When installing the appliance, follow these steps:
1. Remove all the packaging and marketing materials before first use.
2. Mark the required installation height (650 mm for electric and 750 mm for gas cooking plates) on the
wall behind the cooker or the cooking plate (Fig. 3).
3. Draw a vertical line to mark the centre of the cooking plate (of the cooker).
4. Drill holes and attach the hood bracket as shown in Fig. 4.
5. Make sure that the bracket is in the horizontal position in order to prevent grease (fat) from being accu-
mulated on one side after the hood has been hung (Fig. 5).
6. Hang the hood on the attached bracket as shown in Fig. 6.
7. After the hood has been hung, install the flexible outlet duct to the outlet opening (Fig. 7). Use a reducer
fitting 150/120 mm in diameter, if required. Insert the second part of the flexible duct in the opening
prepared in the wall.
8. Drill holes and attach the lower chimney part bracket as shown in Fig. 8.
9. Place the lower part as well as the upper part of the chimney on the hood hung (Fig. 9). Lift the upper
part up to the required height and mark holes on the wall for attachment of the upper chimney part
bracket. Subsequently remove the lower as well as the upper chimney part.
10. Drill holes and attach the upper chimney part bracket as shown in Fig. 10.
11. Place the lower as well as the upper chimney part. Lift the upper part up to the required height and
