Installation Requirements
Before installation check the wall to which the
cooker hood is to be tted for electric cables,
water or gas pipes.
If it is necessary to x the hood to a hollow
construction plaster or partition board
structure then it should be sufciently
reinforced to be quite rigid in the area of the
cooker hood keyhole xing screws, and the
appropriate rawl plugs used for this type of
xing (not supplied).
Ducting

in diameter and the length should be no
