Install Range Hood
1. Remove the grease filters. See the “Range Hood Care”
section.
2. Remove mounting screws and lateral supports.
3. For vented installations:
■
Depending on your installation, remove either top or rear
rectangular vent knockout. If using round vent, remove
top rectangular knockout.
NOTE: Do not remove rectangular knockouts if
installation of range hood is to be non-venting
(recirculating).
■
Make sure damper pivot is nearest to top/back edge of
range hood.
■
Remove tape from damper flap.
NOTE: The exhaust adaptor/damper can be installed up
to 1" (2.5 cm) on either side of the hood center to
accommodate off-center ductwork.
■
If using rectangular vent, attach rectangular damper/vent
connectors to the range hood using sheet metal screws.
■
If using round vent, attach vent transition piece
(purchased separately) to range hood top using sheet
metal screws.
NOTE: If the wall cap is directly behind the vent
connector, the dampers in the connector and wall cap
must not interfere with each other. Remove the vent
connector damper if they interfere.
4. Lift the range hood up under cabinet and determine final
location by centering beneath cabinet. Mark on the underside
of cabinet the location of the 4 keyhole mounting slots on the
range hood. Set range hood aside on a covered surface.
