Safety distance above the hob
A minimum safety distance must be
maintained between the appliance and
the cooker hood above it. See the
cooker hood manufacturer's operating
and installation instructions for details.
If the manufacturer's instructions are
not available for the cooker hood or if
any flammable objects (e.g. utensil rails,
wall units etc) are installed above the
hob a minimum safety distance of at
least 760 mm must be maintained
between them and the appliance below.
When two or more appliances which
have different safety distances are
installed together below a cooker
hood, you should observe the
greatest safety distance.
