for the
electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug.

Position the outlet offset so that the power cord will not interfere with
the round
duct.

IMPORTANT
:
Observe the provisions of all applicable codes and regulations.
Refer the installation of the hood to a qualified installer. It is the installer's responsibility to respect the required
separation distances
.
Install the range hood away from any area exposed to drafts, such as windows, doors, and heating vents.
Observe the dimensions indicated for the opening to be cut in the cupboard. These dimensions take into account the
minimum values of separation clearances. Before cutting, also refer to the instructions on the cooktop or cooker,
above which you will place the hood.
The hood is factory-configured for installation with exterior discharge through the roof or wall.
Seal each opening cut in the ceiling or wall for the installation of the hood with duct tape.
