SECTION 1. CHECKLIST OF ITEMS
Check that the following items have been supplied:
1 extractor hood (Complete with blower motor, lighting, mains supply cord and
grease filter(s)
SECTION 2. EXTRACTION PERFORMANCE
The most important influence on the performance of the extractor is the design of the
ducting which takes the exhaust air from the extractor to the outside. The duct route
should be a prime consideration during the initial stages of the kitchen design. Please
note the following:
The extractor is provided with a spigot(s) suitable for connecting 150mm diameter
duct.
Note: 150mm is the minimum duct diameter consistent with efficient extraction.
Double blower (fan) models will require two independent duct runs.
The exhaust duct route length should be kept as short as possible with as few
bends as possible.
The most efficient configuration is to duct straight through an outside wall so try to
position the cooker against an outside wall when designing your kitchen layout.
The hood can be vented either to the top exhaust or the rear exhaust position. Use
the position which gives the shortest duct route length and least number of bends.
A route with more than two 90 degree bends will significantly degrade the
performance of the extraction system. Keep bend radius as large as possible to
maintain a smooth airflow without vortices; avoid kinks in flexible ducting; pull
flexible ducting taut over straight runs to ensure that the internal surface is as
smooth as possible.
Rigid 150mm diameter (or equivalent rectangular) ducting should be considered for
long or complex duct runs (which must be sourced separately).
DO NOT REDUCE THE DUCTING DIAMETER OF 150MM AS THIS WILL
REDUCE THE EXTRACTORS PERFORMANCE

SECTION 3. IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The following minimum headroom is required to accommodate the cooker and
hood:
Cooker height (nominal):
900mm
Min Cooker-to-hood clearance
Clearance with FdeF backsplash
800mm
850mm
Hood height:
450mm
Advice only: Clearance between
hood and ceiling:
5mm
(recomme
nded)
Required ceiling height (min):
Rear Exit Spec
2155mm
The minimum distance between the range hob burners and the bottom of the
extractor is essential to prevent overheating of the extractor and its components.
If you are fitting a Fourneaux backsplash then the cooker-to-hood clearance is
dictated by the backsplash height of 850mm excluding flanges
Please also note that a 90 degree bend in the flexible ducting will require 315mm
minimum headroom to give a smooth radius with no kinking.
The exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting
fumes from appliances supplied with energy other than electricity, e.g. oil or gas-
fired central heating boilers, gas-fired water heaters, etc.
Requirements of the relevant authorities concerning the discharge of exhaust air
must be complied with.
Adequate ventilation of the room must be provided when the cooker extractor and
appliances supplied with energy other than electricity (e.g. gas-fired or oil-fired
heaters, etc.) are used simultaneously. The room must be provided with vents to
allow a constant flow of fresh air.
Attention: This appliance requires an earth connection
Ensure that the supply voltage corresponds to that marked on the rating label
inside the extractor.
The extractor must be isolated from the electrical supply before carrying out any
cleaning or maintenance operations.
If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its after-sales service, or a suitably qualified person.
Pay particular attention to fire risk when frying. To minimise the risk of fire, all
instructions relating to cleaning the grease filters and removing grease deposits
must be adhered to
Do not flambé under the extractor
The hood has been designed to remove the kitchen smells; any other additional
use shall be regarded as non-intended.
This appliance is not intended for use by person (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory, metal capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance
by a person responsible for their safety.
This appliance is for domestic use only.

SECTION 4. INSTALLATION
Removing the Grease Filter(s)
Place extractor on its backplate on a horizontal surface.
The grease filter(s) have an integrated sprung latch and release mechanism.
Release the latch by pulling the lever and remove the filter. The filter is replaced
by locating the fixed tabs on the filter into corresponding 2mm slots in the
baseplate and then pushing the filter into position with the latch held open. Once
the filter is in position carefully release the lever, allowing the latch to engage in
corresponding 5mm slots.
Reversing Motor Outlets
Your Fornair extraction hood can be vented either to the top or rear exhaust
position.
Remove grease filters please figure XX
With the power isolated to the hood disconect the motors as per Fig1
Fig 1
5
With the motor(s) disconnected remove the three fixing screws holding the motor
plate to the back panel of the hood. See Fig 2
Fixing screws motor plate rear of the hood
Fig 2
With the motor(s) disconnected remove the three fixing screws holding the motor
plate to the top panel of the hood. See Fig 3
Fixing screws motor plate top of the hood

With all the fixings screws and the motors disconnected remove the motor plate
from the hood and reverse the position of the motor(s). See Fig 4
Fig 4
Duct Installation
Make a hole or holes in the walls and/or ceiling, as necessary, in order to take
150mm diameter ducting from the extractor spigot(s) to the outside.
The exhaust duct route length should be kept as short as possible with as few
bends as possible.
If using FdF duct kit ensure that holes in external wall will accommodate the
ducting and connecting strap (Min 160mm diameter).
Warning
Do not reduce the ducting diameter from 150mm as this will affect the
performance of the hood and could damage the motor. Damage caused
to the hood by incorrect ducting will not be covered by warranty.

Fixing the Hood to the Wall
If you are fitting a Fourneaux backsplash it must be fitted before the hood.
The supporting wall must be of good quality, have an even surface and be sturdy
enough to support the extractor.
Fixings must be used which are suitable for the type of wall construction.
Your Lacanche hood has four fixing holes and two suspending Brackets.
Offer the hood into position and insure that the hood is level.
Mark the fixing holes and suspending brackets.
Using a suitable size drill for you fixings. Drill and secure the wall fixings.
With all the holes drilled and with the fixing plugs in place mount the suspending
brackets
Hang the extractor onto the suspending brackets
Ensuring that the hood is level secure the hood with the remaining fixing screws
If the hood is to be vented from the rear connect the ducting to the ducting spigot
on the hood.
Connecting the Ducting
Connect ducting to extractor exhaust spigot(s). This may have to be done prior to
fixing the extractor to the wall.
When the extractor is in position, check that the duct has not been flattened or
kinked along its route.
Connect the ducting to the wall louvre spigot or alternative outside termination.
Secure the louvre to the outside wall. Ensure that the air fins are directed
downwards.
Refit the grease filter(s).
