Excessive Weight
Require three or more persons to move
and install this range hood. Spinal or
other bodily injuries could occur if it is
not followed.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Observe all governing ordinances and local codes and consult with a qualified electrician for any electrical
wiring problems. It is the customer’s responsibility:
•
To contact a qualified electrical installer.
• To assure that the electrical installation is adequate and in compliance with National Electrical Code
and all local codes and ordinances.
•
Provide a circuit protected power service, preferably a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (“G.F.C.1.”):
120-volt, 60 Hz, AC, with at least 2-amps of available service.
•
Enlist a qualified electrician to ensure the range hood and electrical lines are adequately grounded
and properly protected. Never electrically ground to a gas pipe.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
• Save this Installation Guide for future reference and/or electrical inspector use.
• The range hood should be connected with a circuit breaker protected power service.
•
Wire sizes (copper wire only) and connections must conform with the rating of the appliance as
specified on the model/serial rating label.
PREPARATION
Advanced Preparations
•
Place the range hood on a flat, stable surface. Connect
the range hood to a designated standard outlet. Turn on
the range hood to test if it works well. Then turn it off.
•
Place all supplied parts and required hardwares on a flat,
stable surface.
• Carefully remove the white plastic protective coat from
the chimney covers and the range hood.
• Determine weather your household ducting has a
draft damper system. Only one draft damper system is
recommended for proper efficiency.
• Install the draft damper system onto the range hood
before installing the range hood.
If you are using a draft
damper system within the household ducting, the draft
dampers are not needed to be used on the range hood.
