Installation
Packing List
The following accessories should be purchased separately (please contact FOTI LE authorized outlets)

Product Basic Conditions
Installation Suggestions
Installation Position
The range hood is only for family use only; Please do not use the range hood under other conditions. The range hood should be installed above the stove. Keep parallel between the blower outer cover bottom end and cabinet bottom end. The temperature of the range hood should not be more than 40°C. The wall should be none-flammable. Never install the range hood on the flammable wooden wall.
Installation Diagram of Hoods and Cabinets.(Unit:mm)
This installation height is only applicable to electric ranges. If the range hood is installed above a gas hob, the minimum distance between the supporting surface of the cooking appliance on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood should be at least 650mm. If the installation instructions for the gas hob specify a larger installation distance, this should be considered. The installation height of the range hood is the recommended value, and the cupboard and the range hood shown in the figure is for reference only. When the installation height of this product (i.e. the distance between the support surface of the cooking appliance on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood) is lower than 650mm, all parts below 650mm are non-flammable parts of the range hood or parts working under safe and ultra-low voltage, and the deformation of these parts will not affect the protection against the touch of live parts. The kitchen hood shall be installed at the recommended installation height for better fume absorption. The fume absorption performance will be affected to certain extent if the actual installation height is larger than the recommended installation height. If relevant laws in the region stipulate the installation height of range hood, it is recommended to abide by relevant laws, but the oil smoke suction effect of the product may be affected to some extent.
Preparation before installation
- Warning: Please don’t make sundries into exhaust pipe to avoid damaging the range hood. Estimate the exhaust pipe position, please refer to installation diagram. A straight and short exhaust pipe makes smoke extraction more smooth. The joint between exhaust pipe and wall hole should be sealed with tape, and ensure firm connection between exhaust pipe and exhaust cover. Too small wall hole will affect smoke extraction, therefore, please broaden the wall hole to fit exhaust pipe size under safety condition.
- Tool preparation Please prepare the following tools before range hood installation (include but not limited to the following tools).
