Overview

Pre-installation

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

Important:

o Please read the entire instructions before installing the rangehood.
o Always switch power off prior to installation.
o 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.

o All electrical work must be done in accordance with local and national electrical codes as applicable.
o For safety, this product must be earthed.
o A power outlet should be within 1500mm of the power cord exit from the rangehood.
o The power socket must be accessible and enable the end user to isolate the rangehood from the power for

the purpose of internal cleaning or maintenance.

o 150mm round ducting adapter is supplied. All other ducting accessories are not supplied. All ducting must

comply with local requirements and building codes.

o If re-circulating, ensure that the side outlet grilles are not obstructed. Even a partial obstruction will

restrict the efficiency of the rangehood.

o See Ducting options next page.

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 soffit) and through the rear of the home. 150mm round ducting should be used in conjunction
with this model rangehood. Alternatively this rangehood can be operated in recirculation mode (see Recirculation
mode pg 6).

The highlighted area in the table below gives the recommended Uniduct item numbers for different
mounting and outlet options.

structural material in the run e.g. rafters.

Installation position

A Vertical height from bottom of Rangehood to Fixing Plate mounting screws

302mm.

B Set height from the hob surface to the underside face of the rangehood at 750mm for electric hob or gas

hob.

Please check that the length of your chimney assembly will reach your ceiling before securing the rangehood to
the wall.

Be advised that the chimney height is such that the optimum height for installation is 750mm above the hob.
Should you wish to have the unit lower, or you have a ceiling higher than the typical 2.4 meter (8 foot), then
please choose the desired chimney extension kit from page 8.

Minimum height from the hob surface to the underside face of the rangehood

600mm electric hob - chimney extension kit required, see page 8
650mm gas hob – chimney extension kit required, see page 8

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

C Distance between mounting screw holes on Fixing Plate

115mm.
