NUTZUNG

Thank you for buying a Robin product which has been manufactured to the highest quality standards to meet your requirements.

We recommend you carefully read this booklet in which you will find instructions for installation, hints for use and maintenance.

The Instructions for Use apply to several versions of this appliance. Accordingly, you may find descriptions of individual features that do not apply to your specific appliance.

1 ELECTRICAL

• This cooker hood is fitted with a 3-core mains cable with a standard 10/16A earthed plug.
• Alternatively the hood can be connected to the mains supply via a double-pole switch having 3mm minimum contact gap on each pole.
• Before connecting to the mains supply ensure that the mains voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate inside the cooker hood.
  Technical Specification: Voltage 220-240 V, single phase 50Hz / 220V - 60Hz

2 INSTALLATION ADVICE

• Ensure the cooker hood is fitted in compliance with the recommended fixing heights.
• To ensure the safe operation of this cooker hood, we recommend that the hood should not be fitted below 65cm (for electric) or (70cm for gas) the measurements taken from the surface of the cooking appliance to the underside of the cooker hood.
  It is a possible fire risk if the hood is not sited as recommended.
• To ensure the best results, the cooking fumes should be able to rise naturally towards the inlet grilles on the underside of the cooker hood and the cooker hood should be positioned away from doors and windows, which will create turbulence.

Ducting
- If the room where the hood is to be used contains a fuel-burning appliance such as a central heating boiler then its flue must be of the room sealed or balanced flue type.
- If other types of flue or appliances are fitted ensure that there is an adequate supply of fresh air to the room. Ensure the kitchen is fitted with an airbrick, which should have a cross-sectional measurement equivalent to the diameter of the ducting being fitted, if not larger.
- The ducting system for this cooker hood must not be connected to any existing ventilation system, which is being used for any other purposes or to a mechanically controlled ventilation ducting.
- The ducting used must be made from fire retardant materials and the correct diameter must be used, as incorrect sized ducting will affect the performance of this cooker hood.
- When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with other appliances supplied with energy other than electricity, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0.04 mbar to prevent the fumes from combustion being drawn back into the room.
- The appliance is for domestic use only and should not be operated by children or people who are infirm without supervision.
This appliance must be positioned so that the wall socket is accessible.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

3 FITTING

Any permanent electrical installation must comply with the latest regulations concerning this type of installation and a qualified electrician must carry out the work. Non-compliance could cause serious accidents or injury and would deem the manufacturers guarantee null and void.

IMPORTANT - The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code :

green / yellow : earth

blue : neutral

brown : live

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows.

• The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol 1色 or coloured green or green and yellow.
• The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black.
• The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.

ATTENTION: Do not forget to use adequate plugs to the support brackets. Enquire after the manufacturers. Do an embedding if necessary. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility in case of a faulty hanging due to the drilling and the setting up of plugs.

1) Draw a vertical line onto the wall from the centre of the cooking appliance up to the ceiling, using a spirit level and a marker pen as illustrated in Fig. 1 & 2 - item 1. This is to ensure the correct alignment of the chimney hood.
2) Place one of the brackets item 2 on the wall about 1 or 2mm from the ceiling or from the upper limit, aligning its centre (notches) on the vertical line. Mark the two eyelet holes of the bracket onto the wall. Place the other bracket item 2 on the wall, aligning it with the vertical line, at a distance X = 460 mm measured as in Fig. 2 equal to the height of the upper chimney stack item 7a provided with the hood. The X measurement may have different values, according to the available heights of the upper chimney stack. Drill the holes for the 2 fixing brackets using an 8mm masonry bit. Fix the chimney brackets item 2 using the 4.2 × 44.4mm screws and rawl plugs supplied.

3) Drilling fixing holes 1 (Fig. 1 & 2):

Mark a point on the vertical line at a distance from the cooking appliances of:

d = 956 mm (Measurement without splashback).

d = height of the splashback +306mm (Measurement with splashback).

The distance H is the minimum height in mm from the cooking appliances to the bottom edge item 3 of the front panel of the hood.

