WARNING

RISK OF FIRE
Grease deposits in the grease filter can catch fire.

The given safety clearance must be observed to

avoid heat buildup. Observe the specifications for

your cooking appliance. If gas and electric cooktops

are used together, the largest given clearance

applies.
The appliance may only be installed directly next to

a cabinet or wall on one side. The wall or cabinet

clearance must be at least 2" (50 mm).

The clearance between the shelf on the cooktop and the

bottom of the extractor hood may not be less than 24"

(610 mm) in the case of electric cooktops and 30" (760

mm) in case of gas or combined ranges.
If the installation instructions for the gas cooking

appliance specify a larger distance, this must be taken

into account.

Fan operation

Note: Ventilation may not exit through an already

operational smoke or exhaust chimney, nor a duct used

for ventilating furnace installation areas.

If the ventilation is intended to pass through a smoke

or exhaust that is not in operation, the responsible

area heating inspector must give approval.

If the ventilation passes through an external wall, use a

telescope wall sleeve.

Ventilation line

Note: The device manufacturer does not assume any

warranty for complaints attributable to the pipe section.

The ventilation opening and the exhaust air ducts must

be made according to the local circumstances.

The device achieves its optimum performance by

means of a short, straight exhaust air pipe and as

large a pipe diameter as possible.

As a result of long rough exhaust air pipes, many pipe

bends or too-small diameters, the optimum extraction

performance is not achieved and fan noise is

increased.

The pipes or hoses for laying the exhaust air line must

consist of non-combustible material.

Smooth the connection area of the pipes before

installation.

Seal the connection points of the pipes appropriately.

Round pipes
An inner diameter of Ø 8" (200 mm) is recommended.
Flat ducts
The inner cross-section must correspond to the diameter

of the round pipes.
Ø 8" (200 mm) approx. 50.3 inches

2

(324 cm

2

)

Flat ducts should have no sharp deflections.

Use sealing strip for deviating pipe diameters.

Checking the wall

The wall must be level, vertical and adequately load-

bearing.

The depth of the bore holes must be the same length

as the screws. The wall plugs must have a secure grip.

The enclosed screws and wall plugs are suitable for

solid brickwork. Suitable fasteners must be used for

other structures.
