Installation
Safety distance above the hob
A minimum safety distance must be maintained between the hob and the cooker hood above it. See the cooker hood manufacturer's operating and installation instructions for details.
If the manufacturer's instructions are not available for the cooker hood, a minimum safety distance of at least 760
mmmust be maintained. For any flammable objects, e.g. utensil rails, wall units etc. a minimum distance of at least 760 mm must be maintained between them and the hob below.
When two or more appliances are installed together below a cooker hood, e.g. an electric hob and a gas wok combiset, which have different safety distances given in the installation instructions, you should select the greater distance of the two.
