Installation recommendations

– When selecting an installation height,
always tak consideration. Users should have ample space to work comfortably on the cooktop and reach the ventilation hood controls with ease.
– Please note that the greater the
distance from the cooktop, the less effective the hood is at drawing in the cooking vapors.
– To achieve optimal vapor extraction,
mak cooktop. The hood should be positioned centrally over the cooktop, not to the side or rear.
– The cooktop should be no wider than
the ho narrower.
– The mounting area must be easily
accessible. The ventilation hood sho

Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or in attics, cr

To reduce the risk of fire, only use metal ductwork.
Please read and follow the "IMPOR INSTRUCTIONS" to reduce the risk of personal injury. Follow all local building codes when installing the hood.
