CAUTION

BEFORE YOU INSTALL – please read

Sirius warranty covers only Sirius product. If you choose to install a non-Sirius branded accessory

such as flexible ducting, Sirius will only warrant the hood and motor. If installation is found to be the

cause of failure or issue then charges will apply for service and parts.

Flexible ducting is not permitted under any circumstances. Flexible ducting has been found to

increase noise levels, increase vibration and reduce airflow.

Sirius Semi-rigid or solid ducting can be used in lieu.

There is a range available to suit any application.

WARNING

The appliance must be installed and

connected to the power supply only by a

qualified technician.

• There shall be adequate ventilation of the room when the range hood is used at the same time as
appliancess burning gas or other fuels (not applicable to appliances that only discharge the air back into
the room)

• The details concerning the method and frequency of cleaning

• There is a fire risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions;

• Do not flambé under the range hood;

• CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.

functioning properly.

(NOTE: The motor plug is fitted with a dummy plug - with the exception of SEM1 motor - to protect
the connection from dust. Ensure the red dummy plug is removed and replaced with the two
pin motor plug from the power transformer box. Failure to do so will result in only two speeds
operating).

Lighting connection

Remove all plugs and proceed with installation if both unit and motor are fully operational.

CAUTION

Installation must comply with the regulations in force regarding the ventilation of enclosed environments.

In particular, discharged air must not be conveyed into a duct used for fumes discharge or discharge from

appliances using gas or other combustible materials. Air cannot be ducted into roof space.
The use of discontinued ducts is not allowed without the approval of a qualified technician.

WARNING

Before proceeding with the installation of the ceiling cassette, please thoroughly inspect the entire unit
(including the motor) for any damages, including all of the electrical connections. If any damage is found,cease
installation and report it immediately to the retail partner that the cassette was purchased from.

NOTE

• Only use Sirius Ducting with a maximum length of 7 metres & minimum of 2 metres from the outlet collar
on the cassette to the motor location.

• Limit the number of elbows in the ducting, since each 90 degree bend reduces the air capacity by 1 lineal
metre (e.g. if there are 2 x 90 degree bends, the maximum duct length should not exceed 5 metres.)

• Avoid abrupt changes of direction where possible, bends of more than 90 degrees should be avoided at all
costs.

• Use of 150mm ducting is applicable for SLT958 models only, 200mm ducting is applicable for SLT952 /
SLT960 / SLT968.

WARNING

Reduction of the ducting diametrer will void the manufacturer warranty as it will severely affect the performance
of the motor and may cause damage with prolonged usage.

WARNING

Use ducting approved by standards enforced, see www.siriusbrand.com for details for approved ducting. The
manufacturer will not be deemed responsible for air capacity and noise problems caused by failure to comply
with the above and no warranty on the product will be provided.

DANGER

FAILURE TO INSTALL THE SCREWS OR FIXING DEVICE IN

ACCORDANCE WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN

ELECTRICAL HAZARDS OR ELECTROCUTION.

NOTE

The cassette requires one 10AMP GPO located inside the ceiling cavity

to power both the lighting and the motor.

The ceiling cassette is designed for a ceiling height of up to 2700mm high.

NOTE

As every installation will differ slightly depending on the ceiling cavity of the dwelling,

this installation shall be used as a guide only.

• These cassettes are held in place with the use
of the 4 x 250mm threaded bolts. Using the
measurements in the Fig. 4 line drawings ensure
that there is timber framework (not supplied) inside
the cavity to support the weight on the cassette.
Please refer to each individual measurement for
the exact location of the mounting holes or take
a physical measurement of the location when the
cassette has been unpackaged.

INSTALLING THE TIMBER SUPPORT BEAMS

• After running the timber support beams in the cavity above, pre-drill 4 x 8mm holes through the timber

and pass the 4 x 250mm bolts through them, ensuring that the larger washer is on the INSIDE OF THE
CEILING CASSETTE. (Fig. 5a)

• Lift the cassette into position and ensure that
the 4 x 250mm bolts pass through the mounting
points. Fit the larger diameter washer first and
then wind the wingnut up thr thread and tighten
the cassette into position. These will enable you
to flush the unit tight with the ceiling (Fig. 5a).

• After screws are fitted, replace the panels that
were removed during Step 1d by reattaching the

DUCTING FROM MOTOR TO WALL VENT: (SEM 1 and SEM 8)

1. Run the length of ducting to the motor. (Additional lengths of ducting can be attached using an

additional internal connector pieces.)
NOTE: No connector required as it connects directly to the collar of the motor.

2. Secure with another universal ring clamp (Part ‘F’).

NOTE: The location of the motor is to be no less than 2 metres away from the rangehoood.
Failure to do so may result in additional noise level of the downdraft. Maximum distance is 7 metres,
however 3 - 5 metres is optimum to minimise noise and maximise performance.

3. Using another length of semi-rigid duct run from the exit collar on the SEM 1 / SEM 8 to a predetermined

exit point and connect to weatherproof vent with a clamp.
