Installation recommendations
– We also recommend a distance of at
least 25 ¹/₂" (650 mm) above electric
cooktops to provide more workspace
and easier cooking under the hood.
– When selecting an installation height,
always take the user height into
consideration. 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
distance from the cooktop, the less
effective the hood is at drawing in the
cooking vapors.
– To achieve optimal vapor extraction,
make sure that the hood covers the
cooktop. The hood should be
positioned centrally over the
cooktop, not to the side or rear.
– The cooktop should be no wider than
the hood. Preferably, it should be
narrower.
– The mounting area must be easily
accessible. The ventilation hood
should be easy to reach and
disassemble in case a service call is
necessary. This should be taken into
consideration when planning the
position of cupboards, shelves,
ceilings or decorative elements in the
vicinity of the ventilation hood.

mounting
When drilling, please follow the
directions contained on the
accompanying installation sheet.
When installing a custom back wall
with pre-drilled holes, please refer to
the drilling distances in the drawing
above (screws
³/₁₆" (5 mm)).
* The dimension for the middle wall
bracket is variable. It will depend on the
position of the wall vent and the socket.
It should be set as low as possible.
