Note: If the instructions for the gas cooktop specify a greater distance, this must be taken into account. Recommended Installation Height for Induction Cooktop To help avoid condensation, particular to cooking with an induction cooktop, Schweigen recommends a height between 700-750mm. Refer to page 20 for further information.

6. Installation Ducting Advice Straight ducting is the most effective installation Keep the curves or bends to a minimum. If they do exist, try to keep the angles as open as possible. Never reduce flue diameter right next Never fit reductions next to curves or bends in to the rangehood outlet fitting.
Do not reduce the ducting diameter, this will reduce airflow. Faulty Installation It is not the responsibility of Schweigen to rectify any incorrect installations. A service call out fee will be charged for any Schweigen technician that attends a call, whereby it is established that the fault is due to an incorrect installation or non-manufacturing fault.
7. Condensation Information _n_. _LH Section_ Cooking with Induction Cooktops Cooking with an induction or similar cooktop, may produce condensation on the rangehood. Unlike basic electric or gas cooking, induction cooktops heat food and liquid instantly, which in turn, produces vapours rapidly. Because of this rapid process, the rangehood filters do not have enough time to warm, which increases the chance of condensation forming.
