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

To mount the V-flap 1 you should:

• Mount two half-parts 2 into the body 6
• a pin 3 should be top oriented;
• axis 4 should be inserted in 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 in the below picture through an extraction duct (enamel, aluminum, flexible pipe, or non-flammable material with an interior diameter of 150mm)

1. Before installation, turn the unit off and unplug it from the outlet.
2. The cooker hood should be placed at a distance of 65~75cm above the cooking surface for the best effect.
3. Install the hook in a suitable place once the installation height is fixed, and keep it in line. The fixed position of the inside chimney bracket is the highest place of a chimney. See pic 2.
4. Fix the expansion pipe with a cable tie. Put the cooker hood on the hook. See Pic 3&Pic 4.
5. Install the outside chimney bracket on the outside chimney, and be sure that the inside chimney can adjust the height in freely. Afterward, lead the expansion pipe to the outside. See Pic 5 &Pic 6.

   • Note: The two safety vents are positioned on the back housing, with a diameter of 6mm.
   • Adjust the height of the inside chimney to the position of the inside chimney bracket and fix it with screws. See pic 6& pic 7.

HINTS FOR EXHAUST DUCT INSTALLATION

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

• Keep the expansion pipe short and straight.
• Do not reduce the size or restrict the expansion pipe.
• When using expansion pipe always install the pipe pulled taut to minimize pressure loss.
• Failure to observe these basic instructions will reduce the performance and increase the noise levels of the cooker 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 that is being used for any other appliance, such as a warmer tube, gas tube, or hot wind tube.
• The angle of the bend of the expansion pipe should not be less than 120º; you must direct the pipe horizontally, or 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 one end.
• Ensure the expansion pipe selected for installation complies with relevant standards and is fire retardant.

WARNING:

• For safety reasons, please use only the same size of fixing or mounting screw which are recommended in this instruction manual.
• Failure to install the screws or fix the device under these instructions may result in electrical hazards.
