Installing the hood 11 Step 8: • Lift the assembled range hood (1) and fix it to the upper bracket (4) with 8 short screws (19) and washers (12) [4 on each side] (fig. ). • In assembling the upper bracket to lower bracket that Dimension A on page 8 should be reference to make the correct mounting height above the cooktop. Top of Upper bracket Dimension A Top of Lower bracket Step 9: • Fix the upper and lower chimney with 4 short screws (fig. ). CAUTION Danger of injury. The chimney skirts may have some sharp edges. Exhaust operation • During exhaust operation, the range hood removes air from a room. If other fire sources that require the surrounding air for combustion are being operated in the same room, (e.g. gas, oil or coal heaters), the oxygen they require is taken away. Thus flames could be suffocated and gas could leak out or the fumes could be drawn back into the room. • In order to guarantee a safe operation, there should be non-closable openings in doors, windows to ensure a fresh supply of combustion air. This will prevent the combustion fumes from being drawn back into the room. • When assessing the measures necessary, always take the entire ventilation system of the house into consideration. • Never secure the range hood to a ventilation duct, or a room or exhaust gas chimney! Do not let the air that is removed from the room be drawn into a duct where warm air is circulating. The extracted air should only be drawn outdoors through a separate ventilating duct that is only for the extractor hood. • When in extraction mode, air in the room is being removed by the range hood. Please make sure that proper ventilation measures are being observed. The range hood removes odors from room but not steam. • There shall be adequate ventilation of the room when the range hood 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 air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels (not applicable to appliances that only discharge the air back into the room). • Secure the lower chimney to the lower bracket (5) and upper chimney to the upper bracket (4) on both sides with 2 short screws (19) each. Air recirculation operation • Recirculated air: Kitchen fumes are removed and after purification are fed back into the room through the upper ventilation openings. The purification takes place via metallic anti-grease filter. No ceiling breakthrough is required for Recirculated air operation.
