Part 1a - INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1 - GENERAL INFORMATION
This canopy hood is designed to be fixed to any rigid vertical surface, over a gas or electric hotplate
and can be used either in the extraction mode (ducted to the outside) or in the recirculation mode
(internal recycling).
Before commencing the installation, consideration should be given to the difficulties to be
found during installation and to the bulky weight of the hood. The installation work must be
undertaken by a qualified and competent person in conformity to the rules concerning the
evacuation of contaminated air. The manufacturer disclaims all liability for any damage or
injury caused as a result of not following the instructions for installation contained in the
following text.
2 - COMPONENTS
The cooker hood is made up of the following components (Fig. 1):
2.1 - No. 1 hood canopy C complete with controls, lighting and fan motor
2.2 - No. 1 telescopic chimney stack formed by:
No. 1 U-shaped upper section S
No. 1 U-shaped lower section I
2.3 - No. 1 metal plug T
2.4 - No. 1 plastic bag containing:
No. 1 wall bracket 1 to fix the canopy hood
No. 2 wall brackets 2 to fix the chimney, rawl plugs, screws, and documentation
2.5 - No. 1 splashback B (optional)
3 - SAFETY WARNINGS
3.1 - When used in the extraction mode the cooker hood ducting must not be connected to a flue
which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances supplied with energy other than electric
such as a central heating flue or water heating flue.
3.2 - Before connecting to the mains supply ensure that the mains voltage corresponds with the
voltage on the rating plate inside the hood.
3.3 - Connect the cooker hood to the mains via a double pole switch which has 3 mm clearance
between the contacts.
3.4 - The appliance must be earthed.
3.5 - When istalled, the hood must be positioned at least 65 cm above a cooking appliance.
3.6 - Never do flambé cooking under this cooker hood.
3.7 - Never leave frying pans unattended during use as overheated fats and oils may catch fire.
3.8 - Before carring out any kind of maintenance or cleaning, disconnect the hood from the mains
supply.
3.9 - If the room where the cooker hood is to be used contains a fuel burning appliance such as a
central heating boiler then this must be of the room sealed or balanced flue type. If other types
of flue or appliance are fitted ensure that there is an adequate supply of air into the room.
When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with other appliances supplied with energy other
than electric, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes
being drawn back into the room by the cooker hood.
4 - INSTALLATION
For easy installation proceed as follows:
4.1 - Fix the wall brackets
4.2 - Fix the canopy
6
4.3 - Connect the hood to the mains supply and ensure that it works properly
4.4 - Set the hood for recirculation or extraction
4.5 - Fix the telescopic metal frame
4.1 - Fixing the wall brackets (Optional)
Ref. to Fig. 2 a-b
1 - Draw a vertical line on the wall from the centre of the cooking appliance up to the ceiling, using
a marking pen. This is to ensure the correct vertical alignment of many components.
2 - Fixing the wall bracket No. 1:
a - put the bracket l to the wall, aligning its marked centre across the vertical line, ensuring that the
distance between the centres of the holes and the cooking area is as follows:
1 - when the splashback is to be installed: d=197mm+H mm, where H is the height of the visible
part of the splashback. As the splashback can be of different heights, the correct H figure can only
be obtained by measuring the actual height of the splashback to be fitted.
2 - without splashback: d=847 mm minimum.
Note: ensure that the wall bracket (l) is levelled. The hood can be aligned or adjusted in height
by rotating the adjustment screws (see below).
b - mark on the wall the centres of the two keyholes of the bracket.
3 - Fixing the wall brackets item 2
a - Place one of the two brackets (item 2 Fig. 1) 15 mm from the ceiling or from a horizontal line
drawn between the top of the adjoining wall cabinets, ensuring that the bracket is level and mark
the centres for the keyhole bracket fixing screws.
b - Place the other wall bracket (item 2 Fig. 1) on the wall at “X” distance. This measurement
should be determined by the height of the upper chimney stack and mark the centres for the keyhole
bracket fixing screws.
4 - Pilot drill all the hole positions as marked on the wall using an 8 mm drill and fix the wall brackets
1-2 using the rawl plugs and screws supplied.
