UNDER CABINET INSTALLATION
Preparation before Installation
NOTE: TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR HOOD, PREVENT
DEBRIS FROM ENTERING THE VENT OPENING.
-
Decide the location of the venting pipe from the
hood to the outside. Refer to Figure 1.
-
A straight, short vent run will allow the hood to
perform more efficiently.
-
Try to avoid as many transitions, elbows, and long
run as possible. This may reduce the performance
of the hood.
-
Temporarily wire the hood to test for proper
operation before installing. If the hood does not
operate, check the circuit breaker or house fuse.
If the hood is still not working, disconnect power
supply and check the continuity of all wire
connections.
-
Peel protective film off the hood (if any).
-
Use duct tape to seal joints between pipe sections.
-
For installing under the cabinet with recessed
bottom, attach 4-inch wide wood filler strips (not
included) on each side. ( Figure 2)
-
Using reference on Page 16 to measure and create
access opening for electrical wires and exhaust
under the cabinet.
