Clearance Height
The cooker hood is designed to be fi tted over a cook- ing appliance at the clearance heights stated, providing the maximum output of the appliance beneath does not exceed the maximums quoted in the Technical Speci­ cations.
If the output of the appliance below the cooker hood exceeds the maximum outputs quoted, please refer to the cooker manufacturer’s installation instructions.
A clearance height of 650mm (25 1/2 ”) is required when installed above a built-in electric hob, or 700mm when installed above a built-in gas hob.
A clearance height of 685mm (27”) is required when installed above a slot-in electric cooker, or 787mm (30 1/2 ”) when installed above a slot-in gas cooker.
When installed between adjoining wall cabinets, the wall cabinets must not overhang the hob and the distance between the underside of the cabinet and the worktop must be 450mm. If the height of the wall cabinet is less than 450mm, a gap of 50mm must be maintained either side of the hob.
This cooker hood must not be installed above a
cooking appliance with a high level grill.
The hood can be installed above these heights but for optimum performance it should be installed at the distances quoted for the appropriate heat source. This appliance can be used in either extraction mode (ducting) or recycling mode (fi ltering). The hood is supplied suitable for recirculation with the charcoal fi lters fi tted. When used in the extraction mode (ducting) the char­coal fi lters are not required and must be removed and destroyed.

Drilling the Ceiling/Support Shelf
• Use a plumb line to mark the centre of the hob on
the ceiling/support shelf.
• Place the drilling template 21 provided on the ceiling/
support shelf, making sure that the template is in the correct position by lining up the axes of the template with those of the hob.
• Mark the centres of the holes in the template.
• Drill the holes at the points marked:
• For concrete ceilings, drill for plugs appropriate to the screw size.
• For hollow brick ceilings with wall thickness of 20 mm: drill ø 10 mm (immediately insert the Dowels not provided).
• For wooden beam ceilings, drill according to the wood screws used.
• For wooden shelf, drill ø 7 mm.
• For the power supply cable feed, drill ø 10 mm.
• For the air outlet (Ducted Version), drill according to the diameter of the external air exhaust duct connection.
• Insert two screws of the following type, crossing them and leaving 4-5 mm from the ceiling:
• For concrete ceilings, use the appropriate plugs
for the screw size (not provided).
• For Cavity ceiling with inner space, with wall thi-
ckness of approx. 20 mm, Screws not provided.
• For wooden beam ceilings, use 4 wood screws
(not provided).
• For wooden shelf, use 4 screws with washers and
nuts (not provided)
Fixing the Frame

INSTALLING THE COOKER HOOD
Before tightening the screws completely it is possible to adjust the frame by turning it. Make sure that the screws do not come out of their seats in the slotted holes.
• The frame mountings must be secure to with­stand the weight of the hood and any stresses caused by the occasional side thrust applied to the device.
On completion, check that the base is stable,
even if the frame is subjected to bending.
• In all cases where the ceiling is not strong enough at the suspension point, the installer must provide strengthening using suitable plates and backing pieces anchored to the structurally sound parts.
Extraction
The cooker hood is more effective when used in the extraction mode (ducted to the outside).
Venting kits may be purchased through your retailer or DIY store, and must be ducted to an outside vent of Ø125mm (5”) or Ø150mm (6”).
For the best performance use the shortest possible duct run and the minimum number of bends. Where fl exible ducting is fi tted it should not be turned through very tight bends as this may impair the perform­ance of the hood. It is recommended a maximum length of 3 metres with one bend, to be installed, to be reduced metre for each 90o bend. If a distance is greater than 3 metres the effi ciency of the hood could be impaired.
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 fi lter must be removed.

• A Ø120-125mm collar item 9.1 is provided to fi t over the Ø120mm ducting spigot when 125mm ducting is tted.
If the room where the cooker hood is to be used
contains a fuel burning appliance such as a central heating boiler, then its fl ue must be of the room sealed or balanced fl ue type.
If other types of fl ue or appliances are fi tted sure
that there is an adequate supply of air to the room.
The cooker ducting (extraction mode) must never
be connected to central heating fl ues, radiators or water heaters etc.
Recirculation
The cooker hood is supplied specifi ed for use in the recirculation mode, with the charcoal fi lter fi tted.
In the recirculation mode contaminated air is passed through the charcoal fi lter to be purifi ed and recirculated into the kitchen through the grille outlets on either side of the chimney.
