C
(Section reserved for qualified installers of the range hood)
The distance “X“ between the hob and the lowest part of the rangehood is
indicated on picture C.
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this
has to be taken into account.
In the outside exhaust version, the diameter of the entire duct run must be no
smaller than the range hood connection.
In the horizontal duct run, the duct must slope slightly (around 10%) upwards,
so as to better ventilate the air outside of the room. Avoid using angled pipes,
make sure that the pipes are at least of the minimum length.
Comply with the current regulations on air discharge into the atmosphere.
If a boiler, stove, fireplace, etc. that uses gas or other fuels is being used at the
same time, make sure the room where the fumes are extracted is well venti-
lated, in compliance with the current regulations.
Mounting instruction: see section “O” of the booklet.
