The hood is fixed using the holes located in the rim around the base of the casing visible when the inlet grille is in the open position.
Support the grille panel with one hand and draw down on the two grey handles (A) which are located on each side of the grille with the other hand.
Raise the hood into the cut out and mark the positions for the fixing screws. Pilot drill the fixing holes and fit the hood.
Venting
The hood is more effective when used in the extraction setting (ducted to the outside). Venting kits maybe purchased through
your retailer or DIY store, and must be ducted to an outside vent of 125mm (5”) minimum.
The ducting used must be manufactured from fire retardant material.
When the hood is ducted externally the charcoal filters must be removed.
Recirculation
If you are using the hood for recirculating, ensure the charcoal filters are in position following the instructions below.
KInserting the Charcoal Filters
1.Remove the grille panel, support the grille with one hand and draw down on the two grey handles (located at each side of the grille).
2.The charcoal filters are handed and should be fitted one at a time.
3.Insert one end of the filter into the slots in the fan housing, then lower the other and until the tab engages the slot in the casing.
Extraction
The charcoal filters are not required with this system and should be removed. To do this reverse the procedure described in Inserting the ‘Charcoal Filters’.
