Please read the entire set of instructions before installing the rangehood.
This rangehood is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the rangehood. There must be adequate ventilation of the room when the rangehood is used at the same time as appliances burning gas or other fuels. (A partial vacuum in the room could result in too high a concentration of gas in the air).
You must read the details concerning the method and frequency of cleaning. There is a fire risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions. Do not flambé under the rangehood.
Exhaust air must not be discharged into an existing flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
The minimum distance between the cooktop surface and the filters of the rangehood shall be 600 mm, or 650 mm if installed over a gas cooktop.
Attention should be given to ensure that any applicable regulations concerning the discharge of exhaust air is fulfilled.

Always switch the power off prior to installation, servicing or cleaning the rangehood. Never use the rangehood without the filters in place.

A power outlet should be within 750 mm of the motor assembly and can be either on the wall, behind the chimney or in the ceiling.

The socket must be accessible, or have an accessible isolating switch, to enable the end user to isolate the rangehood from the power for the purpose of internal cleaning or maintenance.
