Safety Instructions (Continued)
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
• Check that the mains voltage matches with the
voltage on the data plate inside the 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 rangehood.
• Only plug this unit into a properly earthed outlet.
If in doubt seek advise from a suitably qualified
person or service agent.
WARNING:
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.
WARNING:
All electrical work must be done in
accordance with local and national electrical codes
as applicable and should be undertaken
by licenced and qualified persons only. Failure to
follow these instructions can result in death, fire or
electrical shock.
SAFETY WARNINGS: FOR THE INSTALLER
When installing the rangehood, make sure you
adhere to the minimum and maximum distances
from the rangehood base to the cooktop surface
(as per table on page 10).
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;
the more bends the lower the extraction
performance.
• 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 rangehood.
Exhaust air must not be discharged into a wall
cavity, unless the cavity is designed for that
purpose. The exhaust from the rangehood
must not be discharged into any heating flue, which
may carry combustion products from other sources.
NOTE:
Some installations may require the
expandable/telescopic ducting 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. Where using expandable ducting,
it’s important to have the ducting fully taught to
maximise efficiency of the airflow.
Important notice regarding the extraction mode.
WARNING:
Risk of poisoning from exhaust gases
sucked back. Never operate the device in extraction
mode simultaneously with an open flue appliance
when there is not adequate airflow guaranteed.
