• Plan for electrical connection (220 Volts).

4.2 Mounting the Hood

1. Mark the drilling points on the wall using the provided template or the hood's dimensions.
2. Drill holes and insert wall plugs.

4.3 Ventilation Modes

Your range hood supports two operational modes:

• Ducted Extraction Mode: Air is extracted from the kitchen, filtered through the aluminum grease filters, and expelled outside through the 1.5-meter exhaust duct. Carbon filters are not required for this mode.
• Recirculation Mode: Air is drawn into the hood, filtered through both the aluminum grease filters and the CBCF002X2 carbon filters to remove odors, and then recirculated back into the kitchen. This mode is ideal when external venting is not possible.
