Installation
Mounting Instructions
It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that the rangehood be installed centrally over the cooktop.
This will greatly improve its performance.
Minimum height from the hob top surface to the underside face of the rangehood:
• 650mm electric cooktop
• 650mm gas cooktop
Any installation above 800mm will compromise the extraction performance.
Note:
If the instructions for the gas cooktop specify a greater distance, this must be taken into account.
Recommended Installation Height for Induction Cooktop
To help avoid condensation, particular to cooking with an induction cooktop, Schweigen recommends
a height between 700-750mm. Refer to page 19 for further information.
*IMPORTANT:
If the user decides to install the rangehood
at a distance of less than minimum height above the cooking
surface, Schweigen declines responsibility for damages
suffered by the rangehood due to excess heat or damage
to objects, people and others caused directly or indirectly
by a malfunction, breakage or fire.
Measurements are from the top of the trivets
to the lowest part of the rangehood, including
the button controls.
* Important:
In addition to the information in this manual,
please check all relevant state requirememnts for minimum–
maximum heights, as well as regulations regarding the
expelling of air. Schweigen is not liable if your rangehood is
not installed in accordance with these legal requirements.
