IM PORTANT IN FORMATION

Old appliances are not worthless rubbish. Valuable raw materials can be reclaimed by recycling old appliances. Before disposing of your old appliance, render it unusable.

You received your new appliance in a protective shipping carton. All packaging materials are environmentally friendly and recyclable. Please contribute to a better environment by disposing of packaging materials in an environmentally-friendly

manner. The hood can only be used in exhaust air

mode. Always mount the hood over the center of

the cooking surface. Z_ Minimum distance between electric

cooktop and bottom edge of hood: 30",

Fig. 1.

Z_ The hood must not be installed over a wood or coal burning stove - a potential fire

hazard (e.g. flying sparks) - unless the stove features a closed, non-removable cover and all national regulations are observed.

The smaller the gap between the hood and cooktops, the greater the likelihood that droplets will form on the underside of the

hood.

PRIOR TO INSTALLATION

Step 1: EXHAUST-AIR MODE

The exhaust air is discharged upwards through a duct or directly through the outside wall into the open.

_ Exhaust air should neither be directed into a smoke or exhaust flue that is currently

used for other purposes, nor into a duct that is used for ventilating rooms in which stoves or fireplaces are also located.

Exhaust air may be discharged in accordance with official and statutory regulations only (e.g. national building regulations).

Local authority regulations must be observed when discharging air into smoke

or exhaust flues that are not otherwise in

use.

f_ When the hood is operated in exhaust-air mode simultaneously with a

different burner which also makes use of the same chimney (such as gas, oil or

coal-fired heaters, continuous-flow heaters, hot-water boilers) care must be taken to ensure that there is an adequate supply of fresh air which will be needed by the

burner for combustion. Safe operation is possible provided that the

underpressure in the room where the burner is installed does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).

" " 211/2" 351/2 "/411/2"

.......... ----

This can be achieved if combustion air can flow through non-lockable openings, e.g. in

doors, windows and via the air-intake/ exhaust-air wall box.

If the air intake is inadequate, there is a

risk of poisoning from combustion gases which are drawn back into the room.

Z_ WARNING - Avoid risk of poisoning - If the air intake to the room is inadequate,

there is a risk of poisoning from combustion gases which can be drawn back into the

room.

Note: When assessing the overall requirement, the combined ventilation system for the entire household must be

taken into consideration. This rule does not apply to the use of cooking appliances,

such as hobs and ovens.

If the exhaust air is going to be discharged into the open, a telescopic wall box should be fitted into the

outside wall.

PRIOR TO INSTALLATION

For optimum hood efficiency: [] Short, smooth duct pipe. [] As few bends in the ducting as possible.

[] Diameter of ducting to be as large as

possible and no tight bends in ducting. If long, rough exhaust-air ducting,

many ducting bends or smaller pipe diameters are used, the air extraction

rate will no longer be at an optimum level and there will be an increase in

noise. IMPORTANT: The manufacturer of the

hood accepts no liability for complaints which can be attributed to the design and layout of the duct-

work.

[] Round pipes:

We recommend Internal diameter: 6".

[] Flat ducts must have an internal cross-

section that equates to that of round pipes. There should be no sharp bends. ¢ 6" approx. 50.3 inches 2

[] If pipes have different diameters:

Insert sealing strip.

[] For exhaust-air mode, ensure that

there is an adequate supply of fresh air.

Step 2: PREPARING THE WALL [] The wall must be flat and perpendicular. [] Ensure that the wall is capable of

providing a firm hold for mounting

screws and plugs.

Weight in kg: 23.0

CONNECTING A ¢ 6" EXHAUST-AIR

DUCT: [] Mount the duct directlyonto the air out-

leton thehood.

PRIOR TO INSTALLATION

Step 3: ELECTRICAL CONNECTION Z_ WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST

BE GROUNDED The hood should only be connected to a

grounded socket that has been installed according to relevant regulations.

Ifpossible, site the earthed socket directly behind the chimney paneling.

[] The grounded socket should be

connected via its own circuit.

[] Ifthe grounded socket is no longer

accessible following installation of the hood, ensure that there is a permanently

installed disconnector.

Step 4: INSTALL ELECTRICAL SERVICE

Check your local building codes for proper method of installation. In the U.S., if there

are no applicable local codes, this unit should be installed in accordance with the

National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70, Current Issue. (In Canada, installation must

be inaccordance with the CAN 1- B149.1 and .2 - Installation Codes for Gas Burning

Appliances and/or local codes). Z_ CAUTION - Connect only to a

dedicated branch circuit. Maximum ampere rating of the rangehood shall not be more than 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.

The appliance must be grounded. Inthe event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING - Improper grounding can

result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if the

grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Do not use an extension cord. Ifthe power

supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install an outlet near the

appliance.

If it is necessary to wire the hood directly

into the mains:

WARNING - Avoid risk of electrical

shock - If the connecting cable for this appliance is damaged, the cable must be replaced by the manufacturer or his customer service or a similarly qualified person in order to prevent serious injury to

the user.

ELECTRICAL DATA:

Are to be found on the name plate inside the appliance after removal of the filter

frame. Z_ WARNING - Avoid risk of electrical

shock - Before undertaking any repairs, always disconnect the hood from the electricity supply.

Length of the connecting cable: 511/8".
