INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Please ensure that before installing the range hood, that all power is switched off.
Installation must be in accordance to the local electrical authority and codes.
This range hood must be earthed at all times for the operators’ safety.
The G.P.O. for the range hood should be positioned to enable the user to turn the power off, to enable
cleaning and any maintenance required.
The G.P.O. should be installed within 600mm from the rear of the unit.
Ensure that when installing the range hood, that it is protected from any possible damage from tools etc.
Ducting for this unit must be installed in accordance to the local authority.
Ensure that the fixings used for this range hood are suitable.
Check the area where the range hood is to be fitted, to ensure that it is structurally sound.
Before using the appliance, remove the plastic coatings protecting the stainless steel finish.

The Everdure RBES62 range hood is intended to be fitted into kitchen cabinetry. It can also be installed
directly onto a wall if required.

INSTALLATION OF THE EVERDURE RBES62 RANGE HOOD DIRECTLY TO A WALL

Ensure that the wall is structurally sound, and is capable of carrying the weight of the range hood.
The range hood can be placed at a minimum of 600mm away from an electric cooktop, or 650mm minimum
from a gas cooktop.
Measure the distance between the two fixing holes on the back of the unit. Due to manufacturing
processes, there mat be slight variations on each range hood produced.
Mark the distance on the wall in the desired location, at the correct distance above the cooktop.
For timber framed houses, the range hood should be attached to a wall stud. Drill holes of a suitable size to
fix the screws into, which will take the weight of the range hood. Using a screwdriver, attach the screws to
the studs in the pre drilled holes, leaving an adequate amount for the range hood to rest on. Locate the
range hood onto the screws, via the mounting holes in the back of the unit.
For masonry walls, mark the position of the holes on the wall, and drill holes of a suitable size, to accept the
size of masonry anchor to be used. Alternatively, a wall plug of a suitable size may be fitted. Fit the
masonry anchor (if being used) into the hole, or if using wall plugs, attach a screw into the plug. Allow an
adequate amount of the screw or anchor out for the range hood to be fitted onto. Locate the range hood
onto the anchor or the screw, via the mounting holes in the back of the unit. Fit the right angled brackets
onto either side of the unit. Mark the position required onto the wall to fit the brackets. Drill the holes in the
wall, to accept either a screw or wall plug, depending on the wall structure. Attach screws through the
brackets and into the hole or wall plug drilled previously.

Fit the one way valve onto the range hood, ready for the ducting to be installed.

INSTALLATION OF THE EVERDURE RBES62 RANGE HOOD TO A CABINET

The diagram below shows the distance required between the holes in the top of the range hood. Due to
manufacturing procedures, it is recommended that the dimension be checked on the range hood before
installing.
Drill the 6 x 4mm diameter holes into the bottom of the cupboard (ducted installation only).
Fit the one way valve onto the range hood, ready for installation of the ducting.
Install the range hood to the bottom of the cupboard using the screws supplied with the range hood. The
holes in the range hood are already threaded. Fully tighten the screws. Install the flashing plate supplied
with the range hood, to the back of the range hood and underneath of the cupboard. This is used to hide
any gaps that may exist after fitting the range hood.

See diagram below for any clarification required.

If your range hood does not function correctly when attempting any of the above, please ensure that your
power is on and functioning correctly. If the power seems to be functioning correctly in the house, there may
be a problem with the range hood. Please call your authorized service agent in this case to organise a
service call or replacement unit.

CLEANING

SAFETY PRECAUTION
Before cleaning your range hood or performing any maintenance, please ensure that the range hood is
turned off at the power point.

Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean the range hood. The use of warm soapy water and a cloth are
recommended.
Ensure that the range hood is cleaned regularly, as a build up of grease and fat may occur otherwise.
The filters on the range hood must be cleaned regularly to maintain efficiency, and prevent grease build up.
It is recommended that this is undertaken every 4 – 6 weeks, depending on frequency of use.
The filters can be cleaned with warm soapy water or a cloth, or they may be washed in a dishwasher. If
washed in a dishwasher, discolouration may occur to the mesh and frame.
Cleaning of the range hood must be performed as described above, otherwise there is a possibility of a fire
hazard due to grease and fat build up.
If the range hood is fitted with charcoal filters (for re-circulating) it is recommended that the filters be
changed every 3 – 4 months. Filter replacement will ensure correct function of the range hood, and ensure
that the air being re-circulated back into the room is clean.
