Installation Dismantling Before installation, it is important to read the information given on the following pages as well as the Appliance dimensions and the Warning and Safety instructions at the beginning of this book. This is particularly crucial when using the cooker hood at the same time as a heating appliance that relies on air from the same room, as this could result in the build-up of toxic fumes.
Connection for air extraction Important: To avoid the danger of toxic fumes, please observe the Warning and Safety instructions. This is especially crucial when using the cooker hood at the same time as another heating appliance which relies on air from the same room. The cooker hood should be installed according to local and national building regulations. Seek approval from the building inspector where necessary.
Connection for air extraction – If the exhaust air is to be ducted into the open air, the installation of a telescopic wall vent or roof vent (available as an optional accessory) is recommended. Condensate trap (optional accessory) – If the exhaust air is to be ducted into a vent flue, the ducting must be directed in the flow direction of the flue. Important: If the exhaust ducting is to run through rooms, ceiling space etc.
Connection for air extraction Silencer ...with air extraction: (optional accessory) The silencer not only reduces noise from the motor outside the house, but also sounds from outside (e.g. traffic noise). For this reason the silencer must be positioned as close as possible to the ducting exit a. ...in recirculation mode: To achieve even further reductions in noise levels, a special silencer can be fitted in the ducting system.
Electrical connection All electrical work should be undertaken by a suitably qualified and competent person in strict accordance with national and local safety regulations (BS 7671 in the UK). Installation, repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous, for which the manufacturer cannot be held liable. Ensure power is not supplied to the appliance until after installation or repair work has been carried out.
