9WARNING
Risk of fire
Grease deposits in the grease filter may catch fire. The specified safety distances must be observed in order to prevent an accumulation of heat. Observe the specifications for your cooking appliance. If gas and electric cooktops are operated together, the largest specified distance applies.
Only one side of the appliance may be installed directly next to a
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 30 " (760 mm) from electric cookers and 30 "
(760 mm) from gas or mixed cookers.

▯The device achieves its optimum performance by means of a short, straight exhaust air pipe and as large a pipe diameter as possible.
▯The optimum extraction performance is not achieved and fan noise is increased if exhaust air pipes are long and rough and if there is a large number of pipe bends or diameters less than 5 15/ 16” (150 mm).
▯The pipes or hoses for laying the exhaust air line must consist of
Round pipes
An inner diameter of 5 15/16” (150 mm), but at least 4 3/ 4” (120 mm), is recommended.
Flat ducts
The inner
Ø5 15/16” (150 mm) approx. 27 ½ sq in (177 cm2)
Ø4 3/4” (120 mm) approx. 17 ½ sq in (113 cm2)
▯Flat ducts should have no sharp deflections.
▯Use sealing strip for deviating pipe diameters.
