There is a fire risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions.

Electrical Connection

Check that the mains voltage matches with the voltage on the data plate inside the rangehood.
Check that the installation complies with standards of local gas and electricity authorities.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

Accessories

Use 125mm round exhaust ducting for best performance.
When using flexible duct always install duct with the wire helix pulled taut to minimise pressure loss.
Try to keep exhaust duct short and straight.
Keep bends in the exhaust duct to a minimum.
Do not restrict exhaust duct.
Reducing the size of the exhaust duct will reduce the airflow of the rangehood. Please read instructions carefully. Service calls resulting from incorrect installation will be charged for.
Exhaust air from the rangehood must not be discharged into any heating flue which may carry combustion products from other sources. In addition, exhaust air must not be discharged into a wall cavity, unless the cavity is designed for the purpose. Adequate ventilation of the room must be ensured when the rangehood is operating simultaneously with appliances burning gas or other fuels. Installation must comply in all respects with your gas and electrical authorities. This rangehood is an indoor domestic appliance, and has been manufactured and tested to comply with Australian and New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 60335.2.31

INSTALLATION

Standard ducting installation

Installation using the supplied drawer fascia – REHR6 WRH605I WRH608I WRH908I
Standard ducted installation calls for a door extension of 130mm whether the client opts to use the supplied draw fascia or a custom fascia of the same dimensions as that supplied.

Recirculating vent installation – WRH608I WRH908I (WRR614A already fitted with 70mm front panel)
Note: If the rangehood is to be vented using the recirculating vent rather than standard ducting, the supplied drawer fascia is not to be used and must be replaced with a client specific custom fascia.
The custom drawer fascia must be a minimum of 70mm deep as air expelled through the recirculating vent must be deflected upwards.
