Recirculation
If you are using the hood for recirculating, ensure the
charcoal filters are in position following the instructions
below.
Inserting the Charcoal Filters
1. Remove the grille panel, support the grille with
one hand and draw down on the two grey
handles (located at each side of the grille).
2. The charcoal filters are handed and should be
fitted one at a time.
3. Insert one end of the filter into the slots in the
fan housing, then lower the other and until the
tab engages the slot in the casing.
Extraction
The charcoal filters are not required in this mode and
should be removed. To do this reverse the procedure
described in Inserting the ‘Charcoal Filters’.
Ducting
The ducting used must be fire retardant 125mm (5”) in
diameter. If possible duct through the wall at the rear
of the canopy or wall cabinet. For the best performan-
ce use the shortest possible duct run and the minimum
number of bends. Where flexible ducting is fitted it
should not be turned through very tight bends as this
may impair the performance of the hood. It is
recommended a maximum length of 3m, to be
installed, to be reduced 1m for each 90° bend installed
in the ducting run. If the distance is greater than 3m
the efficiency of the hood could be impaired.
A ducting collar of 120-125 mm (5”) is supplied for
attaching to ducting if you are using the appliance in
the extraction mode.
If the room where the cooker 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 air
to the room.
The cooker hood ducting (extraction version)
must never be connected to central heating
flues, radiators or water heaters etc.
