Miele DA 279-4 Ventilation Hood User Manual


 
Do not install this exhaust hood over
cooktops burning solid fuel.
When installing the hood, make sure
that the following minimum
distance (S) between the top of a
cooking surface and the bottom of
the hood is:
- 22" (55 cm) above electric cooktops
- 26" (65 cm) above gas cooktops
- 26" (65 cm) above an open grill
Follow the safety distances
recommended by the cooktop
manufacturer.
If there is more than one appliance
beneath the hood and they have
different minimum safety distances
always select the greater distance.
See "Important Safety Instructions"
for further information.
26" (65 cm) is recommended for all
installations to allow for optimum work
space under the hood.
Distance between cooktop and
hood (S)
The installation procedure differs
depending on the model and venting
method.
Before beginning the installation:
^
Read all instructions.
^
Determine height (S), regarding the
user’s body height, i.e. a comfortable
height for the user.
However, the greater the distance,
the less effectively cooking odors are
drawn in.
^ If the hood is fitted flush to the ceiling
make sure that the remaining
distance to the ceiling is not greater
or less than appliance height (H).
