INSTALLING THE CHIMNEY HOOD

CLEARANCE HEIGHTS

The chimney hood is designed to be fitted over a cooking appliance. A minimum clearance height of 650mm (25˚ins) is required when installed above a built-in electric hob, or 700mm (27˚ins) when installed above a built-in gas hob.

When installed between adjoining wall cabinets, the wall cabinets must not overhang the hob and the distance between the underside of the cabinet and the worktop must be 450mmm (17˚ins), a gap of 50mm (2”) must be maintained either side of the hob.

This chimney hood must not be installed above a cooking

appliance with a high level grill.

FITTING THE WALL

BRACKETS

1.Draw a vertical line on the wall from the centre of the cooking appliance up to the ceiling, using a spirit level and marking pen. This is to ensure the correct vertical alignment of the appliance.

2.Draw a horizontal line through the vertical at 270mm. Mark the centre positions for the lower bracket fixing screws (1) at 110mm either side of the vertical line. Ensure that the distance between the lowest point of the hood and the cooking appliance beneath meet the clearance requirements quoted above.

3.Draw a horizontal line through the vertical at 45mm from the ceiling or from the maximum height of the chimney. Mark the centre positions for the upper bracket fixing screws (2) at 80mm either side of the vertical line.

4.Draw a horizontal line through the vertical at X. X is the distance between the centre of the top and bottom fixing holes on the

upper chimney stack. Mark the centre positions for the middle bracket fixing screws (3) at 95mm either side of the vertical line.

5.Drill the holes for the fixing screws using an 8mm masonry drill and fix the wall brackets using the plastic Rawl plugs and 44mm screws provided. Ensure the lower bracket (1) is fitted with the lugs

at the bottom.
