INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare Location
■ It is recommended that the vent system be installed before
the range hood is installed.
■ Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the ceiling for exhaust vent.
■ Range hood is to be installed 24" (61.0 cm) min. for electric
cooking surfaces, 30" (76.2 cm) min. for gas cooking
surfaces, to a suggested maximum of 36" (91.4 cm) above
the cooking surface.
1. Disconnect power.
2. Determine which venting method to use: roof or non-vented.
3. Select a flat surface for assembling the range hood. Place
covering over that surface.
4. Using 2 or more people, lift range hood onto covered surface.
5. Remove the motor from the canopy assembly (see the “Motor
Removal” section in this section).
Motor Removal
To remove motor:
1. Remove the filter cover and metal grease filter (see the “Metal
Grease Filters” section in the Range Hood Care section).
2. Disconnect the blower motor wiring at the 9 pin connector.
3. Locate the special ½" (13 mm) tool inside the range hood
blower housing in the left front corner behind the insulation
pad. Use it to loosen the 4 nuts located inside the blower
housing that mounts the motor to the module top cover.
4. Grasp the motor plate and slide the motor toward the
back of the module housing to the large openings in
the keyhole slots.
5. Remove the motor from the range hood.
Range Hood Mounting Screws Installation
1. Determine and mark the centerline on the ceiling where the
range hood will be installed, considering the requirements for
ceiling support structures. See the “Location Requirements”
section. Make sure the range hood is centered over the
cooking surface.
2.
Tape template in place on the ceiling at the marked centerline.
Align the front of the template with the front of the cooktop.
3. Use a pencil to mark the mounting screws, wire access and
duct hole locations on the ceiling.
NOTE: Mounting hole locations must be into the ceiling
support structure. The mounting structure in the ceiling must
be able to support 100 lbs (45.4 kg).
Remove the template.
4. Drill (4) ³⁄₁₆" (4.8 mm) pilot holes at the marked locations on
the ceiling for installing the hanger bolts.
5. Using a T20
®
Torx
®
bit and driver, install the (4) 8 x 80 mm
hanger bolts into the pilot holes. Leave approximately ¾"
(2 cm) protruding down from the ceiling.
6. Screw the nuts on the hanger bolts, but do not tighten.
