Cooker Hood

MSH601WE MSH601BLKE & MSH601SSE

• The Cooker Hood must be installed

according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Improper installation may result in injury or

damage, for which the manufacturer cannot

be held responsible.

• Check that the voltage (230 Volts AC)

printed on the rating label inside the

Cooker Hood corresponds to the mains

voltage in your home. If in doubt call a

qualified electrician.

• Never replace the electrical cable yourself.

An authorised service centre must replace

damaged electrical cables.

• Adaptors, multiple sockets and/or extension

leads must not be used.

• To avoid electrical shock, never touch the

Cooker Hood or plug with wet hands.

• Ventilation outlets on the Cooker Hood

should never be covered, as obstructions

may cause overheating or fire.

• Always disconnect the plug from the mains

supply before cleaning the Cooker Hood or

carrying out maintenance work.

Safety

WARNING!

It is hazardous for anyone other than

authorised service personnel to carry out

Servicing or repairs which involves the

removal of covers.

To avoid the risk of an electric shock do not

attempt to repair this appliance yourself.

Disposal

Old appliances still have some residual value.

An environmentally friendly method of

disposal will ensure that valuable raw

materials can be recovered and used again.

Up to date information concerning options for

disposing of your old appliance and

packaging from the new one can be obtained

from your local council office.

• Do not flambé under the Cooker Hood as

this may cause a fire hazard.

• The Cooker Hood is not intended for use

by young children or infirm persons.

• The risk of fire is increased if cleaning

instructions are not followed correctly.

Rear mounted or top mounted

The Cooker Hood can

be rear mounted by

fitting it to an

open area

of kitchen wall,

as shown in the

picture opposite.

Or top mounted

by fitting it to the

underside of a

kitchen cupboard,

as shown in the

picture opposite.

You may choose to install your Cooker Hood by:

a) external ventilation using ducting to extract

the ‘dirty’ air or:

b) internal ventilation, which re-circulates the

air, using a Charcoal filter.

For details of where to obtain either the ducting

or Charcoal filter, please contact the store from

which you purchased your Cooker Hood.

Extracted air

If it is being fitted to a kitchen wall which is

an outside wall (i.e. the other side of the wall

is in the open air) or to a wall which contains

an old chimney flue, the extracted air method

can be used. This is where the ‘dirty’ air from

the kitchen cooker is blown into the open air,

either up the chimney flue or through a hole

in the wall. This is the most effective way to

use the Cooker Hood. However, the air

extracted from the unit should not enter a

chimney or flue which is being used for

other appliances that use gas or other fuels.

Local regulations regarding chimney flues

must be adhered to.

Min

160mm

Filters

The Cooker Hood is supplied with a Grease filter.

This thin grease filter is fitted to the unit. It should

always be used as it traps grease from the

‘dirty’ air. Therefore, the Cooker Hood,

its ducting and chimney flue do not get

excessively greasy.

The Grease filter has to be cleaned and/or

replaced regularly, as explained later.

The Charcoal filter, which is not supplied,

contains charcoal that is capable of adsorbing

gasses containing smells.

Obviously, if you are using the Cooker Hood

as an extractor, it is not necessary to use this

filter, as all the smells go into the outside air.

If fitted, the Charcoal filter has to be replaced

regularly, as explained later.

Fixing height

The Cooker Hood should be fitted so that its

underside is a minimum of 700mm above the

surface of the cooker below.

Installation options

Re-circulated air

If it is being fitted to a kitchen wall which is an

inside wall (i.e. the other side of the wall is

another room of the house, or a neighbours

house) the re-circulated air method must be used.

This is where the ‘dirty’ air from the kitchen

cooker is passed through a Charcoal filter to

remove smells. The air is then re-circulated back

into the kitchen.

Min 700mm

Connect the Cooker Hood to an electrical

socket.

WARNING!

Always remember to disconnect from the mains

supply

before

cleaning

and

completing

any

maintenance

the

Cooker

Hood.

you

are

fitting

the

unit

outside

wall

you

will need the following items:

A minimum

of 500mm

flexible

ducting,

125mm in diameter.

- An external grille.

1 There is a ‘diverter switch’ inside the

Cooker Hood, which diverts the air so that

it leaves through one of the circular ducting

Sockets.

Turn the switch to position B,

as shown in the picture below.

