PLANNING INSTALLATION
Number of people required:
2 or more
Carefully check the range hood for damage and for missing parts
prior to installation . If there is any damage or if you are missing parts,
do not proceed with the installation . Report damage and missing
parts immediately . Do not dispose of packaging before you are
satisfied with your new range hood .
1 . Choose a location for your range hood . The range hood location
should be away from strong draft areas, such as windows, doors,
and strong heating vents .
2 . Measure all distances to ensure the proper position of the range
hood (A) and chimney set (B, C) .
- The size of the range hood installation location must have a
width (1) of at least 29 .5 in . (750 mm) and a depth (2) of at
least 19 .7 in . (500 mm) deep (2) to accommodate the size of
the range hood (A) .
- The minimum distance (3) from the cooking surface to
the range hood is 18 in . (458 mm) for electric ranges, and
29 .5 in . (750 mm) for gas ranges . If your gas range specifies
a different distance, use the greater distance of the two . To
get the best performance, this distance should range from
18 in .–29 .5 in . (458 mm–750 mm) .
3 . Toggle bolts are provided to secure the hood to most wall types .
However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the bolts,
screws and drywall anchors for your wall type .
4 . Due to the size and weight of this range hood, the supports must
be firmly attached to the wall . For plaster or sheet rock walls, the
support must be attached to the studs . If this is not possible, a
support structure must be built behind the plaster or sheet rock .
5 . Put a thick, protective covering over your counter, cooktop, or
range to protect it from damage and dirt during installation .
Remove any hazardous objects around the area .
WARNING:
Always wear safety goggles and gloves
during installation .
NOTE:
Do not remove the plastic covering on the chimney
set at this time, as it protects the chimney set from
scratches during installation .
