Installation Instructions
WARNING:
Before starting the installation, please
refer to the Safety Information section.
• Always switch the power off prior to beginning
the installation.
• Stainless steel is very easily damaged during
installation.
• Wherever possible, protect the rangehood with
the cardboard box or plastic.
• A power point must be located within 1.5m of
the power cord exit from the rangehood, and it
should be always accessible to allow isolation
from power during cleaning or maintenance.
• A 150mm round ducting adapter is supplied,
however all other ducting accessories are not.
• All ducting must comply with building codes and
local requirements.
• If you are re-circulating the air, rather than
ducting, please ensure that the side outlet grilles
are not obstructed in any way as this will affect
the efficiency of the rangehood.
• Ensure that the rangehood is mounted in a
level position, both horizontally and vertically.
This is essential to ensure the rangehood
operates correctly and prevents grease build
up at one end.
IMPORTANT:
Never use a silicone around
your rangehood or flue pieces. Never install the
rangehood or flue pieces into the plaster ceiling
which prevents easy access to the rangehood for
servicing requirements.
IMPORTANT:
Before installing your rangehood,
please record the details of your rangehood’s rating
label (located within the rangehood, behind the
aluminium grease filters) into the form on page 19.
This will be helpful should you need to contact our
service team in the future.
POSITIONING THE RANGEHOOD
IMPORTANT:
The height of the rangehood
underside must be a minimum of 600mm* to a
maximum 650mm from the top of your cooktop
surface (for gas cooktops this is the top of the
gas burner).
* If the installation instructions for your cooktop
specify a greater distance than the minimum, then
that shall be the minimum height for installation.

INSTALLATION PREPARATION
Before beginning the installation of your rangehood,
the method of ducting should be considered. This
rangehood cannot be operated in recirculation
mode. We recommend to duct wherever possible.
Please follow the below tips on how to correctly
duct your rangehood:
• Always use correctly sized ducting.
• Do not reduce the size of the ducting.
• Always use solid ducting.
• Always use non-flammable ducting.
• Always duct to the outside atmosphere.
• Avoid use flexible ducting.
• Do not duct into the ceiling space.
Always vent to the outside atmosphere.
• Avoid sharp 90 degree bends as much
as possible. Use 45 degree bends instead
wherever possible.
• Duct to the outside atmosphere using the
shortest duct run possible.
• Use cylindrical ducting whenever possible.
Ducting Options
• Into your ceiling cavity and then vented through
your eaves.
• Straight up and through the roof.
• Through your wall.
