• This appliance is only intended for use by adults who have read these instructions.

• This appliance is not a toy! To avoid the risk of injury, keep children well away and do not allow

them to play with it or to use the controls. They will not understand the potential dangers posed by

it. They should be supervised whenever you are working in the kitchen.

• Older children may use the cooker hood only when its operation has been clearly explained to them

and they are able to use it safely, recognising the dangers of misuse.

Correct use

• Never use an open ame beneath the cooker hood. To avoid the danger of re, do not ambé or

grill over an open ame under the cooker hood.

• When switched on, the cooker hood could draw ames into the lter. Fat particles drawn into the

cooker hood present a re hazard.

• When using the cooker hood over a gas hob, ensure that any burners in use are always covered by a

pan. Switch the cooking zone o when a pan is removed, even for a short time.

• Regulate the ame so that it does not burn up the sides of the pan.

• Do not allow the pans to overheat excessively (e.g. when using a wok).

• The cooker hood can become damaged when exposed to excessive heat.

• Always switch the cooker hood on when a cooking zone is in use, otherwise condensation may

collect in the hood, which could cause corrosion.

Technical safety

• Before installation, check the cooker hood for visible signs of damage. Under no circumstances

should you use a damaged appliance. It could be dangerous.

• Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, make sure that the voltage and frequency

details given on the data plate correspond with the on-site electricity supply, otherwise the

appliance could be damaged. Consult a qualied electrician if in any doubt.

• The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between

the appliance and an eective earthing system complies with the current local and national safety

regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and tested regularly,

and where there is any doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualied

electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing

system (e.g. electric shock).

• For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used when it has been fully installed.

• Only open the housing as described in the instructions. Under no circumstances should any

other parts of the housing be opened. Tampering with electrical connections or components and

mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user, and can cause operational faults.

• Installation, maintenance and repairs may only be carried out by an authorised person in

accordance with the current national and local safety regulations. Repairs and other work by

unqualied persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised

work.

• Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine original parts.

• Great care should be taken when using the cooker hood at the same time and in the same room

or area of the house as another heating appliance which depends on the air in the room. Such

appliances include gas, oil, wood or coal-red boilers and heaters, continuous ow or other water

heaters, gas hobs, cookers or ovens which draw air in from the room and duct exhaust gases out

through a chimney or extraction ducting.

• When used in extraction mode, the appliance draws air in from the room in which it is installed

and from neighbouring rooms.

• If there is insucient air, an underpressure will occur. The heating appliance may be starved of

oxygen, impairing combustion.

• Harmful gases could be drawn out of the chimney or extraction ducting back into the room, with

potentially fatal consequences.

• In order to ensure safe operation, and to prevent gases given o by the heating appliances

from being drawn back into the room when the cooker hood and the heater are in operation

simultaneously, an underpressure of 0.04 mbar

(4 pa) is the maximum permissible in the room.

• During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance must be disconnected from the

mains electricity supply. It is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when:

– it is switched o at the isolator, or

– the mains fuse is disconnected, or

– it is switched o at the wall socket and the plug withdrawn, or

– the fuse of the fused spur connection unit is withdrawn.

• Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension

lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating). This

appliance may only be used in mobile installations if a risk assessment of the installation has been

carried out by a suitably qualied engineer.

• In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular

attention to keeping the appliance and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times.

Using at the same time as other heating

appliances that depend on the air from

the same room.

Warning

Danger of toxic fumes.

• Ventilation can be maintained by air inlets

which must not be blocked, in windows,

doors and outside wall vents, or by other

technical measures, such as ensuring that

the cooker hood can only be switched on

when the heating appliance is switched o

or vice versa. A ventilation brick alone is not

generally sucient to ensure safe ventilation.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these

Warning and Safety instructions.

If in any doubt , the advice of a qualied builder, gas tter (Gas Safe registered in the UK) or

electrician must be sought.

• If the only way of ensuring adequate ventilation is via an open window, a window contact switch

should be tted to ensure that the cooker hood can only operate when the window is opened

suciently. A window contact switch kit is available from good builders' merchants. Take care

when ventilating the room through an open window that ventilation is not impaired by a closed

blind or curtain. If the hood is being operated in recirculation mode, the above restrictions do not

apply.

The overall ventilation condition of the dwelling must be taken into account. If in any doubt,

the advice of a competent builder or, for gas, a qualied gas tter (Gas Safe registered in the

UK) must be sought.

Correct installation

• Refer to the cooker or hob manufacturer's instructions as to whether a cooker hood may be

operated above the cooker/hob.

• The minimum safe distances between the top of the cooker or hob and the bottom of the cooker

hood given in the Installation section of this booklet must be maintained, unless the hob/cooker

manufacturer states that a greater safe distance is required.

