Height of ventilation hood
| INSTALLATION DIMENSIONS inches (mm) | |
| M Installation heightDuctedRecirculation | min. 24 1/6" (627) - max. 43 1/6" (1034)min. 26 1/8" (682) - max. 43 1/6" (1034) |
| N Height top of cooking surfaceto base of product | min. 26" (660) - max. recommended 36" (915) |
This ventilation hood must be installed no lower than the minimum height indicated in the table above. Minimum installation height may be greater if required by the cooktop manufacturer or safety and warning section of this user guide. Installation at the minimum height will improve the efficiency of capturing cooking odors, grease and smoke. Installation at the maximum height improves user ergonomics by offering increased head room.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork. Do not use flexible plastic ducting
CAUTION!
To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside—do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.
Venting options
Attention should be given to ensure that any applicable regulations concerning the discharge of exhaust air are fulfilled.
The ventilation hood can be installed to operate with the exhaust air ducted externally from the kitchen, or installed to operate with the exhaust air recirculating within the kitchen.
Ducted
For ducted installation it is recommended that 6'' (152 mm) diameter, rigid or semi-rigid ducting is used. This will require a 6516 (160 mm) (min) round hole in the ceiling or wall. Care should be taken to position the hole correctly.
For optimal efficiency use the shortest and straightest duct route possible and use rigid or semi-rigid ducting for reduced noise and increased airflow. Flexible metal ducting should only be used as a last resort (ie in difficult installations) and if used ensure that it is straight and smooth and extended as much as possible.
Recirculating
To enable the product to operate with the air recirculating, purchase a recirculation diverter and carbon filters or recirculation kit (refer to the 'Parts and accessories' section). This recirculation diverter is required to channel the air out the side vents at the top of the chimney and the carbon filters are required to remove odors.
Note: a ducting hole is not required in the wall or ceiling if the ventilation hood is installed to operate with exhaust air recirculating.
WARNING!
This product is heavy and requires two persons for installation.
- Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards.
IMPORTANT!
Wear gloves to protect against sharp edges.

IMPORTANT!
The ventilation hood may stop working during an electrostatic discharge (eg lightning). Switch off the electricity supply to the ventilation hood and reconnect after one minute.
WARNING!
Unplug or disconnect the appliance from the power supply before servicing or cleaning.
IMPORTANT!
- Never use abrasive or oil based cleaners.
- Wear gloves to protect against sharp edges.
Maintenance
The ventilation hood should be cleaned regularly using a mild, liquid detergent and a clean soft cloth to avoid a build-up of grease occurring. Avoid the use of corrosive chemicals, abrasive cleaning products, hard brushes and steel wool pads. Grease deposits are corrosive which can cause damage to your ventilation hood.
Note: in areas of high humidity or coastal environments, cleaning should be carried out more frequently.
Aluminum filters
- Depending on use, and at least once a month, the aluminum filters should be removed and cleaned with hot soapy water or in a dishwasher.
- If washed in a dishwasher, the filter should be placed in an upright position to prevent food from falling on them.
After rinsing and drying, refit the filters.
Note: some discoloration of the frames may occur.
Removing the aluminum filters:
① Pull the relative catch, tilting the filter downwards until it disengages from the supports.
② Reverse these instructions when refitting the filters.

WARNING!
When replacing the bulb, let the bulb cool, and assure that power to the ventilation hood has been turned off. Use new bulbs according to that indicated on the ventilation hood nameplate.
Carbon filters-for use in recirculation mode
Active carbon filters are disposable items designed to remove grease and odors from cooking vapors before the air is channeled back into the kitchen. The active carbon filters must be replaced periodically to work properly, at least once every three months, depending on the frequency with which the ventilation hood is used.
Note: fully saturated carbon filters can become a barrier to air movement therefore limiting ventilation hood performance. In the event of fire, grease laden filters could be flammable and therefore regular replacement is recommended.
Replacing the light bulb
Note: replacement bulbs are not covered by warranty.
① Remove the aluminum filters.
② Lightly push the light bulb up and rotate anti-clockwise to remove.
③ Replace light bulb with a light bulb no more powerful than that specified.
④ Refit the aluminum filters.
