ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Check that the installation complies with the
standards of local building, gas and electrical
authorities. Before connecting your rangehood
to the mains supply, ensure that the mains
voltage corresponds to the voltage on the
rating plate inside the rangehood.
BEFORE INSTALLATION
Recirculation extraction is not compatible for this
model. Before installation, please ensure that
the extraction mode is set to Ducting using the
adjuster on the motor (Figure 4).

DUCTED INSTALLATION
This rangehood has been supplied with
expandable plastic ducting, however for
maximum performance we recommend installing
with rigid or semi rigid ducting. Use cable ties or
suitable duct tape to secure the flexible pipe or
ducting to the rangehood duct outlet.
WARNING:
All ducting must be fire retardant.
Depending on your situation, there are multiple
options for ducting your rangehood, as follows:
• Straight up through your tiled or metal
roof, using a roof cowl (not supplied with
the rangehood).
• Into your ceiling cavity (where compliant
with local and national building
regulations/codes. Seek approval from the
relevant authority or building inspector
where necessary.
• Into your ceiling cavity and then vented to
the atmosphere through your eaves, using
no more than 2 × 90 degree bends within
the ducting run.
• Through your wall.
IMPORTANT:
Ducting can have a major effect on
your rangehoods performance. The following tips
outline how to correctly duct your rangehood.
• Always use the correct size ducting.
This rangehood is designed for use with
120mm ducting to achieve optimum airflow
performance and minimised noise.
• For maximum performance use semi rigid or
rigid ducting
• Always use non-flammable ducting
• Always duct to the outside atmosphere,
unless your local building codes and
regulations permit otherwise
• Where using flexible ducting, always install
the ducting pulled taut to minimize pressure
loss, and cut any excess ducting off.
• Where possible, avoid using 90 degree bends
and in their place use multiple 45 degree bends.

External Outdoor Ducting Mode
Recommended wherever possible for optimal
performance
If you have chosen to operate your rangehood in
“External Outdoor Ducting Mode” you will need
to follow the steps below:
1. Unscrew the 80mm fascia rail which is already
installed on the rangehood (Fig. 4)
2. Using the same screws, attach the 40mm
fascia rail (part ID 3, Installation Kit) supplied
in the box
3. Remove the aluminium grease fi lters (Fig 6. on
page 10) from the underside of the rangehood.
Turn the switch in the centre of the motor
housing to “External Outside Ducting” position
(Fig. 1)
4. Remove the charcoal fi lters by twisting anti-
clockwise (Fig. 8 on page 11). The charcoal
fi lters are not required for “external outdoor
ducting mode”
5. Clip in the plastic Front Vent Cover (part ID 9,
installation kit) over the vent holes on the front
of the rangehood.
6. Using the screws provided, install the Flu
Outlet Adaptor (Part ID 10, Installation kit)
to the top of the rangehood
7. Install the ducting pipe (not supplied) to the
outlet on the top of the rangehood and
vent to external air. It is recommended that
the ducting pipe is 120mm in diameter.