5 - Splashback (optional)
When a splashback is to be fitted, the distance between the cooker hood and the cooking appliances
will be determined by the height of the splashback, item F. The splashback is to be installed before
installing the canopy. If the splashback is to be fixed to the wall using both the top and bottom
fixing holes care must be taken to ensure that the splashback is fitted at the correct height before
fixing it into position.
The fitting should be undertaken by a competent person with experience in this type of installation.
If the splashback is to be fixed through only the top fixing holes proceeds as follows:
a - Put the splashback on the worktop as illustrated in Fig. 2a; then holding it against the wall to
ensure that it is correctly positioned mark the holes for the top fixing screws on the wall.
b - Pilot drill the wall using an 8 mm drill and fix the splashback using the 8 mm rawl plugs and
screws supplied.
c - If the fixing holes in the bottom of the splashback are not to be used to secure the splashback
to the wall the installer should ensure that the bottom edge is tucked down behind the rear of the
worktop.
4.2 - Fixing the canopy hood (Fig. 3)
1 - Adjust the two screws V (on the canopy connection points) to approximately half way.
2 - Hook the rear of the canopy to the wall bracket 1, after anchoring the latter to the wall.
3 - Turn the screws V to adjust the canopy vertically and level it horizontally.
4 - Fit and lock the central fixing screw V1 (provided) to lock the canopy in place.
4.3 - Electrical connection and working test
1 - The safety measures 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 of paragrapf 3 are to be strictly observed.
2 - Once the electrical connection has been completed, check that worktop illumination, motor and
speed work properly.

4.4 - Ducting or Recirculation fitting
1 - Ducting fitting
a - The cooker hood can be ducted to the outside using either rigid or flexible fire retardant ducting
of 120 mm. The choice is left to the installer.
b - The installer should provide suitable ducting and sealing material for the installation.
The cooker hood can also be ducted to the outside through one of the rectangular openings located
in either side of the lower section of the chimney stack (Fig. 4).
c - If the hood is provided with the charcoal filters fitted, the filters should be removed (see
paragraph 3.2 part 2
2 - Recirculation fitting
a - The filtered air is returned to the room through the two side grilles on the U-shaped lower section
I, which are either formed in the metal itself.
b - Fix the metal plug T onto the bottom half-pipe I using the two screws provided (Fig. 5).
4.5 - Fitting the telescopic chimney stack (Fig. 6)
To fit the upper section item S first expand the chimney slightly to allow it to fit over the wall
brackets 2 and then secure the upper section using the 4 screws supplied.
The lower section item I of the chimney stack should be fitted between the lower bracket 2 and the
wall, paying attention to fit the lower part of the section into the recess of the canopy.
To fit the lower section I to the ducting spigot using the two remaining self tapping screws.
NOTE - The upper S and lower I sections are fixed to the wall brackets 2 through a spring and
the connection is made by pushing both sections vigorously toward the centre.

Part 2a - OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
1 - Safety warnings
It is most important that all the warnings shown in paragraph 3 of the Installation Instructions are strictly observed. Moreover, pay special attention to the following warnings during the
use and maintenance of the cooker hood:
1.1 - The grease filters and the charcoal filter should be cleaned or replaced as recommended by
the manufacturer or more frequently if the hood is used consistently over 4 hours per day.
1.2 - When using a gas hob in connection with the cooker hood never leave the burners of the hob
uncovered while the hood is in use or when the pans have been removed. Switch off the gas
before removing the pan, or for just short periods and never leave the hob unattended.
1.3 - Always ensure that the flame is kept at the correct intensity to prevent the flame from licking
round from the bottom of the pan; this will save energy and will avoid a dangerous concentration of heat.
1.4 - Always ensure that the appliance is used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions
for the removal of contaminated air and odours during cooking.
2 - OPERATION
1 - Control panel (Fig. 7)
The cooker hood can be operated as follows:
SWITCH L = controls the worktop illumination;
SWITCH M = controls the power to the motor;
SWITCH V = controls the fan speed:
Position 1 = low speed, should be selected when simmering or using only one pan; the noise level
is kept to the minimun.
Position 2 = medium speed, should be selected for normal cooking. This speed offers the best ratio
between air capacity and noise level.
Position 3 = top speed, should be selected when frying or cooking food with strong odours, even
for a long period.
