Preparation
Advanced Preparations:
Be familiar with the controls of the range hood by reading
•
through
Range Hood Operations
,
Page 12.
Place the range hood on a flat, stable surface. Connect the
•
range hood to a designated standard outlet (120-Volt, 60Hz,
AC only) and turn on the range hood. Verify all operations
of the range hood by referring to
Range Hood Operations
Page 13.
Place all supplied parts and required hardware on a flat, stable surface and verify
•
the existence of all supplied parts listed on Page 4.
Carefully remove the white plastic protective coat from the range hood.
•
Preparations:
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
•
Venting Methods
on Page 7.
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.
IMPORTANT: Peel white plastic protective coat off the hood, if any.
•
Use silver tape or duct tape to seal joints between pipe sections.
•
For installing under the cabinet with recessed bottom, attach 4-inch wide wood filler strips (not provided) on
•
each side. Refer to Figure 1.
Using references in
•
Measurements and Diagrams
on Page 16, create access opening for electrical wires and
hood exhaust under the cabinet.
CAUTION: If moving the cooking range is necessary to install the hood, turn OFF the power on an elec-
tric range at the main electrical box. SHUT OFF THE GAS BEFORE MOVING A GAS RANGE.
Puncture the knockout holes (for mounting under the cabinet) on the hood as shown in Figure 2.
•
If necessary, attach two rubber stands with 3M adhesive tapes to the back corners of the hood.
•
Attach ducting transition to hood exhaust with included 10 round head screws as shown in Figure 3.
