INSTALLATION:
STEP 2: VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
HOOD PLACEMENT:
WARNING: DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the unit.
For best smoke elimination, the lower edge of the hood should be installed a minimum of 30" to a maximum of 36" above
the range cooking surface.
CAPITAL Hood blower speeds are variable to reduce noise and loss of heated or air-conditioned household air when
maximum ventilation is not required. Normally the maximum blower speed is only required when using the grill section.
Any openings in the wall behind the range and in the floor under the range must be sealed.
When there is less than 12" horizontal clearance between combustible material D and the back edge of
the range above the cooking surface, a Capital Low Back or High Shelf back guard must be installed
(see Fig. 2A). When clearance to combustible material D is over 12", a Capital Island Trim may be used
(See Fig. 2B). Figures 2A and 2B indicate the space required for each type of back guard.
Always keep appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.
CAUTION: Ventilation hoods and blowers are d e s i g n e d f o r u s e w i t h s i n g l e w a l l d u c t i n g . However, some local
building codes or inspectors may require double wall ducting. Consult local building codes and/or local agencies,
before starting, to assure that hood and duct installation will meet local requirements.
SELECT HOOD AND BLOWER MODELS:
It is strongly recommended that a suitable CAPITAL exhaust hood be installed above the range. Downdraft ventilation
should NOT be used. The table below indicates the PRECISION Series Hoods, by model number, that are
recommended for use with all ranges.

For wall installations, the hood width must, at a minimum, equal the width of the range's cooking surface. Where space
permits, a hood larger in width than the cooking surface may be desirable for improved ventilation performance.
WARNING: DO NOT lift the range by the oven door handles, Do not remove the griddle and grill sections!
Lift the range from the skid with a soft wheel dolly.
Support the range uniformly across the bottom
To remove door, open the door completely, close the hinge latches and release the door. Remove door by lifting and
pulling from the sides.
Make sure gas and electric connections are made, anti-tip device is installed, and the back guard installed prior to placing
the range in position.
Measure the height of the counter top and adjust the range height to match countertop height by adjusting front and rear
leveling feet.
Slide the range in place and ensure that the range is level.
Reinstall the kick plate, top grates, oven door(s), drip pan tray(s), and make sure burner caps are seated firmly located
into position.
