GENERAL GUIDELINES

Before installing and /or using the cooker hood, please read these instructions carefully.

Before installing the cooker hood make sure the volt- age (V), frequency (Hz) indicated on the serial num- ber plate and specifications on the rating plate on the inside of the cooker hood correspond to the voltage and frequency of the mains supply.

INSTALLATION

The cooker hood must not be installed and connect- ed to flues where other appliances are installed and which run off other energy supplies other than elec- tricity (water heaters - boilers - cookers, range/gas etc). The extraction hood requires a 125mm extrac- tion pipe connected directly to the outside with an opening of a minimum cross section of 150cm2.

The hood must be installed with a distance of 650- 750mm between the cooker top/hob and the extrac- tion hood. The cooker hood must not be installed above cookers with eye-level grills.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

This cooker hood is designed for permanent fixture. Connect to mains supply. Check voltage and fre- quency given on the rating plate located on the inside of the hood. Connect the mains cable to a power socket or to a double pole switch with a con- tact gap of at least 3mm. The mains cable (type H05VV- F 2x 0.75 mm2) is connected to terminals marked with the letters L (power line) and N (neutral) mounted on the hood and is secured in position by a cable gland. The mains cable must be connected to a suitable and easily accessible fixed power point. As the electrical installation must comply with the laws and regulations in force only a qualified and authorised electrician must install the hood including connecting it to a double pole switch with a contact gap of at least 3mm.

Connect the mains cable if provided with a plug to a power socket. The user must have access to the power socket to be able to connect and disconnect the plug once the hood is mounted and fixed or the mains cable can be plugged into a socket with a dou- ble pole switch with a contact gap of at least 3mm.

The manufacturer will not be responsible if the gov- erning health and safety laws are not observed which permit safe and correct use of the hood and electrical connections.
