Installation recommendations
– We also recommend a distance of at
least 25 ¹/₂" (650 mm) above electric
coo
ktops to provide more workspace
and easier cooking under the hood.
– When selecting an installation height,
always tak
e the user height into con‐
sideration. Users should have ample
space to work comfortably on the
cooktop and reach the ventilation
hood controls with ease.
– Please note that the greater the dis‐
tance
from the cooktop, the less ef‐
fective the hood is at drawing in the
cooking vapors.
– To achieve optimal vapor extraction,
mak
e sure that the hood covers the
cooktop. The hood should be posi‐
tioned centrally over the cooktop, not
to the side or rear.
– The cooktop should be no wider than
the ho
od. Preferably, it should be
narrower.
– The mounting area must be easily
accessible. The ventilation hood
sho
uld be easy to reach and disas‐
semble in case a service call is nec‐
essary. This should be taken into
consideration when planning the po‐
sition of cupboards, shelves, ceilings
or decorative elements in the vicinity
of the ventilation hood.
Structural support
The hood must be attached to rigid
structur
al framing that is supported
in its entirety by the ceiling joists, or
to the ceiling joists directly. Do not
attach the plate directly to the ceiling
with anchors, toggle bolts, etc.
Removing the protective film
The housing components are covered
by a p
rotective film to prevent them
from becoming damaged during trans‐
port.
Please
remove this film before instal‐
ling the housing components. It can
be peeled off easily without any addi‐
tional tools.
