STEP 7

Cabinet Preparations

• Start with the custom hood base, because its position will

determine the height of the insert.

• We recommend the base of the custom hood should be 3/4 inch

thick plywood. If an optional custom hood liner will be installed,

we recommend the sides and front of the custom hood to be

3/4 inch thick, assuming standard cabinet widths. If the optional

custom hood liner will not be installed, the custom hood side and

front thickness is at the installer’s discretion.

• Cut a hole in the bottom of the cabinet, using the dimensions

shown on gure 1.

14 in./

35.5 cm

26.9 in. / 68.3 cm (28 in.)

32.8 in. / 83.3 cm (34 in.)

44.6 in. / 113.2 cm (46 in.)

Warning: The framework must be positively secured to wall studs or other wooden framework behind the

drywall. Make sure it is capable of supporting its own weight. Failure to do so may cause personal injury or

damage to countertop or cooktop.

STEP 8

Installation of Brackets

• L shaped bracket mounting screws are provided for convenient

installation

• Using screws and L shaped brackets provided, install each L

shaped bracket through pre-drilled mount holes (See gure 2).

Figure 2

Due to some installation differences with custom hoods, the L brackets may not work. Before

installing insert please determine if brackets will work for your installation needs.