At the point marked, draw a horizontal line parallel to the cooking appliances. Drill two holes 1 in the wall using an 8 mm drill bit and insert the rawl plugs and screws into the holes 1 (4.2 x 44.4 screws). Fix the screws, leaving a space of 5-6 mm required to hook up the canopy (Fig. 3a). Small adjustments can be made using the hood adjustment screws (see Fitting the canopy). The hood should have a maximum excursion of 16 mm.
Splashback (optional): When a splashback is to be fitted, the distance between the hood and the cooking appliances will be determined by the height of the splashback item B and whether or not there is a raised back on the worktop. The splashback is to be installed before installing the canopy. If the splashback is to be fixed to the wall using both the top and bottom fixing holes, Care must be taken to ensure that the splashback is fitted at the correct height before fixing the base units or at least the worktop covering them. As this is a complex operation, it should only be undertaken by the technician installing the kitchen units or by a competent person who knows the final dimensions of the units.
4) Fixing the canopy: Before starting to fix the canopy it will be necessary to adjust the support brackets by turning the adjustment screws Vr in a clockwise direction until their reach their limit (Fig.3b). Hook the canopy onto the two size 4.2× 44.4 screws 1 fitted as described above (Fig.3a). Level the hood by turning the adjustment screws and then locking the screws 1.
5) Ducting:

The hood is more effective when used in the extraction mode (ducted to the outside). When the cooker hood is ducted to the outside, charcoal filters are not required. The ducting used must be 150mm (6 INS), rigid circular pipe and must be manufactured from fire retardant material, produced to BS.476 or DIN 4102-B1. Wherever possible use rigid circular pipe which has a smooth interior, rather than the expanding concertina type ducting.

Maximum length of ducting run:

• 4 metres with 1 × 90^ bend.
• 3 metres with 2 × 90^ bends.
• 2 metres with 3 × 90^ bends.

The above assumes our 150~mm (6 INS) ducting is being installed. Please note ducting components and ducting kits are optional accessories and have to be ordered, they are not automatically supplied with the chimney hood.

IN THE EXTRACTION MODE:

a. Connect the ducting 150mm (6 INS) over the round outlet item 6 on top of the canopy and secure the connections with appropriate clamping rings or adhesive tape (Fig. 5).
b. Remove the grease filters (see paragraph Maintenance) being sure that the connector of the mains cable is correctly inserted in the socket placed on the side of the fan. Before fitting the chimney to the canopy make the electrical connection as described in the section titled ELECTRICAL. When the electrical connection has been made, test the lights and the fan motor.

c. Upper chimney stack

• Slightly widen the two sides of the upper chimney stack (Fig.5 - Item 7a) and hook them behind the brackets item 2 making sure that they are well seated.
• Secure the sides to the brackets using the 4 screws 12c (2,9 x 9,5) supplied.
  d. Lower chimney stack
• Slightly widen the two sides of the chimney stack (Fig. 5 - Item 7b) and hook them between the upper chimney stack and the wall, making sure that they are well seated.
  Fix the lower part laterally to the hood body using the 2 screws 12c (2,9 x 9,5) supplied.

IN THE RECIRCULATION MODE:

a. Fit the recirculation spigot bracket item 4 onto the upper chimney wall bracket using the same fixing screws (Fig.7 - item 2).Put the spigot item R into the spigot bracket item 4- Insert the connection extension pieces laterally item G in the spigot. Make sure that the outlet of the extension pieces item G is horizontally and vertically aligned with the chimney outlets.
b. Connect the ducting 150mm (6 INS) not provided between motors item 6 and the recirculation spigot and secure the connections with appropriate clamping rings or adhesive tape.
c. Remove the grease filters (see paragraph Maintenance) being sure that the connector of the feeding cable is correctly inserted in the socket placed on the side of the fan. Before fitting the chimney to the canopy make the electrical connection as described in the section titled ELECTRICAL. When the electrical connection has been made, test the lights and the fan motor.
d. Remove the metal grease filters and insert the charcoal filter into the base of the motor housing and secure the filter with two metal securing straps item A as illustrated in Fig. 8.

e. Upper chimney stack

• Slightly widen the two sides of the upper chimney stack (Fig.7 - Item 7a) and hook them behind the brackets item 2 making sure that they are well seated.
• Secure the sides to the brackets using the 4 screws 12c (2,9 x 9,5) supplied.
