In this case the hood will be slightly more noisy. · When installing the hood, make sure you respect the following minimum distance from the top edge of the cooking hob/ring surfaces: electric cookers 500 mm gas cookers 650 mm coal and oil cookers 700 mm min. [. . . ] · Never insert pointed objects in the motor's protective grid. · Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grille using a damp cloth and mild detergents. · It is extremely important to clean the unit and change the filters at the recommended intervals.
