5Drill holes and secure the rangehood to the wall. Depending on the wall type (concrete, drywall etc) drill/screw appropriate fittings in the two locations just marked. The rangehood should now be able to be hung on these bolts/ screws through the two keyholes in the hood.

6Create additional means of attachment. Keyholes alone are insufficient means of attachment. Drill two extra holes in the back panel, put screws in with an anchor (if required) to ensure proper attachment and fix the rangehood by these screws as well, as shown in Fig.6. Ensure all fixings are secure.

7If ducting externally, assemble and fit ducting as per manufacturer’s instruction.

Optional: If desired, the one-way butterfly valve can now be fitted to the exit opening of the rangehood by simply snapping the two pieces into place.

8Test the operation of the rangehood. Plug the rangehood in and test its operation on all speed levels. This will ensure that any imperfections in the installation, such as unwanted sounds or lack of suction can be addressed before the flue is in place. Over 95% of service calls are a result of faulty installation. Please be aware that in the event of a service call for a faulty installation, you will be charged as this is not covered under the manufacturer’s warranty.

9Position and secure the flue. Secure the top mounting bracket at the highest possible point on the ceiling using a single screw through the supplied bracket.

Ensure all ducting is fitted and electrical connections are secured correctly and switched on. Place the bottom part of the flue onto the rangehood and slide the upper flue piece inside the lower piece so the tabs “hug” the folded edge of the flue.

Raise the upper part of the flue to the required height and, using the four screws supplied, secure the upper flue to the bracket on the wall.

Installation is now complete.
