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.

Ducting available at www.siriusbrand.com

A reduction in the duct diameter from stated ducting size will void warranty.

If you are in doubt about the ducting, please contact Sirius on 1300 762 219 prior to installation

At Sirius, we are constantly seeking to improve
our products. We reserve the right to modify their
technical, functional, or aesthetic characteristics
deriving from their upgrading.

Motors manufactured and approved by Sirius only
are to be used at all times. Failure to comply with this
will result in the forfeit of the manufacturer warranty.

The air collected must not be conveyed into a flue

PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS

Connect all of the electrical components to the unit and motor to make sure both the unit and the motor are
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; from the outlet collar on the cassette to the
exit point.

• 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.

• The ducting applicable for this cassetteis 220mm x 90mm rectangular Sirius Ducting and can be
purchased through the retailer where the cassette was purchased, or visit www.siriusbrand.com.
The ducting can be transitioned from rectanguar to round if desired.

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.

After swinging open the panel, disconnect the
lighting by depressing the tabs on the connection
and pulling on the cable.
To ensure that no damage is caused during
the installation process, remove the panels by
unscrewing the hinges on the underside of the
cassette.
This will also lighten the Cassette to make lifting it
into place and installation easier. (Fig. 2)

DUCTING THE CASSETTE

1. Part ‘A’ will come fitted to the short side of the cassette from the factory. If either of the long side options

are required, remove Part ‘A’ from the short side by removing the 4 x 10mm screws holding it in place.
Unscrew the 4 x 10mm screws from the long side and remove the blocking plate, Part ‘A’ in its place and use
the blocking plate to cover the gap on the short side.

2. Connect Part ‘B’ to Part ‘A’ and fix in place with

duct tape to ensure a tight seal. Do not use screws
as this can cause a whistling noise once the motor
is switched on.

3. Connect part ‘C’ (needs to be purchased

separately and does not come included in the
packaging with the cassette) to Part ‘B’.

4. Connect part ‘D’ (needs to be purchased

separately and does not come included in the
packaging with the cassette) to Part ‘C’.

5. If additional lenghts of ducting are needed to get

to the exit point, use another Part ‘C’ and another
Part ‘D’.
