Venting Outdoors
The rangehood has an upper air duct B
for external fumes exit.
Apply the flange C supplied.
Check that the filter/suction selector
(inside the rangehood) G is in the
suction (A) position.
Recirculating method - In the case
where it is not possible to discharge the
cooking fumes externally, the rangehood
may be used in the filter version by
fixing a carbon filter. The fumes and
vapours are recycled via the anterior grill
placed above the control panel. Check
that the filter/suction selector (inside
the rangehood) G is in the filter (F)
position.
Installation – Do not tile, grout or silicone
this appliance to the wall. Surface
mounting only. Do not fix chimney flue to
furniture or flyover shelves unless the
chimney flue can be easily removed in
case maintenance is ever required. The
rangehood must be placed at a minimum
distance of 650mm from either gas,
electric or combination cooktops. Please
check this measurement with your local
gas, electrical and building authority. The
rangehood maybe installed on the wall or
on the base of a cabinet; if supplied use
the hole gauge H to drill the correct
distance, or lean the cooker hood on the
wall or on the base of the cabinet and
mark the holes with a pencil.
Wall mounting – Insert the wall screw
anchors J in the drilled holes and the two
K screws in the upper drill holes. Remove
the grill and hook the rangehood to the 2
screws, finally from the inside, insert the
third screw L and lock them all in.
Cabinet fixing – Affix the rangehood with
the 4 M screws from inside the cabinet.
Electrical connection – The electrical
tension must correspond to the tension
noted on the label placed inside the
rangehood. Connect the electrical plug,
where provided to an easily accessible
outlet in conformity with local standards in
force. Where an electrical plug is not
provided (for direct connection to
electrical network) place a standards
approved bipolar switch with an aperture
distance of not less than 3mm
(accessible) from the contacts.
Operation – The control panel is situated
on the front of the rangehood and
equipped with 3 fan speeds. Use the
highest speed 3 for situations of high
level vapour concentration in cooking. It is
advisable to switch on the fan at least 5
minutes prior to cooking and leave it in
operation for approximately 15 minutes
after cooking has terminated.
The slide control light switch is located
above the fan control. Slide across to
switch on.

P backwards and slide the lter
downwards.

soapy water, or, if possible, in the
dishwasher (60°C). Let dry before
reinstalling it.

discolour after washing in a dishwasher.
This will not however aect the
performance of the grease lter.
Remount the lter after it has dried
thoroughly.
Carbon Filter - The use of a charcoal
lter is necessary when the rangehood
cannot be vented outdoors either
because ducting is not available or
cannot be installed. The charcoal lter
serves to eliminate odours that form
during the cooking process. Under normal
use conditions, the lter should be
replaced every 4 months. For
replacement charcoal lters please
contact your nearest Kleenmaid Store on
131308. The charcoal lter must never be

cleaning the appliance and changing and
cleaning the lters may cause res.

channel used for fumes discharged by
appliances powered by other than
electricity. The environment must always
be adequately aerated when the
rangehood and other appliance powered
by other than electricity are used at the
same time. Flambe cooking with a
rangehood is prohibited. The use of a free
ame is damaging to the lters and may
cause re accidents. Therefore free ame
cooking must be avoided. Frying of foods
must be kept under close control in order
to avoid overheated oil catching re.

by local laws for safety and technical
restrictions.
