How to Install Your Range Hood

UC-PS18 USER MANUAL

11

1. Test the Unit

Plug the unit into an outlet and press the touch panel to make 
sure that the unit is working.

     IMPORTANT:

 

If the range hood is not working properly, 

please contact us immediately (1-800-929-0168 / 
[email protected]).

4. Screw It Into Place

From the bottom of the hood, carefully insert the mount-
ing screws (AA) with washers into each of the pre-drilled 
mounting holes in the range hood. Start with the front left, 
then front right. 
After the screws are in place for the front mounting holes, 
work on the rear left, then rear right. If you feel that you 
need to install the range hood more securely, you can use 
the additional two mounting screw holes in the front/cen-
ter. 

TIP: To easily reach the rear mounting holes, use an 
extension tool for the power drill.

3. Jack Up the Hood

If you are not removing the range, place the plywood (30” x 
24”) over the range / cooktop to avoid possible damage. Put 
the cabinet jacks on the plywood and place the second piece 
of plywood over the two cabinet jacks. Using the cabinet 
jacks, lift the hood into its position under the cabinet. Ensure 
that the adapter and power cord enter the cabinet openings 
and that the power cord is not pinched between the hood 
and the cabinet. 
If you do not wish to use a cabinet jack, you will need three 
people. Have two helpers holding the range hood in place 
while the third person inserts the screws to mount the range 
hood. For cabinet jack operation, please refer to its manual.

2. Uninstall the Range Hood’s Bottom Cover

Remove the baffle filter from the hood by pushing the filter 
knob inward. Slowly pull the filter down and remove gently 
from the range hood. Then, remove the bottom cover by 
carefully unscrewing the eight screws as shown.
