Please ensure that all power is switched off before installing the range hood.
Installation must be in accordance to the local electrical authority and codes.
The switched power outlet for the range hood should be positioned to enable the user to turn the

The switched power outlet should be installed within 600mm from the rear of the unit.
Ensure that when installing the range hood, that it is protected from any possible damage from tools etc.
Ducting for this unit must be installed in accordance to the local authority.
Ensure that the fixings used for this range hood are suitable.
Check the area where the range hood is to be fitted, to ensure that it is structurally sound.
Before using the appliance, remove the plastic coatings protecting the stainless steel finish.
These models are intended to be installed into kitchen cabinetry. Take care that the cabinetry and supporting wall can carry the weight of the rangehood.
Always double-check dimensions in this manual against the appliance before commencing.

The rangehood should be placed at a minimum distance of 600mm from the cooking surface of the cooker below. Any more than 750mm could compromise the performance of the appliance.

Drill a hole in the cupboard, 665 x 265 mm for model ORU70MB and 865 x 265 mm for model ORU90MB. Make sure the distance between the edge of the hole and the edge of the cupboard edge is at least 35mm.
Remove the filter and remove the four screws holding the front panel in place. Lift the appliance into the hole and check that it fits correctly (no gaps, does not interfere with anything above it etc.).
Mark the hole positions with a pencil, remove the appliance and pre-drill the holes using a small drill bit. Place the appliance back into position, line up the holes and fix into place using the 8 screws provided. Replace the cover & fix into position with the 4 screws and fit the filter. Fit the one way filter to the top of the unit.
The exhaust air vents through the one way valve at the top. If the exhaust is to be vented away, cut a hole (~Ø160mm) in the top of the cupboard, and connect Ø150mm ducting to the one way valve & pass it through the hole to wherever it is going. If the exhaust air is to be recirculated back into the room, either cut vents into the cupboard (with a minimum area of 800cm²), or leave the cupboard door open when in use.
