Use & Care

Dear Customer,

Thank you for buying our range hood. Please follow diagrams on pages 6-9 for proper

installation, and carefully read the instructions below for more on installation, plus

information on optimum use and maintenance.

Note: The figures mentioned in this manual are on pages 6 through 12.

INSTALLATION

Hood installation on walls (pages 6-8)

Warning: Consult local regulations regarding fumes outlets. Do not connect

the hood to a fume, ventilation or hot air duct. Confirm that room ventilation is

appropriate with the local authorities. Make sure the maximum air extraction flow

rate for the appliances in the room does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). The room

must have adequate ventilation if an extractor hood is used simultaneously with

appliances that run on gas or other fuels. The evacuated air must be extracted

through ducts that are used for evacuating fumes from appliances that run on

gas or other fuels. Regulations regarding air extraction must be complied with.

WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO

PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

a) Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s)

in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated

construction.

b) Suicient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases

through the flue (chimney) or fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting.

Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards

such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and

the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers

(ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

c) When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring

and other hidden utilities.

d) Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.

•Use rigid metal ductwork with a minimum diameter of 150 mm (about 4¾”) to evacuate

fumes outside.

• The above restrictions do not apply to hoods with no fumes outlet to outside

(recirculation system with activated charcoal filter).

• Install the hood in line with the instructions on the template provided.

• Use only with range hood cord-connection kits that have been investigated and
