Fig.7 Adjust the position of the upper brackets (Fig. 7 B). Fit the hood to the hooks by means of the two brackets B. Ensure that the hood is at the right height, the height of the hood can be adjusted with the help of the screws (Fig.7 S). The hood can be fitted to the cupboards as detailed under the heading ‘Fitting the Hood to the Cupboards’. in the event that the side cupboards are considered to be inadequate to support the weight of the hood, the hood should be fixed to the wall as well as to the side of the cupboards. Installing your Cooker Hood Fixing the Hood to the Cupboards: Place the template on the side of the right cupboard, so that the letter B aligns with the front part of the cupboard (disregard the thickness of the door) and drill two holes 2.5mm diameter at points B1 and B2 (Fig. 8). Fig.8 Place the same template on the side of the left cupboard ensuring that side C aligns with the front part of the cupboard (disregard the thickness of the door) and drill two holes 2.5mm diameter at the point C1 and C2 (Fig.9). Fig.9 Fit the hood to the cupboard by means of the screws (Fig.10 E). Fig.10 Replace the visor with decor panel, inserting it first in the upper slides and then in the lower slides. Turn the rear locking knobs anti-clockwise until it stops and then mount the grille by lifting it up - pushing inwards and turn the locks to secure. Once the Hood has been fixed, if the cupboards are deeper than the hood, mount spacer (Fig.11 S) and secure it with the two screws Fig.11 T) 3.5 x 13 and washers on the back of the hood. Fig.11 The spacer is reversible to cover a gap from 1 to 4cm. Installing your Cooker Hood Fitting the Decor Panel: The hood is designed to be fully integrated into the kitchen by fitting a decor panel onto the visor to match the adjoining kitchen cabinets. To fit the decor panel remove the complete visor assembly from the hood. First open grille (Fig.12 A) turning the locks (Fig.12 B). Fig.12 Remove the visor by first turning the two locking knobs (Fig.13) in clockwise direction. Fig.13 Place the template supplied on the rear side of the decor panel, ensuring that the arrow aligns the upper edge of the panel (Fig.14). Fig.14 Drill the holes where indicated on the template and fit the door to the decor panel by means of screws (Fig.15 D). Fig.15 Operating your Cooker Hood The Controls Make sure that the Cooker Hood is wired in and the power supply is switched on. The Cooker Hood functions are controlled by two slide switches located on the right hand side behind the visor. Fan Speed The top slider enables you to select the fan speed. Position 1, should be selected when simmering or using only one pan. Position 2 for normal cooking, up to four pans. Position 3 when frying or cooking foods with strong odours. Do’s and Don’ts DO Do take extra care when frying. Do keep the heating areas on your hob covered over with pots and pans etc. when using the hob or Cooker Hood switch (especially if you are using a gas hob). Do make sure that there is an adequate air inlet into the room if you are using the hood to vent externally and have a boiler or fire in the room, so that fumes are not drawn back from the flue. Work Top Illumination The lower slider (ON/OFF) enables you to switch on the work top illumination. The concealed microswitch acts as an override and will switch the Hood ‘OFF’ when the visor panel is closed. When the visor panel is opened the hood will resume working at its previous setting. To obtain the best performance, it is advisable to switch on the hood a few minutes before you start cooking and leave it running for approximately 15 minutes after finishing. DON’T Don’t use the hood without the grease filter. Don’t leave a naked flame under the hood. Don’t leave cooker/hob hotplates ‘On’ when not covered, as the fan motor of this cooker hood incorporates a thermal cut-out device which will operate if the hood overheats. The fan motor will take approximately 20 minutes to automatically reset at which point the hood will resume normal functions. NEVER do flambe cooking beneath this cooker hood. NEVER leave frying pans or deep fat fryers unattended during use, overheated fat/oil may catch fire. Caring for your Cooker Hood Fig.19 Before doing any cleaning or replacing the filters or light bulb, always ensure that the electricity supply to the Cooker Hood is switched ‘OFF’. Filters and their replacement: THE GREASE FILTER Your Cooker Hood is fitted with a grease filter which absorbs grease, dust etc. and helps to keep the appliance clean inside. Gradually the filter will become saturated with grease. When this happens the grease filter must be replaced, usually about every two months depending on use. IMPORTANT: There could be a possible fire hazard if the grease filter is not replaced when necessary and according to these instructions. Replacement grease filters are available from your nearest retailer or our Genuine Parts and Accessories Mail Order Hotline (see back cover)....
