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
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 "Important Safety Instructions" 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 procedure and determine height (S) before begin- ning the installation. Installations differ depending on the model and venting method. 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 H.
