SAFETY AND WARNINGS
●
●
Before connecting any pipes, consult municipal ordinances to ensure that any
applicable regulations concerning the discharge of exhaust air are adhered to and
request permission from the person in charge of the building.

Exhaust air must not be discharged into an existing flue that is used for exhausting
fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.

cooktop and the lowest part of the rangehood shall be 600 mm or 650 mm if installed
over a gas cooktop.

Stainless steel is very easily damaged during installation if abraded or knocked by
tools. It is recommended to protect the top of the rangehood with cardboard or
polystyrene during the installation to minimise the risk of damage occurring.
