MOUNTING OF THE V-FLAP

If the cooker hood does not have an assembled V-flap 1, you should mount the half-pints to its body.
The images only show an example of how to mount the V-flap, because the outlet may vary according to different models and configurations.
To mount the V-flap 1 you should:

• Mount two half-parts 2 into the body 6
• the pin 3 should be top oriented;
• the axis 4 should be inserted into the holes 5 on the body;
• repeat all the operations for the 2nd half-part
  

INSTALLATION

If you have an outlet to the outside, your cooker hood can be connected as below picture by means of an extraction duct (enamel, aluminum, flexible pipe or nonflammable material with an interior diameter of 150mm)

1. Before installation, turn the unit off and unplug it from the mains power outlet.

2. The cooker hood should be placed at a distance of 65~75cm above the cooking surface for best effect.
   

3. Using a drill bit with an 8 mm diameter, make 8 holes in the wall at the position that you reserve for installing the chimney and cooker hood body. See Pic 2.
   

4. Insert wall plugs into the holes that you have drilled for the cooker hood body, fasten 2 pcs support screw ST4*40 mm halfway in, leaving them 2 mm out of the wall. See Pic2.

5. Hang the cooker hood onto the support screws. See pic 3.
   

6. Insert self-tap screw ST4*30 mm into the safety holes and fully fasten it to ensure the cooker hood is well fixed. Note: The two safety vents are positioned on the back housing, with a diameter of 6mm. See pic 3.

7. Attach the expansion pipe on the outlet as shown in pic 3. Fix the expansion pipe on the outlet with a cable tie. Lift up expansion pipe till it out of the wall through the hole on the wall. Please note the expansion pipe is not supplied.

8. Install the inside chimney bracket :Use ST4*40 screws to install the inside chimney bracket onto the wall. See Pic 4.
   

9. Equip the inside chimney and outside chimney: Install the outside chimney bracket on the outside chimney with 2pcs ST4*8mm screws, make sure that the inside chimney could be moved inside freely, see Pic 5.
   

10. . Fix the chimneys onto the cooker hood : Use 2pcs of ST48mm screws to fix the outside chimney bracket onto the cooker hood, then fix the outside chimney bracket on the wall with ST440mm screws. See Pic 6.
    

11. . Adjust the height of the inside chimney to the position of the inside chimney bracket and fix it with 2pcs ST4*8mm screws. See Pic 7
    

HINTS FOR EXHAUST DUCT INSTALLATION

The following rules must be strictly followed to obtain optimal air extraction:

• Keep exhaust duct short and straight.
• Do not reduce the size or restrict the exhaust duct.
• When using the flexible duct always install the duct pulled taut to minimize pressure loss
• Failure to observe these basic instructions will reduce the performance and increase noise levels of the range hood.
• Any installation work must be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.
• Do not connect the ducting system of the hood to any existing ventilation system which is being used for any other appliance ,such as warmer tube, gas tube , hot wind tube. outside chimney inside chimney ouside chimney bracket
• The angle of the bend of the ventilation pipe should not be less than 120º; you must direct the pipe horizontally, or, alternatively, the pipe should go up from the initial point and should be led to an outer wall.
• After the installation ,make sure that the cooker hood is level to avoid grease collection at on end.
• Ensure the exhaust ducting selected for installation complies with relevant standards and is fire retardant.
