculation
modes?
o To get optimum performance from your cooker, the air will be
taken out of the room via external ducting.
o 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.
o In recirculation mode stale air is taken via the grease filter, and
passed through a charcoal filter for purification. The air then reenters the kitchen via an opening in the hood.
What is a charcoal filter and do I need one?
o All cooker hoods have grease filters but if you are using your
cooker hood in recirculation mode, then charcoal filters must be
fitted in addition to the grease filters.
