6.2 Installation  
WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,  
ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS,  
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:  
The minimum distance from the worktop to the  
bottom edge of the wall hood is for electrical appli-  
ances 24 / 600 mm and for gas appliances 30 /  
762 mm.  
a.) Installation work and electrical wiring must be  
done by qualified person(s) in accordance with  
all applicable codes and standards, including  
fire-rated construction.  
The extractor hood was conceived for the exhaust  
air mode. The exhaust air can be routed into a se-  
parate exhaust air shaft or directly into the open  
through the outside wall.  
b.) Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion  
end exhausting of gases through the flue  
(chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent  
back drafting. Follow the heating equipment  
manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards  
such as those published by the National Fire  
Protection Association (NFPA), and the American  
Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air  
Conditioning (ASHRAE), and the local code  
authorities.  
It is not allowed to pass the exhaust air into a flue  
or exhaust air chimney that is in operation or into a  
shaft that is linked to the heating basement. Consult  
the chimney sweep responsible for your district  
whenever you wish to pass the exhaust air into a  
chimney that is not in operation.  
During the course of planning, a chimney sweep  
must be consulted if a room air-dependent hearth  
is operated in the same room as the one in which a  
hood is operated in the exhaust air mode. Adequate  
incoming air must be ensured. The applicable con-  
struction and safety regulations must be observed.  
c.) When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do  
not damage electrical wiring and other hidden  
utilities.  
d.) Ducted fans must always be vented to the  
outdoors.  
Adequate incoming air must be ensured if a wood,  
coal, gas or oil heater or an open hearth is operated  
in the same room as the one in which the hood is  
installed.  
e.) If this unit is to be installed over a tub or shower,  
it must be marked as appropriate for the appli-  
cation and be connected to a GFCI (Ground  
Fault Circuit Interrupter) - protected branch  
circuit.  
Safe operation is possible whenever the partial  
vacuum in the place where the firing equipment  
is installed does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).  
This can be achieved whenever the air needed for  
combustion is able to enter through openings that  
cannot be sealed, for example in doors, windows,  
incoming/exhaust air wall boxes or by other techni-  
cal means.  
f.) NEVER place a switch where it can be reached  
from a tub or shower.  
WARNING:  
To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.  
14  
 
Flexible aluminium pipes, corrosion-protected  
sheet metal pipes and exhaust air pipes whose  
material conforms to fire B1 in accordance with  
DIN 4102 can be used. Exhaust air pipes should  
have a nominal diameter of 6 / 150 mm.  
As standard, the blow-out opening of the extractor  
hood is in the upward direction.  
To pass exhaust air through the outer wall, we  
recommend the use of our telescopic wall box  
TM 150-045 (Ø 6 / 150 mm).  
Pay particular attention to ensuring that  
Note:  
– the exhaust air ducts and pipes are kept as short  
as possible  
to prevent the ingress of water, e.g. condensate or  
rain water from an uncovered exhaust air shaft, our  
condensate separator RV 060-150 must be installed  
in the exhaust air line. The condensate separator  
must still be accessible after installation.  
– the pipes are not laid at an acute angle, but as  
bends and that they are inserted into the shaft at  
an inclined upward angle and  
– there are no cross-sectional constrictions in the  
upward direction (this reduces the volume flow).  
The duct units listed below are available depen-  
ding on the height of the ceiling:

Installation above gas cooker / gas hob  
Installation of the appliance above a gas cooking  
device must conform to national safety regulations.  
A minimum distance of 30 / 762 mm between the  
hood and gas appliance must be observed.  
Gas appliances may only be used under the  
extractor hood when pots and pans are placed on  
them!  
Operation above gas cooker / gas hob  
During operation the heat load of all hotplates and  
oven must not exceed 13.5 kW.  
Should the nominal heat loads of all hotplates com-  
bined exceed 13.5 kW (e.g. combination with WOK  
burner), during operation only a combination of hot-  
plates of max. 13.5 kW must be used.  
Exception:  
the nominal heat loads of all hotplates combined to  
a maximum of 15.4 kW can be operated for a very  
short period of time (max. 15 minutes), if the hood is  
running on a minimum of level 2. Otherwise there is  
a risk of burns when touching the exterior of the ex-  
tractor hood.

Note:  
(7 7/8") 200  
the extractor hood is to be installed to a kitchen  
ceiling or suspended ceiling. Ensure that the  
ceiling is capable of providing a firm hold for a  
maximum weight of hood and accessories of 60 kg.  
(13 5/8") 346  
Before marking the securing holes, make sure that  
no electricity wires or water pipes or other wires/  
pipes are laid at the drilling points in the ceiling.  
Before installation check the enclosed wall plugs  
and screws are suitable for your ceiling. If neces-  
sary use special wall plugs.  
Installation:  
1. Using the drilling template mark the position of  
the screws on the ceiling.  
2. Drill 4 holes Ø 8 mm for the wall plugs. Push the  
plugs flush with the ceiling (Fig. 19).  
Fig. 19  
3. Turn two screws to a 10 mm gap. Both screws  
are placed in a position, in which at a later stage  
of the installation the key-holes of the suppor-  
ting frame are found (namely front left and back  
right from the control panel of the hood).  
4. Place the hood on a suitable base. Connect the  
air outlet pipe to the hood.  
5. Screw the support frame to the hood with  
4 screws. The marking “FRONT” must be on the  
same side as the control panel (Fig. 20).

6. Adjust the support frame to the desired height  
and secure with 8 screws. The length of the  
support frame can be adjusted in steps of  
3/4 / 20 mm from 15 3/16 / 386 mm to  
25 7/16 / 646 mm (Fig. 21).  
Note:  
ensure that the minimum distance between the  
hob and the extractor hood is maintained –  
24 / 600 mm for an electric hob and 30 / 762 mm  
for a gas hob  
7. Stainless steel ventilation ducts only  
(LK 590-010/020/030):  
pull the protective film off the metal surface.  
8. Place both ventilation ducts over the support  
frame. Take care not to scratch the sensitive  
duct surface.  
9. Attach the electrical plug to the support frame  
with sticky tape so that it can be easily reached  
later.  
Fig. 21  
10. Hang the hood and the support frame with the  
two key-holes to the two screws in the ceiling  
(Fig. 22).  
Attention: the two screws cannot support  
the weight of the hood. Therefore it must be  
supported at this stage!

11. Adjust the hood to the final position and attach it  
with all 4 screws to the ceiling (Fig. 23).  
12. Connect the air outlet pipe.  
13. Connect the hood to the electricity supply.  
14. Pull the top duct unit up into its final position.  
Secure the top duct unit with 4 screws on the  
support frame (Fig. 24).  
Note: avoid scratches when pulling the ele-  
ments apart by placing the assembly template,  
for example, over the top edge of the bottom  
duct to protect it.  
15. Replace the glass plates with the printed side  
facing down. Position the glass plates at the  
chimney side first.  
Note: when putting the glass plates in place,  
make sure that you do not scratch the chimney.  
16. Check the appliance functions correctly.
