Wall mounting.

Remove the aluminium grease filters (perforated plates) by gently pulling down on the
handles so that the interior of the cooker hood and the keyhole slots are exposed.
The hood must be mounted directly over the cooking area. The minimum distance
between the cooking surface and the underside of the hood must be 650 mm. for
electric cookers and 750 mm. for gas burners.
Get two people to help you hold the body of the hood in position against the wall and
using a pencil, mark the two keyhole slots and the two retaining hole positions, on the
wall.
Using a masonry bit, drill a hole at the top of each marked slot and at the centre of the
retaining hole marks. Insert a rawl plug into each hole.
Using pan-head screws with a head diameter slightly smaller than the bottom opening
of the keyhole slot, insert the screws part way into the marked keyhole positions.
Leave about 5 mm of the screws proud of the wall.

Installation continued

The Hood has the ability to either circulate the filtered air back into the kitchen o

r

to exhaust the filtered air through an outside wall or chimney pipe. Decide on which
option best suits your needs and proceed with the installation accordingly

Option 1—Re- circulated air

Fit the metal Y-piece on to the main body using the self tapping screws supplied
Fit the larger of the two chimney pieces to the main body using the two self tapping
screws supplied.
Lift and hang the hood and chimney assembly onto the two keyhole mounting screws.
Fit and tighten two suitable retainer screws ensuring all the while that the hood is
level.
Using the top chimney fixing bracket as a template, mark the hole positions. Drill and
attach the fixing bracket to the wall at the marked positions. Reposition the top
chimney piece so that the side holes correspond with the holes in the fixing bracket
and secure with two self tapping screws.
