IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED)

Electrical connection

Check that the mains voltage matches with the voltage
on the data plate inside the canopy rangehood. Check
that the installation complies with standards of local
building, gas and electrical authorities. Before connecting
to the mains supply ensure that the mains voltage
corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate inside the
cooker hood.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or its service agent or similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard.

Safety warnings – for the installer

When installing the cooker hood, make sure you adhere
to the minimum and maximum distances from the cooker
hood base to the hob surface (refer to page 8).

Exhaust flue installation: The following rules must be
strictly followed to obtain optimal air extraction.

• Keep exhaust flue short and straight.

• Do not reduce the size or restrict exhaust flue. Keep

bends in the exhaust flue to a minimum.

• When using flexible flue always install duct with helix

pulled taut to minimise pressure loss.

• Failure to observe these basic instructions will

drastically reduce the performance and increase the
noise levels of the cooker hood.

Exhaust air must not be discharged into a wall cavity,
unless the cavity is designed for that purpose. The
exhaust from the cooker hood must not be discharged
into any heating flue, which may carry combustion
products from other sources.

NOTE: Some installations may require the telescopic
exhaust cover to be cut to length. Cut with sharp tin snips
or a fine-tooth hack saw blade, taking care not to distort
or dent the exhaust cover.
