Electrical requirements and installation requirements
Power Requirements
IMPORTANT
Observe all governing codes and ordinances. The customer is responsible for: Contacting an electrician-installer. Check that
the electrical installation is adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI / NFPA 70 (latest edition *)
or CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No.0-M91 (the latest edition **) of the CSA, and all
codes and ordinances in your area. If codes permit and use a wire to separate the ground, it is recommended to check the
path of the wire by an electrician. Do not put the device to land on a gas line. Consult a qualified person if you are not sure that
the hood is properly grounded electrically. Do not install a fuse in the neutral circuit or circuit ground.
Location of the electrical installation
•
The cable must enter the rear wall at least 20 to 1/4 "above the height of the installation base, and between 7-5/8" and 4-7/8
"from the left side of the midline.
MPORTANT
Keep these instructions in order to return them to the electrical inspector. The hood must be plugged directly into a 110 volt
wall outlet.
Before installing the hood
1. To ensure the most efficient ventilation possible, install the pipe in a straight line or with the least elbows possible.
CAUTION: The output of the vent pipe should give to the outside.
2. Two people are required for installation.
3. Supplied hardware can secure the hood to most walls and ceilings, consult a qualified installer to ensure that the
hardware provided is suitable for your type of wall or cabinet.
4.In the case of areas prone to COLD WEATHER,install a check against extra-circulation to minimize the cold air return and a
nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temperature in the duct. The valve must be placed on the side of
the cold air from the heat insulator. The insulation must be placed as close as possible to where the pipe enters the heated
part of the house.
5. Air booster: The building code in your area may require the use of a make-up air system if you use a ventilation system
which leads the movement of air exceeding a certain number of CFM. The number of ft3/min varies from one region to
another. Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area.
Remove the packaging.
CAUTION
Carefully remove the cardboard, gloves to protect against sharp edges.
