PRE-INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
DUCTWORK PLANNING
WALL FRAMING FOR ADEQUATE SUPPORT
IMPORTANT:
Plug the Unit in and Test all Functions Before Installing.
CAUTION: HOOD MAY HAVE VERY SHARP EDGES; PLEASE WEAR PROTECTIVE
GLOVES WHENEVER IT IS NECESSARY TO REMOVE ANY PARTS FOR INSTALLING,
CLEANING OR SERVICING.
• Please read the instructions carefully. Unpack the Range Hood and check
that all functions are working before installing.
• Ensure that the voltage (V) and the frequency (Hz) indicated on the sticker
match the voltage and frequency at the installation site.
• Check that the area behind the installation surface to be drilled is clear of any
electrical cables or pipes, etc.
• The stainless steel surfaces of the Range Hood are very easily damaged dur-
ing installation if scratched or bumped by tools. Please take care to protect the
surfaces during installation.
• Protect the cooktop surface below with cardboard, or the like, to prevent dam-
age occurring during installation.
• The manufacturer shall not be held liable for consumer’s failure to observe
and follow all pre-installation procedures and safety regulations.
• The vertical distance from the cooking surface to the bottom of the range
hood should be at least 24 in. to 36 in. for best performance.
• Determine if your installation will be top venting or back venting, and ensure
that the openings in the cabinet or wall are in the appropriate locations and ap-
propriate size.
• If this is a new installation, choose the venting method that suits your needs.
Cut out openings for the damper and for power access in the cabinet bottom or
exterior wall, depending on the installation method chosen.
•These vent hoods are equipped for 8" round ductwork. This hood may be
vented vertically through upper cabinet or ceiling. A duct transition piece is
supplied for vertical exhaust. You may use elbows (sold separately) to vent
horizontally through the rear wall.
•Determine the exact location of the vent hood.
•Plan the route for venting exhaust to the outdoors.
•Use the shortest and straightest duct route possible. For satisfactory per-
formance, duct run should not exceed 12.5 feet. equivalent length for any
duct configurations.
•Use metal ductwork only.
These vent hoods are heavy. Adequate structural support must be provided.
*Actual length of straight duct plus duct fitting must equivalent. Equivalent
lengths of duct pieces are based on actual tests conducted by Evaluation
Engineering and reflect requirements for good venting performance with any
ventilation hood.
Step 2:
Clearance above stovetop
ranging from 24” to 36” is rec
ommended for optimal perfor
mance.
Please measure accordingly
before mounting this unit.
24" to 36"
Top Mounted Installation
A. Find the key holes at the top of the range hood.
Mark their locations at the installation location (Bottom
of Cabinet) with a pencil or marker.
B. Drill 5/16" (8mm) hole at each of the
marked
locations.
C.
Insert anchors into each drilled hole. Firmly
screw
them into place.
D. Hang your Range Hood into place by aligning the
anchors with the four holes in the top of the range
hood. Push in to place to lock into place
Step 1:
Connect the duct into the
damper.
