INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare Location
■ It is recommended that the vent system be installed before
hood is installed.
■ Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
■ Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum
before you select your hood.
1. Disconnect power.
2. Determine which venting method to use: roof, wall,
or non-vented.
3. Select a flat surface for assembling the range hood.
Place covering over that surface.

(61.0 cm) for an electric cooking surface, a minimum of
30" (76.2 cm) for a gas cooking surface, and a suggested
maximum of 36" (91.4 cm) above the range to the bottom
of the hood. Mark a horizontal reference line on the wall.
