If several gas surfaces are installed under the hood, the total output must be considered when determining the minimum safety distance.

Be sure to follow the minimum safety distances given by the gas cooktop manufacturer to easily flammable materials e.g. upper cabinets.

If local building codes require a greater safety distance, follow their requirement.

If there is more than one appliance beneath the hood and they have different minimum safety distances always select the greater distance.

See "Important Safety Instructions" for further information.

To ensure free access to work under the ventilation hood, a distance of a minimum of 26" (660 mm) above the electric cooktop is also recommended.

Take the user's body height into consideration when selecting the installation height. Adequate work space at the cooktop and optimal operation of the ventilation system should be ensured.

However, the greater the distance from the cooktop, the less effectively cooking odors are drawn in.

If the top of the hoods telescopic extension piece will be mounted flush to the ceiling, regard the possible unit height when selecting the installation height.
