Miele DA 229-2 - Manual (Page 27)

Do not install this exhaust hood over
cooktops burning solid fuel.
When installing the hood, make sure
that the following
minimum dis-
tance ( S ) between the top of a Miele
cooking surface and the bottom of
the hood is:
- 22" (55 cm) above electric cooktops
- 26" (65 cm) above gas cooktops
- 26" (65 cm) above an open grill
For non-Miele cooking appliances
maintain the safety distances recom-
mended by the cooktop manufac-
turer in their installation and operat-
ing instructions.
If there is more than one appliance
beneath the hood and they have dif-
ferent minimum safety distances al-
ways select the greater distance.
See "Warning and Safety instruc-
tions" for further information.
26" (65 cm) is recommended for all in-
stallations to allow for optimum work
space under the hood.
Read the entire installation procedures
and determine height
S before begin-
ning the installation.
If the hood is fitted flush to the ceiling
make sure that the remaining distance
to the ceiling is not greater or less than
appliance height
