FUMES DISCHARGE (SIENA F3SN60S1, F3SN90S1 and F3SND90S1 ONLY)

In this version the fumes and vapours are discharged outside through the exhaust pipe.

To this end, the hood outlet fitting must be connected via a pipe, to an external output.

The outlet pipe must have:

•A diameter not less than that of the hood fitting.

•A slight slope downwards (drop) in the horizontal sections to prevent condensation from flowing back into the motor.

•The minimum required number of bends.

•The minimum required length to avoid vibrations and reduce the suction performance of the hood.

DUCTING & EXTRACTION LEVELS - (REMOTE MOTORS ONLY)

The Flexi ducting is designed to ensure optimum performance for your rangehood.

Please follow the installation instructions carefully.

Every FALMEC rangehood must be ducted to the external or in-roof motor unit by the use of non-flammable ducting. The rangehood must not be ducted into a wall cavity or a ceiling space where a build-up of grease can occur and become a potential fire risk. Ensure the external outlet on the motor unit unit is not covered and the air flow is not restricted in any way as this may result in reduced performance.

The duct must at all times have a cross sectional surface area equivalent to the hood outlet. The hood outlet has a circular cross section of 200 mm in diameter or an approximate area of 31,400 mm². Do not reduce the duct size at any time and avoid sharp bends. If the duct run is longer than five (5) metres, it may be necessary to enlarge the duct size to ensure optimum performance. The manufacturer does not guarantee performance when the duct length is greater than five (5) metres.

THE RECOMMENDED DUCT LENGTH (INSTALLATION DISTANCE) IS 4 METERS.

THE MINIMUM INSTALLATION DISTANCE IS 3 METERS.

GENTLE BENDS IN THE DUCTING ARE RECOMMENDED AS IT ASSISTS IN MUFFLING NOISE FROM THE

EXTERNAL FAN UNIT.

Inside the hood locate the four fixing screws holding the motor and fixing plate to the top of the rangehood chasis. Remove the screws and rotate the motor 90° backwards and push motor flange through exposed hole in back of the chassis.

STEP 3:

Re-secure the motor and fixing plate to the back of the chassis with the 4 screws removed in step 2. Finally secure the external face plate removed in step 1 to the top of the rangehood and secure with at the two fixing points with the screws provided.

HOOD INSTALLATION

STEP 1:

To install into your overhead cupboard, several holes may need to be cut into shelves to enable the ducting to exit the cavity. Ensure the hood is mounted as close to the centre of the cooking surface as possible.

NOTE:

The height of the underside of the hood body must be a minimum of 600 mm above an electric cooktop & 650 mm above a gas cooktop and a maximum height of 1200 mm. If the instructions of the hob specify a greater distance than the minimum detailed, this shall be the minimum height for installation. Building codes that stipulate a minimum dimension may vary from state to state, please check with your local council prior to installation.

STEP 2:

If a shelf is fitted within the cupboard cut out a central 155mm hole in the shelf for ducting, matching the holes position to that of the outlet on top of the hood. Additional holes might need to be cut to feed the duct out to the roof cavity.

STEP 3:

Remove the screws from within the main body of the rangehood along the back above the grease trap, on the left and right side . Once the screws are removed, the main body of the rangehood will separate away from stainless steel fascia.

PART 1: HOOD INSTALLATION GUIDE - INTEGRATED HOODS - ON BOARD MOTOR

STEP 4:

The returns on the main body are now exposed. These are used to fix the main body on to the cabinetry. Place the hood in the cabinet in the level position ensuring that the controls and display will be visible when standing in front of the unit.

Using the pre-drilled mounting holes, screw the hood into position.

STEP 5:

Once the main body is secure into the cabinetry the stainless steel fascia can then be slid inside the main body.

The fascia will cover the screws that have fixed the main body into the cabinetry. Place the screws back into place which were removed in step 3.

STEP 6:

Connect the hood outlet (in the top or back ducted position) to 150 mm ducting leading to an external output.

STEP 7:

Attach the male plug of the rangehood unit to the main power supply.

Note to electricians: Standard 10 amp general power outlet (GPO) required.

Position GPO as close to the hood unit as possible.

GREASE TRAP AND BAFFLE FILTERS:

The integrated range of hoods utilize a removable grease trap that is used to catch excess amounts of grease and condensate from the baffle filters. This trap can be removed for cleaning. The trap consists of a concave channel with fixing points in the channel of the trap. The baffle filters will then sit within the channel, with the filter vanes running downward.
