Extraction (Ducted)
The cooker hood is more effective when installed in the
extraction mode (ducted to the outside).
Venting kits may be purchased through your retailer or
DIY store, and must be evacuated through an outside
vent of ø125 (5ins) or ø150mm (6ins).
The ducting used must be manufactured from fire
retardent material conforming to the relevant British
Standard or DIN 4102-B1.
When the cooker hood is ducted to the outside
the charcoal filter must be removed.
Fitting the Ducting
• Fit the ø150mm (6ins) ducting to the spigot on top of
the hood body as illustrated.
• When using ø125mm (5ins) ducting fit item 9 and 10
on to the spigot on the top of the hood body as illus-
trated.
• For the best performance use the shortest possible run
of ducting and we recommend the use of rigid pipe in
preference to flexible hose as this will improve the flow
of air while reducing turbulence, which causes noise and
a loss of performance.
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 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 ducting when fitted in the extraction mode
must never be connected to central heating flues, radiators
or water heaters.
Recirculation Mode
The cooker hood is supplied specified for use in the
recirculation mode, with the charcoal filter fitted.
In the recirculation mode contaminated air is passed
through the charcoal filter to be purified and recirculated
into the kitchen through the grille outlets on either side
of the chimney.
Push fit the air outlet connector item 15 onto the air
outlet.
• Ensure the activated charcoal filter has been fitted.
