electriQ eiQCH110CEILING Canopy Cooker Hood Kitchen Extractor Fan In Silver User Manual
Thank you for choosing your electriQ cooker hood.
This instruction manual is designed to provide you with all required
instructions related to the installation, use and maintenance of the
appliance. In order to operate the unit correctly and safely, please read this
instruction manual carefully before installation and usage.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Whilst this product is compliant with all safety requirements, incorrect or inappropriate use can lead to both personal injury and potential damage to property. Please read the contents of this instruction booklet thoroughly before fitting or using this appliance.
- The cooker hood must be installed in accordance with the installation instructions and all measurements followed.
- All installation work must be carried out by a competent person or qualified electrician.
- The unit must be connected to an earthed power supply.
- If venting externally, make sure the ducting has no bends sharper than 90 degrees as this will reduce the efficiency of the cooker hood.
- The cooker hood is for domestic use only and is not designed for commercial use. It should only be used for the purpose it was intended – to extract vapours and cooking odours.
- Do not flambé or use an open flame under the cooker hood.
- Do not try to use the cooker hood without the grease filters or if the filters are excessively greasy! They should be cleaned regularly (see “Maintenance”) or replaced as necessary.
- The extraction fan must be level to avoid grease collection at one end, as this could cause a potential fire risk.
- Do not leave frying pans unattended during use because overheated fat or oils might catch fire.
- If the cooker hood is damaged, do not attempt to use it.
- If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
- This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
- Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
- Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. It is not a toy.
- The plug must be accessible after installation for isolation in case of an emergency – or an appropriate fused switch if the unit is hard-wired to the mains via a spur.
- The minimum distance between the surface of the hob and the lowest part of the hood should be at least 65cm. A distance of between 65cm and 75cm gives peak efficiency.
- The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
- When the hood is vented externally and used with appliances which burn fuel (e.g. gas, oil, wood) the area must be sufficiently ventilated to ensure safe operation. Fresh air must be allowed to freely enter the room to prevent a partial vacuum.
- A partial vacuum can starve the heating appliance of oxygen, impairing combustion. It can also prevent toxic fumes from leaving the room, or can cause fumes to be sucked into the room from outside.
- Safe operation is only possible when the partial vacuum within the working area does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved by ensuring air is able to enter the room from outside through a suitable sized opening which cannot be sealed during operation. A number of alternative solutions are available to ensure this. If in any doubt, professional advice should be sought.
- Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.
- There is a potential fire risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions.
- Clean your appliance periodically by following the method given in the chapter MAINTENANCE
- If used in recirculation mode, the charcoal filters trap odours and must be replaced at least once a year depending on how frequently the cooker hood has been used.
- For safety reason, please use only the same size of fixing or mounting screw, which are recommended in this instruction manual.
- Warning: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards
CAUTION : Accessible parts of the hood can become very hot during use with cooking appliances, whether in use or not, due to heat rising from the hob. Sufficient time should be allowed for the unit to cool before touching either the housing or the grease filters.
PARTS LIST
V-FLAP INSTALLATION
OPTIONS FOR VENTILATION
This hood can be set up for either external venting or recirculation of the air. The type of setup should be decided before commencing installation.
EXTERNAL VENTING
A flexible pipe is provided which allows the cooking odours to be extracted outside. If this is the chosen installation method consideration to the route of the vent pipe should be made. The unit is also provided with an adaptor allowing pre-existing 120mm ducting to be used to vent the unit.
RECIRCULATION
This Cooker hood also supports the recirculation of the air once it has passed through the filters. The filtered air is then expelled through the vent holes in the side of the chimney.
When setting the unit up in this configuration, carbon filters should also be used to remove odours from the air. Details of sourcing and fitting the filters can be found in the Carbon filter section.
INSTALLATION
- The cooker hood should not be placed at a distance of no more than 1500mm from the cooking surface for the best performance. Refer to Pic 1.
- The ceiling must can bear at least 120KGs weight, and the thickness of the ceiling must be greater than 30MM.
- Drill 14pcs φ 8mm holes on the ceiling once the installation height has been determined.
- Calculate the length of the angle iron then use the M4*10 screws and M4 nut with gasket to connect the angle iron into the adjustable angle iron bracket. Ensure the overlap length of angle iron is no less than 36mm.

Lift up the housing and use M412mm machine silk screws and M4 nut with gasket to fix the housing onto the 2 hanging board and pull the expansion pipe outside. (Note: The expansion pipe must be fixed on the housing firmly.)
