Installing The Hood - Caple DD600SS Instruction Manual

2/ INSTALLING THE HOOD

1) Before starting the appliance installation, please check that all components are not damaged, in such a
case contact your retailer and do not carry out installation.
Furthermore, please read carefully all of the following installation instructions.
- Use an exhausting pipe whose maximum length does not exceed 5 meters.
- Limit the no. of elbows in the piping , since each elbow reduces the aspiration efficiency of 1 linear
meter. (Ex. : if you use no. 2 x 90 ° elbows, the length of piping l must not exceed 3 meters)
- Avoid abrupt direction changes.
- Use a 150 mm constant diameter pipe for the whole length .
- Use piping approved by standards in force.
Before the installation of the Downdraft, please remove the security piece you can see in the picture
(Fig. 1-2-3-4).
The manufacturer will not be answerable for any capacity or noise problems caused by failure to com-
ply with the above instructions and the warranty will be rendered null and void.
2) Before making the opening, check that there are no structural or other parts inside the cabinet, where
the appliance is to be placed, which could hinder a proper installation. Check that the dimensions of
the Downdraft and the ones of the cooktop are compatible with the cabinet so that the installation can
be carried out properly.
3) Make a rectangular opening, 790 x 100 mm in size, in the back of the cook top for the 90 cm model
and 490 x 100 mm for the 60 cm model and 1090x100mm for the 120cm model.
For models with motor already fitted, remove the screws and the extraction unit to fit the downdraft in
the relevant hole. At this point, insert a seal (silicone) in the bottom section of the frame support (Fig.
18) and place in the relevant hole (Fig. 18-19-20), then proceed to insert the downdraft into the unit.
4) Put the Downdraft in the opening, inserting it from above as shown in Fig. 12.
5) Fix the downdraft inside the cabinet, using the special fixing brackets supplied with the product.
(Fig.13a).
Insert the brackets in the lower side of the downdraft (Fig.13b), in such a way that there is a 2 mm dis-
tance between the lower side of bracket and the bottom of the cabinet. (Fig.13c).
This distance will allow the traction to be positioned downwards of the product, at the moment of fixing,
in order to have the stainless steel trim perfectly adhering with the work surface.
Before inserting the screws, please make sure that the appliance is perfectly perpendicular with the work
surface.
6) After completing the installation and connecting the appliance to the mains electricity, lift the down-
draft and remove the door block (Fig. 5-6-7). Then open the door (Fig. 8 - 9) and place the filters as
illustrated in Fig. 11.
7) In the version of the Downdraft equipped with motor, install the motor group adjusting the air evacu-
ation direction as required, either downwards or upwards. After installing the motor, connect the air
ducts (Fig. 13). The motor can be fitted either on the front or back side of the downdraft.
8) For versions with outside motor, place the suction unit (outside motor) in a suitable area and fit the
exhaust air flue as illustrated in Fig. 13. Proceed to fit the air outlet ducts between the outside mo-
tor and the down draft. Select an air outlet from the five possibilities (Fig. 21) and fit the connection
provided.
9) Put the metallic box containing the electronic components in a place easy to be reached if a technical
assistance is needed (Fig. 14). Connect the electrical connectors of the box to the Downdraft (Fig. 14).
10) For outside motors, connect the motor unit cable to the relevant connector on the electrical compo-
nents box.
11) Power the appliance.
Downdraft calibration
After having installed the Downdraft, it is necessary to start the calibration procedure, which is aimed at
adjusting the extraction strength of the filtering unit. Connect the product to the power line, making
sure that it is conformed to the supply voltage indicated on the technical data tag. Pushing the ON/1
button Fig. 22B the aspiration panel rises. After it has reached a height of 180 mm from the cooketop,
press OFF, to stop the extraction then the Timer and after 2 sec. the OFF button.
