The technical data of the electric appliance are given on the labels located inside the hood.

POSITIONING

The minimum distance between the highest part of the appliance for cooking food and the lowest part of the hood is indicated in the installation instructions.

Usually, when the hood is installed above a gas hob, this distance must be at least 65 cm (25.6"). However, based on the interpretation of standard EN60335-2-31 of 11-07-2002 by TC61 (subclause 7.12.13 and clause 10.11), the minimum distance between the hob surface and the lower part of the hood may be reduced to the mark indicated in the installation instructions.

If the gas hob manufacturer specifies a greater distance, this must be taken into account.

Do not install the hood outdoors or in places where it would be exposed to atmospheric agents (rain, wind, etc.).
