10. Mount Range Hood
■ Lift the range hood into place, positioning the rear slots over
the mounting brackets.
■ Using a Phillips screwdriver, push on the screws that are
started into the top mounting tabs and bend the tabs against
the cabinet side walls. Attach the screws to the cabinet side
walls.
■ For direct wire installations, run the home power supply cable
according to the National Electric Code or CSA standards
and local codes and ordinances. There must be enough
wiring from the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box to
make the connection in the range hood electrical terminal
box.
■ Tighten the strain relief screws.
NOTE: Do not reconnect power until the installation is
complete.
OPTIONAL: If you prefer, bend the rear tabs against the rear
of the range hood and attach to the wall using #8-18 x ⁵⁄₈"
(4.2 x 16 mm) truss-head screws.
11. Connect Vent System
■ Connect the ventwork to the range hood.
■ Seal joints with vent clamps or duct tape to make secure and
airtight.
■ Check that the back draft dampers work properly.
12. Make Electrical Connection
Option 1 - Direct Wire Installations
■ Use a UL Listed/CSA Approved wire connector and connect
the 2 white wires (A) together.
■ Use a UL Listed/CSA Approved wire connector and connect
the 2 black wires (B) together.
■ Connect the green (or bare) ground wire (C) from the power
supply to the green ground screw in the electrical box and
tighten the screw securely.
Reinstall the electrical box cover.
Reconnect power.
Option 2 - Power Cord Kit Installations
For optional power cord kit installations, follow the instructions
supplied with the power cord kit. See the “Assistance or Service”
section for information on ordering.
13. Complete the Installation
■ Replace the 2 bottom panels.
- Position the panel with the small tabs toward the front of
the range hood and the wide flange toward the center of
the range hood. Place the back of the panel into the rear
channel and push the panel toward the back of the range
range hood until the tabs on the front of the panel clear
the front mounting flange.
- Slide the panel toward the outside edge of the range
hood and push the front of the panel up until the panel
tabs align with the slots in the front. Release the panel so
the tabs lock the panel in place.
■ Replace the filter. See the “Range Hood Care” section.
- For vented installations: Install a metal filter.
- For non-vented (recirculating) installations: Install a
charcoal filter.
Check the operation of the range hood fan and lights. See the
“Range Hood Use” section.
If the range hood does not operate, check to see whether a
circuit breaker has tripped or a household fuse has blown.
Disconnect the power and check the wiring connections.
NOTE: To get the most efficient use from your new range hood,
read the “Range Hood Use” section.
