For the installer

•Only for model DF6160: when used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a 120mm diameter hose.

•Only for models DF 6260 - DF 6260-ml/1 and CHDF 6260: when used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a 150mm diameter hose.

Only for model DF 6260 - DF 6260-ml/1: should there already be a hose of diameter 125 mm that ducts to the outside through the walls or roof, it is possible to use the 150/125 mm reduction flange provided. In this case the hood will be slightly more noisy.

•When installing the hood, make sure you observe the following minimum distance from the top edge of the

cooking hob/ring surfaces:
electric cookers	430 mm
gas cookers	650 mm

If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.

•The national Standard on fuel-burning systems specifies a maximum depression of 0.04 mbar in such rooms.

•The air outlet must not be connected to chimney flues or combustion gas ducts. The air outlet must under no circumstances be connected to ventilation ducts for rooms in which fuel-burning appliances are installed.

•The air outlet installation must comply with the regulations laid down by the relevant local authorities.

•When the unit is used in its extractor version, a sufficiently large ventilation hole must be provided, with dimensions that are approxi- mately the same as the outlet hole.

•National and regional building regulations impose a number of restrictions on using hoods and fuel-burning appliances connected to a chimney, such as coal or oil room-heaters and gas fires, in the same room.

•Hoods can only be used safely with appliances connected to a chimney if the room and/or flat (air/environment combination) is ventilated from outside using a suitable ventilation hole approximately 500-600 cm2 large to avoid the possibility of a depression being created during operation of the hood.

•If you have any doubts, contact the relevant controlling authority or building inspector’s office.

•Since the rule for rooms with fuel burning appliances is “outlet hole of the same size as the ventilation hole”, a hole of 500-600 cm2, which is to say a larger hole, could reduce the performance of the extractor hood.
