INSTRUCTIONS
1 - GENERAL INFORMATION
This canopy hood is designed to be fixed to any
rigid vertical surface, over a gas or electric
hotplate and can be used either in the extraction
mode (ducted to the outside) or in the recircu-
lation mode (internal recycling).
Before commencing the installation, consi-
deration should be given to the difficulties to
be found during installation and to the bulky
weight of the hood. The installation work
must be undertaken by a qualified and
competent person in conformity to the rules
concerning the evacuation of contaminated
air. The manufacturer disclaims all liability
for any damage or injury caused as a result
of not following the instructions for instal-
lation contained in the following text.

3 - SAFETY WARNINGS
3.1 - When used in the extraction mode the cooker
hood ducting must not be connected to a flue
which is used for exhausting fumes from
appliances supplied with energy other than
electric such as a central heating flue or water
heating flue.
3.2 - Before connecting to the mains supply ensure
that the mains voltage corresponds with the
voltage on the rating plate inside the hood.
3.3 - Connect the cooker hood to the mains via a
double pole switch which has 3 mm clearance
between the contacts.
3.4 - The appliance must be earthed.
3.5 - When istalled, the hood must be positioned
at least 65 cm above a cooking appliance.
3.6 - Never do flambé cooking under this cooker
hood.
3.7 - Never leave frying pans unattended during
use as overheated fats and oils may catch
fire.
3.8 - Before carring out any kind of maintenance
or cleaning, disconnect the hood from the
mains supply.
3.9 - If the room where the cooker hood is to be
used contains a fuel burning appliance such
as a central heating boiler then this must be
of the room sealed or balanced flue type. If
other types of flue or appliance are fitted en-
sure that there is an adequate supply of air
into the room. When the cooker hood is used
in conjunction with other appliances supplied
with energy other than electric, the negative
pressure in the room must not exceed 0,04
mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back into
the room by the cooker hood.
4 - INSTALLATION
The cooker hood may be fixed using one of
three methods:
A - installation of the cooker hood with splashback
(optional);
B - installation of the cooker hood without splash-
back;
C - installation of the cooker hood aligning the top
of the chimney with the top of the adjoining
cabinets.
P (only
To avoid accidents when fitting the hood and
a
)
chimney to the wall please read and carry out
the installation instruction.
For easy installation proceed as follows:
4.1 - Fix the wall brackets.
4.2 - Fix the canopy hood.
4.3 - Connect the hood to the mains supply and ensure
that it works properly.
4-4 - Set the hood for recirculation or evacuation.
4.5 - Fix the telescopic chimney stack.
4.1 - Fixing the wall brackets.
Installation type A/B (fig. 2a-b)
1 - Draw a vertical line on the wall, from the centre
of the cooking appliance up to the ceiling, using
a marking pen. This is to ensure the correct
vertical alignment of the wall fixing brackets.
2 - Fixing the wall brackets item 1
Draw a horizontal line on the wall ensuring that
the distance from the cooktop is as follows:
a - when the splasback is to be installed:
(fig. 2a) d = 200 mm + H, where H is the
height of the visible part of the splashback;
as the splashback can be of different heights,
the correct figure can only be obtained by
measuring the actual height of the splash-
back to be fitted.
b - without splashback (fig. 2b) d = 850 mm
minimum.
Mark on the horizontal line the centres of
the two keyholes of the bracket item 1 at a
distance Y = 100 mm between the centres
of the holes and the centre of the cooker
hood.
3 - Fixing the wall brackets item 2
a - Place one of the two brackets (item 2 fig. 1)
15 mm from the ceiling or from a horizontal
line drawn between the top of the adjoining
wall cabinets, ensuring that the bracket is
level and mark the centres for the keyhole
bracket fixing screws.
b - Place the other wall bracket (item
2 fig. 1)
on the wall at "X" distance. This measure-
ment should be determined by the height of
the upper chimney stack and mark the cen-
tres for the keyhole bracket fixing screws.
4 - Pilot drill all the hole positions as marked on
the wall using an 8 mm drill and fix the wall
brackets 1-2 using the rawl plugs and screws
supplied.
5 - Splashback (optional)
When a splashback is to be fitted, the distance
between the cooker hood and the cooking ap-
pliances will be determined by the height of the
splashback, item F. The splashback is to be
installed before installing the canopy. If the
splashback is to be fixed to the wall using both
the top and bottom fixing holes care must be
taken to ensure that the splashback is fitted at
the correct height before fixing it into position.
The fitting should be undertaken by a a com-
petent person with experience in this type of
installation.
If the splashback is to be fixed through
only the
top fixing holes proceeds as follows:
a - Put the splashback on the worktop as illu-
strated in fig. 2a; then holding it against the
wall to ensure that it is correctly positioned
mark the holes for the top fixing screws on
the wall.
b - Pilot drill the wall using an 8 mm drill and
fix the splashback using the 8 mm rawl
plugs and screws supplied.
c - If the fixing holes in the bottom of the
splashback are not to be used to secure the
splashback to the wall the installer should
ensure that the bottom edge is tucked down
behind the rear of the worktop.
Installation type C (fig. 3)
This type of installation may be carried out using
only the U-shaped lower chimney item I.
1 - Draw a vertical line on the wall from the centre
of the cooking appliance up to the upper limit
which can be represented by a wooden shelf to
ensure the correct vertical alignment of the wall
fixing brackets.
The measurement X may differ according to
the height of the U-shaped lower chimney. The
measurement must correspond to the height of
the chimney I, plus 35 mm.
2 - Fixing the wall brackets item 1
Mark the fixing hole for the brackets on the
horizontal line as shown in pragraph 4.1 2.
3 - Fixing the wall brackets item 2
a - Place one of the two wall brackets as shown
in paragraph 4.1.3.
b - Mark the centres for the two keyhole fixing
bracket screws on the wall.
4 - Pilot drill all the centres using an 8 mm drill
and fix the wall brackets 1-2 using the 8 mm
rawl plugs and screws supplied.
4.2 - Fixing the canopy hood (fig. 4)
1 - Hook the canopy hood, item C, onto the wall
fixing brackets ensuring the security fixing screws
align with the holes in the centre of the back pa-
nel of the cooker hood as illustrated in
fig. 4.
2 - Fit the two regulation screws, item W, of 4Mx25
(supplied) into the keyholes of the wall brackets
3 - The canopy can be aligned or adjusted in height
by using the two adjustement screws item
4.3 - Electrical connection and working test
1 - The safety measures 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 of paragrapf
3 are to be strictly observed.
2 - Once the electrical connection has been com-
pleted, check that worktop illumination, motor
and speed work properly.
4.4 - Ducting or Recirculation fitting
1 - Ducting fitting (installation type A/B)
a - The cooker hood can be ducted to the out-
side using either rigid or flexible fire retar-
dant ducting of 120 or 150 mm. The choice
is left to the installer.
When 120 mm ducting is to be used it will
be necessary to install the reduction flange
item K on the air outlet fig. 5.
The installer should provide suitable ducting
and sealing material for the installation.
The cooker hood can also be ducted to the
outside through one of the rectangular ope-
nings located in either side of the lower
section of the chimney stack. In this case
the deflector (item D) should be fitted into
the spigot (item R) to close the aperture
which is not used (fig. 7).
c - If the hood is provided with the charcoal
filters fitted, the filters should be removed.
2 - Ducting connection (Installation type C)
This type of installation allows the connection
of the cooker hood to the outside by 90x132
mm rectangular pipes using only the U-shaped
lower chimney item I (fig. 3).
a - Pilot drill a 120 mm hole in the shelf placed
W.
