INSTALLING THE CHIMNEY HOOD
CLEARANCE HEIGHTS
The chimney hood is designed to be fitted over a cooking appliance. A minimum clearance height of 650mm (251/2ins) is required when installed above a
If fitting a Rangemaster splashback, fit the splash back after the cooker is installed but before the cooker hood. Measure 328 up from the top of the thick part of the splash (dimen- sion ‘B’) for the hood fixing holes. If not fitting a splashback measure 1000 (dimension ‘A’) from the top of the cooker flue trim.
When installed between adjoining wall cabi- nets, the wall cabinets must not overhang the hob and the distance between the underside of the cabinet and worktop must be 450mm (17½ins), and a gap of 50mm (2ins) must be
maintained either side of the hob.
This chimney hood must not be in- stalled above a cooking appliance with a
high level grill.
FITTING THE WALL BRACKETS
1.Draw a vertical line on the wall as illustrated, from the centre of the cooking appliance up to the ceiling using a spirit level and marker pen. This is to ensure the correct vertical
alignment of the various components during installation.
2. Place one of the brackets (2) against the wall, centrally over the vertical line approximately 2mm from the ceiling or from the upper most fixing point. Align the bracket using a spirit level and mark the two keyhole centre positions for the upper bracket fixing screws on the wall.
3. Place the second bracket (2) against the wall, centrally over the vertical line at distance X. (X being determined by the measurement of the upper chimney). Align the bracket using a spirit level and mark the two keyhole centre positions for the middle bracket fixing screws on the wall.
