the manufacturer or its service agent or similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard.

SAFETY WARNINGS – FOR THE INSTALLER

When installing the cooker hood, make sure you adhere to
the minimum and maximum distances from the cooker hood
base to the hob surface (refer to page 6).
Exhaust flue installation: The following rules must be
strictly followed to obtain optimal air extraction.

• Keep exhaust ue short and straight

• Do not reduce the size or restrict exhaust ue.

• Keep bends in the exhaust ue to a minimum.

• When using exible ue always install duct with helix

pulled taut to minimise pressure loss.

• Failure to observe these basic instructions will drastically

reduce the performance and increase the noise levels of

PRE-INSTALLATION

Before installing the cooker hood, peel off any protective
plastic covering and remove polystyrene from inside behind
the fan motor. See diagram below.

LOCATION

The underside of the hood body must be a minimum
of 600mm* above an electric cooktop and 650mm*
above a gas cooktop and a maximum height of 800mm.

*If the instructions of the hob specify a greater distance than the minimum above,
then that shall be the minimum height for installation.

INSTALLATION

1. Using a spirit level mark a vertical centre line on the
wall where the hood is to be positioned, and a
horizontal line at the hood base position (refer
Fig. 6 below).

2. Mark the location for flue cover wall mounting brackets
and rangehood mounting points and anti-tilt fixing
points above the hood base using the hood base as
the reference point (Fig. 6 below).

3. Install flue cover wall mounting brackets with suitable
fixings. Install suitable screws for rangehood mounting
points (to support a total weight of 30kg) to the wall as
marked (Fig. 7).

INSTALLATION

4. Remove the protective plastic film from the hood body
and hang hood on the mounting screws then secure at
the anti-tilt locations as indicated in Fig. 6 & 7.

5. Fix exhaust transition duct using screws supplied
(Fig. 8).

Depending on the preferred installation/ducting mode,
follow step 6a or 6b below.

6a.Recirculating mode (Fig. 9). Using the centre line,

secure the recirculating T-piece to the wall with suitable

screws/fixings (optional kit AR910RK). Install flexible

pipe between T-piece and the exhaust transition duct.
Use cable ties or suitable duct tape to secure flexible
pipe to T-piece and transition duct (Fig. 11).

NOTE: When installed in recirculating mode, it is
recommended to use a carbon filter (included in
recirculation kit AR910RK) to prevent odours being
emitted back into the room.

6b.Ducted mode (Fig 10.) The canopy rangehood has

been supplied with flexible flue pipe and duct transition
piece, alternatively a 150mm diameter non-combustible
flue pipe can be used. Continue the centre line to the
ceiling. Fit preferred flue pipe to the fan transition duct.
Use cable ties or suitable duct tape to secure flexible
pipe to the transition duct.

NOTE: For ducted mode, extend the flue pipe through
the roof to external ‘china hat’ to vent exhaust externally.
Do not vent into the ceiling cavity.

NOTE: To ensure optimum performance of the
rangehood, the use of rigid ducting is recommended.
The use of bends should be avoided. Rigid flexible
ducting is suitable, although loose flexible ducting is
unacceptable. All ducting must be fire retardant.

CAUTION

Care must be taken to ensure the screws are not cross threaded when
attaching the upper flue cover.

If installed in recirculating mode, insert the optional carbon

filter (included in recirculation kit AR910RK).

To complete the rangehood installation, insert the three
filters to the underside of the hood body. Place back edge
of filter into position and push up front edge so that the
filter clips into place.

Your Westinghouse rangehood is now ready to use.

INSTALLATION

7. Electrical connection

Check that the installation complies with the standards
of local building, gas and electrical authorities. Before
connecting to the mains supply ensure that the mains
voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate
inside the rangehood.

Installation of telescopic flue covers

Separate the inner and outer flue covers, and carefully
remove the protective coating from both. Carefully
reassemble the upper and lower flue covers sections by
sliding the inner into the outer flue cover. Carefully lower
the assembled upper and lower flue covers onto the top
of the rangehood body, and insert the flue cover into the
rangehood body approximately 5mm. Fix upper flue cover
to the wall mounting bracket with screws supplied. Ensure
that the upper section is extended.

CONTROL PANEL

• Best results are obtained by using a low speed for

normal conditions and a high speed when odours are
more concentrated.

• Turn the hood on for a few minutes before you

start cooking.

• The hood should be left on for 15 minutes after cooking

or until all odours have dispersed.

• The control switches are located on the front panel of the

unit. See Fig. 12 below.

Fig. 12

• The control panel comprises of:

– T: Indicator lamp
– U: Light button
– V: Off button
– W: 3 control switches for the motor

(speed positions 1, 2, and 3)

CARE & MAINTENENCE

CAUTION

External surfaces are susceptible to scratches and abrasions, so
please follow the cleaning instructions to ensure the best possible
result is achieved without damage.

Cleaning the hood

• Clean the outside of the hood using a damp cloth and

a solution of water and mild washing up liquid. Clean
stainless steel surfaces using non-abrasive cleaning
products that are specifically for use on stainless steel.
To ensure best results also use an even pressure and
follow the grain of the stainless steel. Use of a soft cloth
reduces the risk of scratching. If the cloth is wet ensure
that a dry soft cloth is used to wipe down the surface
again reducing the risk of any surface rust appearing.

• Never use corrosive, abraisive or flammable cleaning

products or products containing bleach.

• Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s

protective grid.

• Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grill using a

damp cloth and mild washing up liquid.

• It is extremely important to clean the unit and change the

filters at the recommended intervals. Failure to do so will
cause grease deposits that could cause a fire.

Removing the metal grease filters

• Push the grease filter towards the back of the unit and

then pull it down and out.

Hand washing

Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with a
grease-loosening cleaner, then rinse off thoroughly with hot
water. Repeat the process if necessary. Refit the grease filters
when they are dry.

Dishwasher

Place grease filters in the dishwasher. Select the most
powerful washing program and highest temperature, at
least 65°C. Repeat the process. Refit the grease filters when
they are dry. When washing the metal grease filter in the
dishwasher a slight discolouration of the filter can occur, this
does not have any impact on it’s performance.

NOTE: The metal grease filters must be removed and washed,
either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks.

• Clean the inner housing using a hand hot solution only

(never use caustic detergents, abrasive powders or brushes).

Charcoal filter

• The charcoal filter should only be used if you want to use

the hood in the recirculation function.

• This filter cannot be cleaned or re-used and as a general

rule, the activated charcoal filter should be changed once
every four months.

Fitting the charcoal filter

Fit one charcoal filter on the left and one on the right so as
to cover the plastic grids that protect the fan wheel.

• Always specify the hood model code number and

serial number when ordering replacement filters. This
information is shown on the registration plate located on
the inside of this unit.

• Replacement charcoal filters can be ordered from your

local Service Centre.

CARE & MAINTENENCE

WARNING

IMPORTANT: The hood must always be disconnected from the
electricity supply before beginning any maintenenace work.

Changing the halogen lamps

If halogen lamps need replacing, they must be replaced by
lamps with an aluminium reflector, never dichronic lamps to
avoid unnecessary overheating in the lamp holders.

Ensure that the appliance is switched off before carrying
out maintenance to avoid any possibility of electric shock.

CAUTION

When handling lamps hold with a cloth or gloves to ensure perspiration
does not come into contact with the lamp as this can reduce the life of
the lamp.
