Installation recommendations
– When selecting an installation height,
always take the user height into
consideration. Users should have
ample space to work comfortably on
the cooktop and reach the ventilation
hood controls with ease.
– Please note that the greater the
distance from the cooktop, the less
effective the hood is at drawing in the
cooking vapors.
– To achieve optimal vapor extraction,
make sure that the hood covers the
cooktop. The hood should be
positioned centrally over the
cooktop, not to the side or rear.
– The cooktop should be no wider than
the hood. Preferably, it should be
narrower.
– The mounting area must be easily
accessible. The ventilation hood
should be easy to reach and
disassemble in case a service call is
necessary. This should be taken into
consideration when planning the
position of cupboards, shelves,
ceilings or decorative elements in the
vicinity of the ventilation hood.
Structural support
The hood must be attached to rigid
structural framing that is supported
in its entirety by the ceiling joists, or
to the ceiling joists directly. Do not
attach the plate directly to the ceiling
with anchors, toggle bolts, etc.
Removing the protective film
The housing components are covered
by a protective film to prevent them
from becoming damaged during
transport.
Please remove this film before
installing the housing components. It
can be peeled off easily without any
additional tools.

Draw two intersecting lines on the
ceiling.
For vented mode:
– Place a section of the exhaust
ducting in the ceiling and feed it
down through the cross-sectional
area as illustrated. Exhaust ducting of
approx. 8" (200 mm) length is
required between the ceiling and the
hood exhaust socket.
– Secure the exhaust ducting to the
exhaust socket, e.g. with a hose clip
(available as an optional accessory)
on flexible ducting.
Place the power cord and guide it
through the ceiling in the area shown.
A power cord approx. 12" (300 mm)
in length is required between the
ceiling and the hood connectors.
Installation
34
Use a knife to release the four
spacers and the two covers from the
spacer frame supplied.
Use the spacer frame as a drilling
template. Place it on the ceiling with
the arrows pointing forwards. Using
the notches, align the spacer frame
on the intersecting lines and make
pencil marks for the drill holes.
Drill four holes ³/₈" (10 mm),
approx. 4 ¹/₂" (115 mm) deep for the
plugs supplied.
Place the four plugs in the holes and
screw in the four screws so that they
protrude by approx. 1 ³/₁₆" (30 mm).
Installation
35
Loosen the two telescopic extension
piece holders from the installation
frame.
The spacer frame can be installed
between the chimney and the ceiling.
This creates a shadow which gives the
illusion of a gap between the ceiling
and the chimney. This is useful if the
ceiling is not level or is uneven. The
hood is aligned vertically with the
spacers supplied. Visual irregularities
between the chimney and the ceiling
are then concealed by the shadow.
If you wish to install the hood with the
spacer frame, remove the four inserts
from the fixing holes.
Installation
36
Mount the spacer frame onto the
installation frame. Hang the hood on the four screws,
making sure the controls are at the
front.
If using the spacer frame, place the
two covers into the fixing holes.
Installation
37
Align the installation frame and
secure it with the screws.
The spacers, which were removed
from the spacer frame at the start,
can be used to align the hood
vertically.
Place the exhaust ducting onto the
exhaust socket.
Connect the power cord. See
"Electrical connection."
