Installing the upper support frame
1. Specify the total height of the support
frame before installation and mark the
screw holes. The height of the support
frame can be adjusted in 20 mm steps.
The total height is measured from the
height of the ceiling, the height of the
worktop and the corresponding distances
between the hob and extractor hood.
2. On the ceiling mark the centre point of the
extractor hood.
3. Using the enclosed template, mark the
positions for the screws on the ceiling.
4. Drill 4x 8 Ø mm holes and press in wall
plugs flush with the ceiling.
5. Attach the upper part of the support frame
to the ceiling with 4 screws.
6. Ensure that the support frame is in the
correct position. The middle bracket
defines the preferred side. It must be facing
the hob control.
