•
Make sure that the household voltage is same as the voltage on the rating label of the
rangehood before installation.
•
The wall or ceiling on which the rangehood is installed must be strong and flat enough to
support the rangehood. The wall shall be non-combustible and the rangehood must not be
mounted on a wall made of flammable material such as wood.
•
To prevent any fire, please discharge the exhaust gas to a public cold flue (in
apartments) or outdoors.
•
The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from
appliances burning gas or other fuels.
•
Do not unpack your rangehood if your kitchen is undergoing decoration as building
materials , dust, paint, coatings , and their gases can corrode and tarnish the surface of
the range hood. Please install the rangehood after the decoration.
•
The rangehood shall be level, firm and steady after the installation.
Location and height for installation
•
Install the rangehood in a dry place without direct sunlight.
•
If the rangehood is installed within a cabinet, the latter must be installed with enough
space reserved to easily install, disassemble and maintain the rangehood.
•
The rangehood shall be installed as close to the outlet of the flue or external wall as
possible to shorten the distance between the outlet of the rangehood and the public flue or
external wall.
•
The rangehood shall be mounted above the stove in parallel and on the same axis.
•
The safety gap between the rangehood and the hob below must comply with the
recommendations of the hob manufacturer. In case of no instructions, a minimum distance
of 650mm (or other minimum distance as may be specified by AS/NZS 5601 and
interpreted by a certified installer) should apply.
•
The maximum distance shall not exceed 750mm so as not to affect the exhaust effect.
