If fitting a cooker hood above the hob:
If a cooker hood is to be installed above the hob, the height of
the hood above the hob must be at least 600mm (650mm is
recommended) (Fig.6). If the instructions supplied with the hood
dictate that the hood must be installed at a height greater than
600mm, then that height is the minimum required.
Wall furniture requirements:
The minimum height of any cabinet immediately above the hob is
900mm. The minimum height of any adjacent units (including light
pelmets) is 400mm, unless they are manufactured from a material
resistant to fire (steel, for example).
Important notes:
•
Do not position this appliance above a refrigeration unit. The heat
generated may cause the refrigeration unit to fail.
•
This appliance is designed to be installed into cabinet units capable
of withstanding temperatures of 65°C or greater above ambient
temperature.
