Preparing for installation:
Before installing your rangehood:
●
●
Please read the instructions carefully.
●
●
Unpack the rangehood and check that all functions are working.
●
●
Ensure that the voltage (V) and the frequency (Hz) indicated on the serial plate
match the voltage and frequency at the installation site.
●
●
Check that the area behind the installation surface to be drilled is clear of any
electrical cables or pipes, etc.
●
●
The stainless steel and glass surfaces of the rangehood are very easily damaged
during installation if grazed or knocked by tools. Please take care to protect the
surfaces during installation.
●
●
Protect the cooktop surface below with cardboard, or the like, to prevent damage
occurring whilst the rangehood is being installed above.
●
●
Temporarily mark the height of the bottom of the rangehood and the centre of the
cooktop on the wall according to the information given in the ‘Installation instructions
– Height of rangehood’ section.
●
●
The wall used for mounting the rangehood should have sufficient strength and a
flat surface.
