Preparation
Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist or stud must be cut, then a
supporting frame must be constructed.
Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings.
However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the
type of wall/ceiling.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling or wall for exhaust
vent.
Hood installation height above cooktop is the users preference. The lower the hood is above the
cooktop, the more efficient the capturing of cooking odors, grease and smoke.
CAUTION:
FOR GAS RANGES INSTALLATION: MOUNT THIS HOOD SO THAT THE
BOTTOM EDGE IS NOT LESS THAN 30" (76,2 CM) ABOVE THE COOKING SURFACE.
FOR ELECTRIC RANGES INSTALLATION: MOUNT THIS HOOD SO THAT THE BOTTOM
EDGE IS NOT LESS THAN 24" (61 CM) AND NOT MORE THAT 30" (76,2 CM) ABOVE THE
COOKING SURFACE.
HOUSEHOLD USE. PLEASE, READ INSTALLATION MANUAL FOR SPECIFIC
APPLICATION.
Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum before you select your hood.
