IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Check that the mains voltage matches with the voltage on
the data plate inside the canopy cooker hood. 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 or barbecue surface (as per table in
“Installation” section).
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.
NOTE: Some installations may require the exhaust cover
to be cut to length. If required, cut with sharp tin snips or a
fine-tooth hack saw blade, taking care not to distort or dent
the exhaust cover.
