Mounting Distances
Distance between the cooker and the cooker hood must be considered prior to assembly. The distance between the hob and the hood shall be at least 65 cm .

Body Mounting
Drill the product from points A with a Ø8 drill bit and from points B with a Ø6 drill bit as per the dimensions given below. Tap Ø8 and Ø6 dowels. From the points A, perform installation to the body with a Ø5 x 50 mm screw; and from points B, perform installation to the inner flue connection plate with a Ø3.9 x 30 mm screw.
