Wall Vent Kit, Mounting Height, Fixing to the wall

Installing your Cooker Hood

Wall Vent Kit:

For connecting the hood either directly through a wall or in conjunction with a duct- ing pipe, we recommend the use of a Wall Vent Kit. A 3m extension pipe is also available. Both of these are 100mm diameter and may be obtained from your nearest retailer or the Genuine Parts and Accessories Mail Order Hotline (see back cover) and must be used where there is a cavity wall.

MOUNTING

Mounting Height:

Your Cooker Hood is suitable for wall mounting or fixing to the underside of a wall cupboard. In either case the underneath of the hood should be 65cm above an electric hob,

75cm above a gas hob, 40-45cm above a high level grill/top oven.

For the best results, the hood should be mounted as near as possible to the minimum recommended height.

WARNING: The fan motor of this appliance incorporates a thermal cut-out device which will operate if the hood is installed below the minimum recommended heights listed above, or if the motor becomes over- heated. If the cut-out device is activated, switch off the fan motor and allow the hood to cool.

The cut-out device will reset itself when the fan motor has cooled significantly.

NOTE: This hood has been designed and approved for installation over an electric hob with a maximum input of 7kW or a gas hob with a maximum input of 10kW when fitted in accordance with the heights recommended above.

A template is enclosed for both wall and under-cupboard fixing.

Fixing to the cabinet:

Ensure that the cabinet is securely fixed to the wall, use 4 screws supplied and proceed as follows:

Make holes at the bottom of the cabinet using the template supplied. Fit the four 4.2 x 35mm screws supplied, in the holes, from inside the cabinet (Fig.7).
