OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The cooker hood functions are controlled by two slide switches and a change-over slider control. The two slide switches, which are located on the right hand side in the front fascia panel, control the fan speed and worktop illumination.
The change-over slider control is located inside the cooker hood behind the inlet grille immediately in front of the lamp assembly.
Ensure the hood is plugged in, or wired in and the power supply is switched on.
The switch marked with the lamp symbol and numbered 0-1 controls the worktop lighting. Position -1 indicates the light is operating.
The switch marked with the fan symbol and numbered 0-1-2-3 controls the fan speed, -1 Low, -2 Normal and -3 Boost.
Position -1 Should be selected when simmering or when using one pan.
Position -2 Should be selected for normal cooking up to four pans.
Position -3 Should be selected when frying or cooking food with strong odour.
In the recirculation position, slider towards the charcoal filter, air enters the cooker hood, passes through the grease and charcoal filter and out through the holes in front of the casing top panel.
To convert the hood from extraction to recirculation open the metal inlet grille and slide the change-over control to the right. Remove the thumb screw from the motor support. Take the charcoal filter and place it over the motor support and secure by passing the thumb screw through the hole in the filter and into the captivated nut in the centre of the motor support.
In the ducting position, with the slider away from the charcoal filter, the air passes through the grease filter and out through ducting to the atmosphere. When the ducting position is selected, the (optional) charcoal filter is not required.
NOTE: The hood is more effective when used in the extraction (ducting) mode, therefore this position should be selected during the warmer months of the year when no room heating is
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Cont'd
required. When the room is being heated if the recirculation position is selected heat will not be wasted.
To obtain the best performance it is advisable to switch on the cooker hood a few minutes before you start cooking and leave it running for 15 minutes after finishing.

This cooker hood has been designed for use fixed beneath a wall cabinet or directly onto the wall using the special brackets supplied and should be installed in accordance with the following fitting instructions.
The hood can be used to extract odours to the outside or to recirculate the air within the kitchen after passing the contaminated air through a (optional) cleansing charcoal filter.
The hood is convertible to either function by the movement of a change-over slider control. This enables the cooker hood when installed in the extraction mode, to be converted to recirculation during the winter months.

This appliance conforms to BS.800:1988 and EEC Directive No 87/308 regarding suppression of radio and television interference.
INSTALLATION
Unpacking
Care should be taken when unpacking the cooker hood to ensure that the fixing kit, ducting spigot, blanking plate and literature pack are retained with the hood.
The fixing kit comprises:
1- fixing template
2- wall fixing brackets
4- plastic rawl plugs
4- fixing screws
2- shakeproof washers
2- security nuts
Positioning
When installed above an electric cooking appliance the minimum distance between the surface of the hob elements and the lower grille of the cooker hood must be 65cm (25 1/2").
When installed above a gas cooking appliance the minimum distance between the surface of the hob pan supports and the lower grille of the cooker hood must be 70cm (27 1/2").
When installed above a cooking appliance with a high level grill the minimum distance between the upper surface of the grill and the lower grille of the cooker hood must be 45cm (17 3/4").
The distance between the underside of adjoining wall cabinets and the worktop must not be less than 40cm (15 3/4").
Wall Fitting
The cooker hood may be fitted to any rigid vertical surface. All the fittings supplied are to be found in a polythene bag inside the carton.
IMPORTANT: Before installation check the wall to which the cooker hood is to be fitted for electric cables, water pipes or gas pipes before drilling.
If it is necessary to fix the hood to a hollow construction plaster or partition board structure then it must be sufficiently reinforced to be quite rigid in the area of the cooker hood mounting brackets. The hood must not be fitted using the key hole fixing points but with the special brackets supplied.
INSTALLATION Cont'd
Use the paper template provided to mark the hole positions on the wall for the bracket fixing screws.
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.
When drilling the holes for the wall fixing brackets care must be taken to ensure that they are quite level as there is minimal vertical height adjustment of the fixing brackets.
The brackets should be fitted with the round end at the bottom using the plastic rawl plugs and screws provided.
If the brackets are to be fitted to a hollow plaster or partition board structure then the plastic rawl plugs provided should not be used. Once the brackets are secured lift the hood squarely to the wall slightly higher than the brackets and lower the cooker hood until the cooker hood locates onto the two brackets.
Ensure that the cooker hood is correctly located before letting go.
Access to the two wall levelling screws and the security fixing system will require the removal of the lower inlet grille that supports the grease mat filter.
To remove the lower grille press inwardly on the two slide catches located towards either side of the grille near the front and the grille will open from the front. The grille pivots at the rear. Slide the right edge of the grille forward until it clears the guide and then unhook the left hinge pin.
Care should be taken to fully support the grille when removing it from the guides.
The two wall levelling screws will be visible toward either end of the back panel, when the grille has been removed. Turn the screws clockwise to lift the front edge of the hood and use a spirit level to check the hood is positioned at right angles to the wall before fitting the security system.
INSTALLATION Cont'd
The wall brackets have two studs and when the cooker hood is hung onto the brackets the studs project through the two holes above the levelling screws.
When the hood is level fit the two shakeproof washers and nuts supplied to fully secure the cooker hood.
Wall Cabinet Fitting
Before fitting the cooker hood beneath any type of wall cabinet ensure it is firmly fixed to the wall in accordance with the manufacturers instructions.
Use the paper template provided to mark the hole positions on the underside of the cabinet. When marking the underside of the cabinet the front edge of the template must be aligned with the front edge of the cabinet carcase.
Check the distances of the holes are correct with a tape measure as stated on the template. The four holes are 5mm (1/4") dia.
A pad saw or similar cutter will be required to cut the circular hole for the ducting spigot if it is to be used.
Insert the fixing screws through the holes from inside the cabinet. Supporting the cooker hood tighten each screw about half way to ensure that the cooker hood is correctly positioned before fully tightening the screws.
DUCTING FITTING
If the hood is to be ducted to the outside then the blanking plate supplied must be fitted in the aperture that will not be used.
Fit the ducting spigot into the selected aperture and make an air tight connection.
The ducting used must be 100mm (4") diameter, manufactured from fire retardant material conforming to the relevant British Standard or DIN 4102-B1.
Where flexible ducting is fitted it should not be turned through very tight bends as this could impair the performance of the hood.
To fit the ducting spigot and blanking plate align the inter-locking lugs on the fitting with the recesses in the aperture and insert turning clockwise to lock the spigot and blanking plate into position.
(The maximum length of ducting including one 90 Degree bend should be 3 metres, to be reduced by 1 metre for each 90^ bend installed in the duct run).
When the ducting mode is selected the optional charcoal filter is not required.
