MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning isolate the cooker hood from the mains supply.
The cooker hood must be kept clean, as a build up of grease or fat can be a fire hazard.
External Cleaning
Wipe the cooker hood frequently with warm soapy water using a mild detergent.

Always wear protective gloves when cleaning the hood.
Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners.
Never use excessive amounts of water when cleaning particularly around the control panel.
Synthetic Paper Grease Filter
The filter has saturation indicators, which are small squares made from a series of dots. When the white paper inside the squares becomes saturated with grease the coloured dots start to run and spread across the paper, indicating that the filter has reached saturation point and must be replaced.

To replace the synthetic paper grease filter
- Open the visor.
- Press inwardly on the two slide catches and lower the grille to the stop position. Raise the front edge of the grille through a 45^ angle until it detaches itself from the guides.
- Carefully ease out the metal wire retaining clips.
- Clean the metal grille and clips before replacing the grease filter.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

WARNING: DOUBLE INSULATED DO NOT EARTH
Electrical Requirements
Any permanent electrical installation must comply with the latest I.E.E. Regulations and local Electricity Board regulations. For your own safety this should be undertaken by a qualified electrician e.g. your local Electricity Board, or a contractor who is on the roll of the National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting (NICEIC).
Electrical Connection
Before connecting to the mains supply ensure that the mains voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate inside the cooker hood.
This appliance is fitted with a 2 core mains cable and must be permanently connected to the electricity supply via a double-pole switch having 3mm minimum contact gap on each pole. A Switched Fuse Connection Unit to BS1363 Part 4, fitted with a 3 Amp fuse, is a recommended mains supply connection accessory to ensure compliance with the Safety Requirements applicable to fixed wiring instructions.
This appliance conforms to BS 800: 1988 and EEC Directive No. 78 308 regarding suppression of radio and television interference.
INSTALLING THE COOKER HOOD
Please ensure that when the appliance is installed it is easily accessible to an engineer in the event of a breakdown.

All installations must comply with the local authorities requirements for the discharge of exhaust air.
Incorrect installation may affect the safety of this cooker hood.
Installation Requirements

Before installation check the wall to which the cooker hood is to be fitted for electric cables, water pipes or gas.
If it is necessary to fix the hood to a hollow construction plaster or partition board structure then it should be sufficiently reinforced to be quite rigid in the area of the cooker hood mounting brackets, and the appropriate rawl plugs used for this type of fixing (not supplied).
Ducting
The ducting must be fire retardant 100mm (4ins) in diameter and the length should be no more than:
3 metres with one 90° bend
2 metres with two 90° bends
Bends of more than 90^ will reduce the efficiency of the hood and reduce the airflow.
Clearance Height
The cooker hood is designed to be fitted over a cooking appliance at the clearance heights stated, providing the maximum output of the appliance beneath does not exceed the maximums quoted in the Technical Specifications.
If the output of the appliance below the cooker hood exceeds the maximum outputs quoted, please refer to the cooker manufacturer's installation instructions.
Clearance Height
A clearance height of 650mm (25 1/2") is required when installed above a built-in electric hob, or 700mm (27 1/2") when installed above a built-in gas hob.
A clearance height of 685mm (27") is required when installed above a slot-in electric cooker, or 787mm (30 1/2") when installed above a slot-in gas cooker.
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 450mm. If the height of the wall cabinet is less than 450mm, a gap of 50mm must be maintained either side of the hob.

This cooker hood must not be installed above a cooking appliance with a high level grill.
Unpacking
The fittings supplied to install this cooker hood can be found with the instruction book inside the packaging.
The fixing kit comprises:
2 - Wall fixing brackets
6 - Decor panel fixing screws
4 - Security fixing screws

Fitting the Wall Brackets
- Use the paper template provided to mark the hole positions on the wall for the bracket fixing screws (not supplied).
- Check the hole distances are correct with a tape measure as stated on the template.
- At this stage it is important to allow 15mm (1/2") clear space above the cooker hood to enable it to be hooked onto the brackets and for subsequent removal for decorating or servicing.

B: Built-in Gas hob: 700mm clearance
C: Slot-in Electric Cooker: 685mm clearance
D: Slot-in Gas Cooker: 787mm clearance
Venting
The hood is more effective when used in the extraction setting (ducted to the outside).
Venting kits may be purchased through your retailer or DIY store, and must be ducted to an outside vent of 100mm (4") minimum.

The ducting used must be manufactured from fire retardant material.
When the hood is ducted externally the charcoal filter must be removed.

To Fit the Ducting
- Open the grille by pressing inwardly on the actuator bolts at each side of the grille, while pulling the grille panel downwards. The grille panel will slide into the intermediate position. Raise the lower edge of the grille forward through 45^ angle until the grille becomes detached from the slide mechanism.
- Align the flat sides on the spigot with the recesses in the top of the casing. Insert and snap fix the spigot into the casing.
- Connect the ducting to the spigot and make an air tight seal.
- Remove the charcoal filter.
Recirculation
The charcoal filter (optional extra) must be fitted for recirculation.

OPEN High speed
Fitting the Cooker Hood to the Wall
- Fit the brackets with the round ends facing downwards using the plastic rawl plugs and screws provided.
- Once the brackets are secured, lift the hood squarely to the wall slightly higher than the brackets. Lower the cooker hood until it is located onto the two brackets.

Ensure that the cooker hood is correctly located before letting go.
-
By loosening the screws in the extension arm the hood can be aligned with the front of the adjoining wall cabinets.
-
The hood should be secured on each side to the adjoining wall cabinets using the 4 x 15mm (1/2 ins) security screws provided.
-
Adjust the lower spacer panel at the rear of the hood to close the gap to the wall.
Decor Panel
The dimensions of the door panel should be 59.6cm (23 1/2 ins) wide by 35cm (13 3/4 ins) in height.

Fitting a Decor Panel to the Hood Visor
- Remove the complete visor assembly by pulling open into the operating position, simultaneously press down on the release catch located behind the visor on the left hand side of the casing.
- Using the paper template provided, mark the screw hole positions on the reverse side of the decor panel. Ensure that the paper template is aligned with the top edge of the decor panel.

natural_image

Failure to align the top edge of the decor panel with the template will prevent the visor from opening when installed.
- Before drilling, use a tape measure to check the distances of the screw holes (as given on the template). The template may have altered due to dampness after manufacture.
- Use the 6 x 15mm (1/2 ins) round headed screws provided to attach the decor panel to the hood visor.

To Refit the Hood with Decor Panel Attached
- Insert the upper visor guides into the upper track in the front of the casing.
- Hinge down the bottom edge of the visor and insert the lower guides into the track in the bottom of the casing.
- Push the visor in until an audible click is heard.
- The visor can now be opened and closed in its normal function.
Adjustment
If a heavy door is fitted or if the visor will not stay closed it may be necessary to make an adjustment to the closing mechanism of the visor.
Insert a small flat bladed screw driver through the hole (the friction assembly) on either side of the casing indicated by the letter "V" and turn clockwise to apply pressure on the guide. Both friction assemblies should be adjusted by the same amount to ensure the visor opens smoothly.

Care should be taken when removing the visor with the decor panel for cleaning or servicing, as the visor is now extremely heavy and should it be dropped, it could damage the appliance beneath and adjoining work surfaces.
