ABBAKA range hoods consist of the hood shell and a liner, which fits into the base of the hood shell and 

houses the lighting, filters and controls.  

1.  After the hood has been uncrated, set it on 

a flat, padded surface, such as a blanket to 
protect the hood’s finish. Remove the wrap 
from the base of the hood and lay the hood 
down on a long side of the base.  

 

Note: If hood is fitted with utensil rail,  

 

cushion rail before laying on side. 

       2.   Remove Light Panel screws (A).  Pop out 

Light Panel (B) to access screws that attach 

liner to interior of hood shell.  Remove 
screws (C) and set the liner aside. 

 

PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS 

 

In order for the ABBAKA luxury range hood or any hood to operate properly, it must be sized cor-

rectly, have adequate blower capacity, be hung properly (centered over cook top and close enough to 
burners), and be vented correctly. 
NOTE :  The hood should be centered over the cooking surface. 

NOTE :  The recommended mounted height of the hood bottom above the cooking surface is 30-34”. 
 

For the Cylindra hood, maximum mounted height is 27” above cooking surface. 

NOTE :  Round stack island hoods will be supplied with a mount bracket. A bracket may be supplied for 

support of tall hoods. 

NOTE :  When Mounting Island Hoods - Do Not Close Ceiling Before Installation Is Complete.
