INSTALLING THE COOKER HOOD
Extraction
The charcoal lter is not required in this mode and
should be removed.
Ducting
The ducting used must be 150mm (6ins), or
125mm (5ins) in diameter.
If possible duct through the wall immediately above
the hood body.
For the best performance use the shortest possible
duct run and the minimum number of bends.
Where exible ducting is tted it should not be
turned through very tight bends as this may impair
the performance of the hood.
It is recommenmded a maximum length of 3 metres,
o
to be installed, to be reduced 1 metre for each 90
bend installed in the ducting run.
If the distance is greater than 3 metres the ef cency
of the hood could be impaired.
The diameter of the ducting spigot on the top of the
hood body item 1 is 150mm (6).
When using 125mm (5) ducting it will be
necessary to install the ducting adapter item 9 to
the 150mm (6) outlet on the top of the hood body
and the 120mm to 125mm ducting collar item 10
(supplied).
If the room where the cooker hood is to
be used contains a fuel burning appliance
such as a central heating boiler, then its ue
must be of the room sealed or balanced ue
type.
If other types of ue or appliances are tted
ensure that there is an adequate supply of
air to the room.
The cooker ducting (extraction mode) must
never be connected to central heating ues,
radiators or water heaters etc.
Electrical Connection and Working
Test
Before tting the chimney to the canopy make the
electrical connection as described in the section
titled ELECTRICAL CONNECTION.
When the electrical connection has been made, test
the three speed fan and worktop illumination.
