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.
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.
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 cook top surface
(as per table on page 12)
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.
