Preparation
This hood is designed to be installed inside a cabinet (only Blower unit housing) and fixed at the
bottom of the cabinet, check that the cabinet, its bottom, the hanging system of the cabinet and
the wall where cabinet is installed is strong enough to support the hood.
The inside of the cabinet should be accessible.
However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the
type of cabinet.
We suggest to mount the cabinet onto the wall after having installed the hood.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance.
NOTE: For ductless (recirculating) version only: Check that there is enough clearance
from ceiling and deflector once this last has been mounted to let an easy recirculation of air.
Hood installation height above cooktop is the users preference. The lower the hood is above the
cooktop, the more efficient the capturing of cooking odors, grease and smoke.
CAUTION:
FOR GAS RANGES INSTALLATION: MOUNT THIS HOOD SO THAT THE
BOTTOM EDGE IS NOT LESS THAN 24" (61 CM) ABOVE THE COOKING SURFACE.
FOR ELECTRIC RANGES INSTALLATION: MOUNT THIS HOOD SO THAT THE BOTTOM
EDGE IS NOT LESS THAN 32" (81 cm) ABOVE THE COOKING SURFACE.
Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum before you select your hood.
