Pre-installation

Thank you for purchasing a quality Robinhood range hood. Robinhood has a high standard of quality control
and every range hood is tested and approved before it leaves the factory.

Important:

Please read the entire instructions before installing the rangehood.

Always switch power off prior to installation.

All electrical work must be done in accordance with local and national electrical codes as applicable.

For safety, this product must be earthed.

A power outlet should be within 1500mm of the power cord exit from the rangehood.

The socket must be accessible and enable the end user to isolate the rangehood from the power for the
purpose of internal cleaning or maintenance.

Stainless steel or powder coat is very easily damaged during installation if abraded or knocked by tools.
Protect the rangehood with the cardboard box or plastic bag during installation.

All ducting must comply with local requirements and building codes.

Suitable fixings will be required to mount this rangehood.

See Ducting options next page.

Note that Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.

The minimum distance between an electric or gas hob surface and the lowest part of the rangehood is
650mm. If the instructions for the hob specify a greater distance, this has to be taken into account.

Stainless steel is very easily damaged during installation if abraded or knocked by tools. Protect the
rangehood with the cardboard box or plastic bag during installation.

Ducting Options

The method of ducting should be carefully considered before installing the rangehood. The guide below
recommends the ducting components to use for all common ducting configurations - through the top of the home
(for the roof and eaves) and through the rear of the home. 150mm round ducting should be used in conjunction
with this model rangehood (not supplied). Alternatively this rangehood can be operated in recirculation mode.

Extra lengths and/or bends may be required, depending on the length required and whether there is any
structural material in the run e.g. rafters.

Please note that this chart is designed as a guide. Please consult Robinhood customer services if unsure.
For NZ phone [phone] or www.robinhood.co.nz. For AUS phone [phone] or www.robinhood.com.au.

Before drilling any holes check that the area behind the surface to be drilled is clear of any

electrical cables, pipes etc. The cabinet must take a weight bearing of at least 40kgs weight.

Whenever possible protect the Rangehood with a fabric sheet or similar.
When installing the rangehood, the lower edge of the unit must be a minimum of 650mm above hotplates.

Notes: If the instructions for the cooktop specify a greater distance, this has to be taken into account.
Any installation above 750mm will compromise performance.