• If more than one appliance is tted beneath the cooker hood, and they have dierent minimum

safe distances to the cooker hood, select the greater distance.

• Safety regulations prohibit the tting of a cooker hood over solid fuel stoves.

• All ducting, pipework and ttings must be of non-ammable material. These can be obtained from

builders' merchants.

• The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or vent ue which is in use. Neither should it be

connected to ducting which ventilates rooms with replaces.

• If exhaust air is to be extracted into a chimney or ventilation duct no longer used for other

purposes, seek professional advice.

Accessories

• Only use genuine original spare parts and accessories with this appliance.

Modes of Operation

Air Extraction

The air is drawn in and cleaned by the acrylic lters and directed outside.

The non-return ap supplied with the appliance must be tted in the exhaust hole.

Having a non-return ap tted in the ducting ensures that air, once ducted to the outside,

cannot get back into the room again.

The ap is closed when the cooker hood is switched o.

When the cooker hood is switched on, the non-return ap opens for the cooking vapours

to be ducted away.

Operation

To Select the Fan Motor Speed

Your cooker hood has 3 levels of extraction. Depending on the cooking and frying vapours, you should run the

cooker hood with "1" low, "2" medium or "3" high speed. To run the cooker hood, slide the motor speed selector to

the desired extraction speed on the front panel.

Slide the motor speed selector to the "0" position to turn the unit o.

• Carbon lters are available as an optional extra, see rear page for ordering details.

• Before using the cooker hood in recirculation mode, ensure that the carbon lter is in place. See

“Cleaning and Maintenance”.

• Do not ambé under the cooker hood.

• CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.

Ensure there is adequate ventilation in the room when the cooker hood is used at the same time as other

appliances burning gas or other fuels.

Safety Distance Between Hob and Cooker hood

Min.700 mm

When planning the installation height of your cooker hood, the minimum safe distance between the top

of a cooker or hob and the bottom of the cooker hood is 700mm.

• Account should also be taken of the height of the person who will be using the hood most often. The person

should have sucient space to work comfortably at the hob, and also be able to reach the hood controls with

ease.

• Please be aware that if positioned too high, extraction will be inecient.

Connection for Air Extraction

Only use smooth pipes or exible hoses made from non-ammable materials for the extraction ducting.

To achieve the greatest possible air extraction with the lowest noise level, please note the following:

• To ensure ecient air extraction, the diameter of the exhaust ducting should not be less than 120mm.

• If at ducting is being used, the cross-sectional area must not be smaller than the cross sectional area of the

exhaust connection.

• All ducting, pipework and ttings must be made of non-ammable materials.

• The exhaust ducting should be as short and straight as possible.

• Only use wide radius bends.

• The exhaust ducting should not be kinked or compressed.

• Ensure that all connections are strong and airtight.

• Where ducting is horizontal, it must be laid to slope away at least 1cm per metre. This is to ensure that

condensate cannot drain back into the cooker hood.

If the exhaust ducting is to run through rooms, ceiling space etc. where there may be great variations in

temperature between the different areas, the problem of condensation will need to be addressed. The

exhaust ducting will need to be suitably insulated.

• To avoid the danger of toxic fumes, please observe the safety warnings.

• This is especially crucial when using the cooker hood at the same time as another heating appliance

which relies on air from the same room.

• The cooker hood should be installed according to the local and national building regulations. Seek

approval from the building inspector where necessary.

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.

2. Make a 130mm hole on the top of your cabinet. You will have to use a jigsaw to cut a 130mm diameter hole

in the kitchen cupboard. It is recommended that a qualied person, experienced in tting cooker hoods, is

consulted before installation.

3. Use the card template supplied to mark the position of the xing screws.

4. If you are going to rear-mount the cooker hood, the screws and wall plugs 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 qualied builder for advice on xing to these types of walls. If you are top xing

the cooker hood to a kitchen cupboard, use the screws provided.

5. 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.

Two extra ‘security screws’ are used to ensure the

unit is secure and isn’t accidentally pushed o the

keyhole slots.

6. If you are rear mounting the unit, drill all four holes and t the wall plugs, but don’t t the two ‘security

screws’ until the unit is in place.

If you are top mounting the unit; drill a 130mm diametre and four 5mm diametre holes as per the picture

or the card template. Using the 4 × 35mm screws; washers and M4 nuts to x the cooker hood to a kitchen

cupboard.

7. Check that your xings are correctly located, by

temporarily tting the cooker hood. If correct,

remove the protective lm (if available).

8. Fit the air outlet adaptor in the hole in the cooker

hood. 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.
