Ascertain the desired installation height of the rangehood. When installing the rangehood, the lower edge of the unit must be a minimum of 600 mm (650 mm for gas cooker) above the cooking surface. The recommended position for the hood is 650 mm above the cooktop. Any installation above 750 mm will compromise the extraction performance. A = 600 min (electric cook top) A = 650 min (gas cook top) Not less than 650 mm Gas Burner Fig.2 Positioning Ducting options Some authorities require rangehoods to be vented outside. Attention should be given to ensure that any applicable regulations concerning the discharge of exhaust air is fulfilled. Top ducting through roof Rear ducted Side ducting Fig.3 Ducting options 285 x 85 mm rectangular, or 150 mm diameter round ducting (using a rectangular-to-round adaptor) can be used in conjunction with this model. For optimal efficiency, use smooth-walled ducting for reduced noise and increased airflow. Flexible ducting should only be used as a last resort. Note: we recommend an Easy Fit by Fisher & Paykel or a UNIDUCT ducting system, products that have been designed to expel air efficiently. Installation instructions Preparing the rangehood for installation Ensure the overhead cabinets are built according to Fig.5 (below). Before drilling any holes, check that the area behind the surface to be drilled is clear of any electrical cables or pipes etc. Recirculated installation Knockouts (remove for ducted only) If the rangehood is to be installed as a recirculated hood, first ensure the cabinets are built according to Fig. 5 below: 1 Do not remove the knockouts shown in Fig.4. These are removed for ducted options only. 2 Remove Cover Tape “A”. See Fig.4. Note: for recirculation, please purchase a charcoal filter (R103794C). Please proceed to steps 3 and 4 below. Ducted installation If the rangehood is to be installed as a ducted hood: 1 Remove the appropriate knockout to suit rear or top venting, as shown in Fig.4 Fig.4 Preparing for install 2 Do not remove Cover Tape “A”. See Fig.4. This is removed for recirculating only. 3 If an 80mm handle is not installed, remove front fascia “B” by undoing the 3 screws on the fascia (see Fig. 4). 4 Replace front fascia “B” with a replacement front panel “C”, constructed of same or similar material as the surrounding cupboard doors. See Fig. 5 for height of panel. Mounting the rangehood The rangehood can be mounted in two ways, top or sides. Before commencement, unpack the rangehood and check that it functions correctly. Mounting to underside of cupboard Fix the rangehood to a shelf mounted at the right height in your wall units, by drilling 4 holes, 5 mm in diameter, (see Fig.6) and fixing with the 4 screws supplied (found in the bag labelled “TOP FIXING”). Filtered air Cooking fumes Fig.5 Panel heights Wall Cupboard Door For top ducting cut hole to suit size Dimensions shown are for UNIDUCT Drill 5 mm holes Fig.6 Mounting to underside of cabinetry Installation instructions Mounting to cabinetry sides See Installation sheet provided. When mounting to the cabinetry sides, please ensure the correct dowels and screws are used. These can be found in the bag labelled “SIDE FIXING”. Note: using the incorrect screws for the installed mounting method may cause damage to the product. Fix rangehood to your wall units, with 2 screws in each side into the vertical panels. To do this: 1 Slide out the drawer and remove filter. You will see two mounting holes running through the moulded sides (see Fig.7). 2 Remove the thin plastic skin (A) from each side fixing hole. An 8 mm diameter drill bit is recommended. 3 Position slideout (ensuring unit is level) and fix in place using screws and hollow dowels through each side fixing hole (see Fig.8). (Check screw length with thickness of cabinet panels). The rangehood’s plug can be easily plugged into the nearest wall socket, or if connected directly into the house wiring, a registered electrician is required.

Fan switch: the fan can be run at different speeds depending on the cooking requirements. Cleaning and maintenance Caution! Never use abrasive or oil based liquid cleaners. General maintenance The manufacturer is not liable for any damage caused by not following these instructions. The rangehood should be cleaned regularly using warm water with soap or mild liquid detergents. This ensures that no build-up of grease occurs as these deposits are corrosive. Do not use abrasives or harsh detergents/cleaning fluids. Note: in areas of high humidity and coastal environments cleaning should be carried out frequently. Aluminium filter The grease filter must be periodically cleaned (at least every two months). Remove the ...
