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.
