Illustration

Case 1 – Common case

A hood is close to a hob, the rule is triggered and informs the user to change the position of this hood. An animation is displayed to guide the user through the changes.

Once the user has moved the hood away from the hob to a distance greater than or equal to 650 mm (the overload value in this example).

After clicking Refresh the check on the Help center, the design is now error free.

Case 2 – Built-in hood with fan

In the specific case of a built-in hood with fan, the rule checks the distance.

Once the user has moved the hood away from the hob to a distance greater than or equal to 560 mm (the overload value in this example).

After clicking Refresh the check on the Help center, the design is now error free.

Case 3 – Built-in hood with fan with gas

In the specific case of a built-in hood with fan with gas, the rule checks the distance.

Once the user has moved the hood away from the hob to a distance greater than or equal to 560 mm (the overload value in this example).

Case 4 – Built-in hood with fan without gas

In the specific case of a built-in hood with fan without gas, the rule checks the distance.

Once the user has moved the hood away from the hob to a distance greater than or equal to 560 mm (the overload value in this example).

Case 5 – Freestanding hood with gas

In the specific case of a freeStanding hood with gas, the rule checks the distance.

Once the user has moved the hood away from the hob to a distance greater than or equal to 650 mm (the overload value in this example).

Case 6 – Freestanding hood without gas

In the specific case of a freeStanding hood without gas, the rule checks the distance.

Once the user has moved the hood away from the hob to a distance greater than or equal to 650 mm (the overload value in this example).

Case 7 – Angled hood case

In the specific case of a angled hood case, the rule checks the distance.

Once the user has moved the hood away from the hob to a distance greater than or equal to 650 mm (the overload value in this example).
