Installation
(A minimum clearance height of 650 mm
is required when installed above a built in
electric hob or 700 mm when installed
above a built in gas hob).
Do not connect the chimney hood exhaust
to the same conductor used to circulate
hot air or for evacuating fumes from other
appliances generated by any other source
than an electrical source.
Before proceeding with the assembly
operations, remove the anti-grease filter(s)
so that the unit is easier to handle.
Installation sequence;
1.
Extractor unit / chimney brackets.
2.
Top chimney duct.
3.
Bottom chimney duct.
•
Carefully remove the extractor hood
and
the
components
from
the
packaging.
•
Carefully remove the protective film.
•
Remove the grease filters.
•
Draw a fine vertical line on the wall
from the rear-centre of the hob to the
ceiling.
•
Draw another line, horizontal this time,
where the bottom edge of the hood
should be.
•
For mounting the chimney brackets,
drill 6 holes, 5 mm in diameter and 45
mm deep into the wall.
•
For mounting the extractor hood, drill 4
holes, 8 mm in diameter and 60 mm
deep.
•
Push the 5 mm diameter wall plugs
through the holes in the chimney
mounting brackets. Insert the plugs into
the drilled holes together with the
chimney mounting bracket and fasten
securely.
•
Push the 8 mm diameter wall plugs into
the 8 mm diameter holes ensuring that
they are flush with the wall.
•
Partially screw two 6 mm diameter
screws into the two top wall plugs
leaving them to protrude about 10 mm.
•
Lift and hook the extractor hood over
and onto the two protruding screws
through the key-hole slots provided at
the top of the extractor hood frame.
•
Insert the other two 6 mm diameter
screws through the holes inside the
extractor hood housing and into the 8
mm diameter wall plugs.
•
Align the extractor hood with the centre
and horizontal lines before tightening
all four 6 mm screws.
Before fitting the chimneys, connect up
the outlet ducting (if required) and
insert the fitted plug into the wall
socket.
•
Remove the protective film from the
chimney ducting taking care not to
damage the polished stainless steel
surface.
•
Fit the upper chimney duct section (the
one with louvre outlets) to the ceiling
mounting bracket using the screws
supplied.
•
The lower duct fits over the chimney
hood motor assembly and over the
upper duct. Take care not to scratch or
damage the hood and upper duct
surfaces.
•
Loosely
attach the lower duct bottom
edge to the hood by four self tapping
screws through six holes on the inside
of the extractor hood.
•
Fit the lower chimney duct to the lower
wall mounting bracket and tighten the
six screws on the inside of the extractor
hood.
•
Drill 3.5 mm Dia. holes through the top
holes in the bottom chimney and
through the lower end of the top
chimney duct.
•
Fasten the two chimneys to the centre
chimney bracket.
