Hanging the Range Hood
wArning
Hanging the range hood requires two people. Do not
attempt to lift the hood without assistance.
1. Remove the filters from the bottom of the hood to
reduce the chance of damage during installation. Put
them in a safe location.
2. Remove the plastic coating from the outside of the
hood.
3. Lift the hood into its final position and hold it in place.
4. While holding it in place, mark the desired locations for
the anchors or wood screws through the mounting slots
on the back and top of the hood.
5. Remove the hood from the wall.
6. Drill the pilot or mounting anchor holes. If using mount-
ing anchors insert them into the mounting holes.
7. Lift the hood again into its final position and fasten it in
place. Insert the fasteners through the mounting slots
in the back and top of the hood into the studs, mount-
ing blocks or anchors.
Installation Instructions
Ductwork Installation
wArning
During duct installation, make sure there are no
obstructions that keep the damper flaps on the top of the
hood from opening.
• Install the ductwork starting from the hood, working
toward the outside vent. Observe the specifications on
page 5.
• Fasten all joints with sheet metal screws and seal with
duct tape or certified silver tape.
Final Electrical Installation
wArning
• To avoid electric shock or fire hazard, prior to connect-
ing the electrical wiring to the hood, make sure that
power to the hood power supply line is turned off at
the fuse box or circuit breaker panel.
• Improper connection of the hood electrical wiring may
create an electric shock or fire hazard and may result
in damage to the hood’s electrical system. See page
4 for specifications.
• Do not ground the hood to the neutral (white) power
supply wire. Connect the hood ground wire to a sepa-
rate, properly grounded wire installed by a licensed
electrician.
• Make sure all wire used is capable of handling the
total connected load. See page 3.
1. Turn off power to the electrical circuit that will supply
the hood at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
2. Feed the end of the hood wiring harness through the
wiring access hole as shown.
