ponsability, for any eventual inconveniences, damages or fires
caused by not complying with the instructions in this manual,

Preparation
Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist
or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be
constructed.
Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most types
of walls/ceilings.
However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the
materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
The hood is equipped with an 10” (25.4 cm) round transition
for discharge of fumes to the outside.

CAUTION
For gas cooktop & range installations: Mount the hood so the
bottom is at least 3O” (76.2 cm) above the cooking surface.
For electric/induction cooktop & range installations: Mount the
hood so the bottom is at least 24” (61 cm) above the cooking
surface.
There is no maximum mounting height, however, we recom-
mend mounting the hood no greater than 36” (91.4 cm) above
the cooking surface. For every inch (2.54 cm) above 36” (91.4
cm), fume and moisture capture efficiency diminishes at an in-
creasing rate and may not deliver an acceptable level of venti-
lating performance.
This hood is intended for household use.
PLEASE READ THE INSTALLATION MANUAL FOR SPECIFIC
APPLICATION. Check your ceiling height and hood height
before selecting your hood.
