Installation Instructions
HINTS FOR EXHAUST DUCT INSTALLATION
The following rules must be strictly followed to obtain optimal air extraction:
•
Keep expansion pipe short and straight.
•
Do not reduce the size or restrict the expansion pipe.
•
When using the expansion pipe always install the pipe pulled taut to minimize pressure loss.
•
Failure to observe these basic instructions will reduce the performance and increase noise levels of
the cooker hood.
•
Any installation work must be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.
•
Do not connect the ducting system of the hood to any existing ventilation system which is being
used for any other appliance, such as warmer tube, gas tube, hot wind tube.
•
The angle of the bend of the expansion pipe should not be less than 120º; you must direct the pipe
horizontally, or, alternatively, the pipe should go up from the initial point and should be led to an
outer wall.
•
After the installation, make sure that the cooker hood is level to avoid grease collection at one end.
•
Ensure the expansion pipe selected for installation complies with relevant standards and is fire
retardant.
WARNING:
•
For safety reason, please use only the same size of fixing or mounting screws which are
recommended in this instruction manual.
•
Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in
electrical hazards.
