HINTS FOR EXHAUST DUCT INSTALLATION
The following rules must be strictly followed to obtain optimal air extraction:
•
Keep the exhaust duct short and straight.
•
Do not reduce the size or restrict the exhaust duct.
•
Failure to observe these basic instructions will reduce the performance and increase noise level of
the appliance.
•
Any installation work must be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.
•
Do not connect the ducting system of the hood to any existing ventilation system which is being used
for any other appliance, such as warmer tube, gas tube, hot wind tube.
•
The angle of the bend of the exhaust duct should not be less than 120º; you must direct the duct
horizontally or alternatively, the duct should go up from the initial point and should be led to an outer
wall.
•
After the installation, make sure that the appliance is level to avoid grease collection at one end.
•
Ensure the exhaust duct selected for installation complies with relevant standards and is fire
retardant.

mounting screws which are recommended in this instruction
manual.
