Do not install this exhaust hood over
cooktops burning solid fuel.
When installing the hood, make sure
that the following
minimum dis-
tance
(
S
) between the top of a Miele
cooking surface and the bottom of
the hood is:
- 22" (55 cm) above electric cooktops
- 26" (65 cm) above gas cooktops
- 26" (65 cm) above an open grill
For non-Miele cooking appliances
maintain the safety distances recom-
mended by the cooktop manufac-
turer in their installation and operat-
ing instructions.
If there is more than one appliance
beneath the hood and they have dif-
ferent minimum safety distances al-
ways select the greater distance.
See "Important Safety Instructions"
for further information.
26" (65 cm) is recommended for all in-
stallations to allow for optimum work
space under the hood.
Read the entire installation procedure
and determine height (
S
) before begin-
ning the installation. Installations differ
depending on the model and venting
method. If the hood is fitted flush to the
ceiling make sure that the remaining
distance to the ceiling is not greater or
less than appliance height
