Installation Appliance dimensions The drawing is not to scale.
Installation de Installation area (only d is required for recirculation ventilation hoods). Wall and ceiling area for exhaust duct opening and for wall socket installation. Only the wall socket installation is required for recirculation hoods. Vent collar 6" (150 mm), with adapter 5" (125 mm). Distance between cooktop and ventilation hood (S) Provided a larger distance is not given by the manufacturer of the cooktop, follow the minimum safety distances between a cooktop and the bottom of the hood.
Installation Installation recommendations – We also recommend a distance of at least 25 ¹/₂" (650 mm) above electric cooktops to provide more workspace and easier cooking under the hood. Drilling diagram for wall mounting When drilling, please follow the directions contained on the accompanying installation sheet. – When selecting an installation height, always take the user height into consideration.
Installation Plywood backing The majority of the weight of the installed ventilation system will be supported by the lower retaining plate. It must be firmly attached to the stud framing behind the drywall. If studs are not available in the required locations, a plywood backing (min. ½" (13 mm) thick) spanning at least two studs must be installed. Failure to adequately support the weight as stated may result in the ventilation system falling off the wall, causing personal injury and property damage.
Exhaust duct WARNING: Danger of toxic fumes. Gas cooking appliances release carbon monoxide that can be harmful or fatal if inhaled. To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, the exhaust gases extracted by the hood should be vented outside of the building only. Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or in attics, crawl spaces or garages. To reduce the risk of fire, only use metal ductwork.
Exhaust duct Condensate trap Reducing Collar (optional accessory) In addition to insulating the exhaust duct, we recommend installing a condensate trap to collect and evaporate any condensate which might accumulate. Condensate traps are available for exhaust ducts with a diameter of 5" (125 mm) or 6" (150 mm). When installing a condensate trap, make sure that it is positioned vertically and, if possible, directly above the hood outlet duct collar.
Electrical connection WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING: All electrical work should be performed by a qualified electrician in strict accordance with national regulations (for USA: ANSI-NFPA 70) and local safety regulations. Installation, repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. Ensure that power to the appliance is OFF while installation or repair work is performed.
Activating Con@ctivity 2.0 Installation of the Con@ctivity 2.0 stick In order for you to be able to use the Con@ctivity 2.0 function, the cooktop must be equipped with a Con@ctivity 2.0 stick. See the relevant installation instructions of the Con@ctivity 2.0 stick. Activating the ventilation hood Turn off the fan, cooktop lighting and cooktop. Press the Delayed shut down button 515 for approx. 10 seconds until the 1 indicator appears in the fan level display.
