Installation
Preparation and Check before Mounting
1
Checking mounting surface strength
The mounting surface should have sufficient strength enough to support the cooker hood.
Mount the cooker hood on a place durable to support the weight of the cooker hood.
[Weight: 34.5 kg
]
In the case of boarded wall
If the thickness is more than 20mm, mount the cooker hood directly to the wall.
If the thickness is less than 20mm, embed a reinforcing board and mount the cooker
hood to this board.
In the case of a concrete/tile faced wall
Embed a reinforcing board in the wall in advance, or use a curl plug or the like.
Installation

Power supply plug
The power plug of this cooker hood is 5A 3-pin plug (Type-BF: BS1363).
Be sure to use the wall outlet only for the cooker hood.
1. Mount the cooker hood carefully and avoid contact with any metal parts (the lath in
the wall or the like) of the building.
2. Never embed the body of the cooker hood in the wall. Otherwise, leakage current in
the wall, if any, flows to the body of the cooker hood.
3. The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from
appliances burning gas or other fuels (not applicable to appliances that only discharge
the air back into the room).
4. The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the
hob and the lowest part of the cooker hood. When the cooker hood is located above
a gas appliance, this distance shall be at least 80cm.
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this has to
be taken into account.
5. Use a gas range having a narrower width than that of the cooker hood.
6. Avoid using the cooker hood with changes in the specification, for instance, with modifying
the switch.
7. Do not install the cooker hood in a wet area or in other wet rooms since it may result in
electric shock or damage.
8. Do not install the cooker hood at a place where its ambient temperature exceeds 40°C,
otherwise it may result in failure.
9. To protect your hands from injury, wear working gloves when installing the cooker hood.
10. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service
agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
11. If it's possible to touch the fan when inserting hand from the outer port of the exhaust
duct because its length is rather short, take some measures for preventing from
inserting hand.
