- Ventilate the room suitably according to the Australian building standards when the appliance is working together with gas or oil appliances.
- The SEM motor is powered by the rangehood. Standard 10AMP GPO at the point of rangehood required.
- Before connecting the rangehood to the mains supply, make sure that the voltage indicated in the rating plate corresponds to the mains voltage in the home.
- Before carrying out any sort of maintenance or cleaning operation, make sure that the appliance is disconnected from the electrical mains.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION BEFORE INSTALLATION OF YOUR SIRIUS RANGEHOOD
- Rangehood and SEM motor cannot be installed back-to-back. There must be a minimum of 2 metres between rangehood and motor for noise reduction reasons.
- Only use ducting that falls within the necessary minimum and maximum length requirements as specified in the installation guide.
- Try and minimise bends to the ducting for optimum performance.
- Use only suitable ducting as specified by Sirius. Under no circumstances is flexible ducting to be used as it creates unwanted noise, vibration and can place the motor under unnecessary stress resulting in premature failure of the SEM motor.
- Under no circumstances is the duct diameter is the duct diameter to be reduced. A constant minimum diameter of 150mm for the SEM 11 / 21 / 51 must be maintained at all times. For SEM 71 / 81 motors a constant diameter of 200mm must be maintained at all times.
- Read the mounting and operating instructions of the rangehood carefully.
- The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for a decrease of the airflow or for an increase of noise level caused by non-compliance with the instructions above.
MOTOR WIRING CONNECTION
- Remove the four screws holding the front of the housing in place to expose the connections.
- Following the wiring chart on the front of the housing, connect each wire to the matching colour, making sure that this is done correctly before running power to the unit.
- Replace the cover and fix the four screws back into place.
BEFORE YOU INSTALL – DUCTING INFORMATION
Sirius warranty covers only Sirius product. If you choose to install a non-
Sirius branded accessory such as flexible ducting, Sirius will only warrant
the rangehood and motor. If installation is found to be the cause of failure
or issue then charges will apply for service and parts.
Flexible ducting is not permitted under any circumstances. Flexible ducting
has been found to increase noise levels, increase vibration and reduce
airflow. Sirius Semi-rigid or solid ducting can be used in lieu. There is a
range available to suit any application.

The appliance must be installed and connected to the power supply only by a
qualified technician.
- There should be adequate ventilation of the room when the rangehood is used at the same time as appliances burning gas or other fuels (not applicable to appliances that only discharge the air back into the room)
- The details concerning the method and frequency of cleaning
- There is a fire risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions;
- Do not flambé under the range hood;