2 Decide whether you can make a hole

through an external wall directly behind

the Cooker Hood or whether you will have

to make a hole elsewhere.

The Cooker Hood is designed so that you

can choose whether to blow air out of its

rear side (horizontal discharge) or top side

(vertical discharge). Depending on your

choice, remove the partially cut disk

(knockout panel) from the top or rear of

the Cooker Hood. Insert a flat head

screwdriver under one edge and lever it

up. A pair of pliers may be required to

pull it free. Break all four attachment points

and it will come free. It can be discarded.

Be careful, it has very sharp edges!

7 Fit the Ducting connector into the Ducting

socket adaptor.

Two extra ‘security screws’ are used to ensure

the unit is secure and isn’t accidentally pushed

off the keyhole slots.

Screw the keyhole positioned screws into your

wall or kitchen cupboard so that the top

surface of the screw head is approximately

4mm from the surface you are screwing to.

If you are rear mounting the unit, drill all four

holes and fit the rawlplugs, but don’t fit the two

‘security screws’ until the unit is in place.

If you are top mounting the unit, drill all eight

holes, but don’t fit the four ‘security screws’

until the unit is in place.

5 Check that your fixings are correctly

located, by temporarily fitting the

Cooker Hood. If correct, remove the

protective film from each side of the unit.

6 Fit the Ducting socket adaptor in the hole

you made in the Cooker Hood when the

knockout panel was removed. Some of

the black plastic tabs of the adaptor

should be pushed through the hole, while

others remain above. This locks the

adaptor in place.

3 Make a 130mm hole through your

external kitchen wall in the appropriate

place. If you are using the top mounted

method of fixing you will have to use a

jigsaw to cut a 130mm diameter hole in

the kitchen cupboard.

It is recommend that a qualified person,

experienced in fitting Cooker Hoods,

is consulted before installation.

4 Use the card template supplied to mark

the position of the fixing screws.

If you are going to rear-mount the Cooker Hood,

the screws and rawlplugs supplied should only

be used in a (plastered) brick, breeze block or

blockwork wall. They are not suitable for lath

and plaster walls or stud and plasterboard

walls. Consult a qualified builder for advice on

fixing into these types of walls. If you are top

fixing the Cooker Hood to a kitchen cupboard,

use the screws provided.

The keyhole slots are designed so the

Cooker Hood locates over the larger area of

the hole and is then pushed back, or dropped

down onto the smaller area of the hole.

8 Fit the flexible ducting into the Ducting

socket adaptor.

Fit the unit into position. Tighten the

screws if necessary. Feed the flexible

ducting through the hole in the wall.

9 Fit the external grille.

10 The Charcoal filter is designed to remove

‘odours’ from dirty air. As the ‘odours’ are

being extracted to the outside air it is not

necessary to fit the Charcoal filter.

11 Fit the main filter panel by locating the

rear pins in their slots and pressing the

release buttons. It will click into place.

12 Connect the Cooker Hood to the power

supply, as mentioned earlier in the guide.

Ducted air installation

1 The Cooker Hood must be fitted so that it

protrudes 160mm from the cupboard it is

being fitted to (see page 2). This is to

allow the re-circulated air to escape

through the grille in the top of the unit.

2 Use the card template supplied to mark

the position of the fixing screws.

The keyhole slots are designed so the

Cooker Hood locates over the larger area of

the hole and is then pushed back, onto the

smaller area of the hole. Two extra ‘security

screws’ are used to ensure the unit is secure and

isn’t accidentally pushed off the keyhole slots.

Screw the keyhole positioned screws into your

wall or kitchen cupboard so that the top

surface of the screw head is approximately

4mm from the surface you are screwing to.

If you are top mounting the unit, drill all eight

holes, but don’t fit the four ‘security screws’

until the unit is in place.

3 Check that your fixings are correctly

located, by temporarily fitting the

Cooker Hood. If correct, remove the

protective film from each side of the unit.

4 Fit the unit into position. Tighten the

screws if necessary.

5 Fit the Charcoal filter (not supplied –

please contact the store from which you

purchased your Cooker Hood) by first

lift

the filter up into the Cooker Hood,

aligning the posts with the locating holes

on the filter. Turn the filter clockwise

to lock it into position.

6 Fit the main filter panel by locating the

rear pins in their slots and pressing the

release buttons. It will click into place.

7 Connect the Cooker Hood to the power

supply, as mentioned earlier in the guide.
