Install the Hood
NOTE: All models must have a hood installed prior to operation.
1. Install the hood by sliding it into the slots on the lower edge of the cabinet top.
NOTE: To install the non-combustible finish material flush with the top of the hood, the hood must be installed before
installing the finish material. If finish material is installed flush with the top edge of the hood, the hood cannot be
removed.
NOTE: To install the hood after installing the non-combustible finish material over the black surface above the
fireplace opening, the bottom edge of the finish material must be 5/8” above the top edge of the hood to allow
clearance for installation and removal of the hood.

installed.

1. Open the control compartment door (Page 52).
2. Hold the barrier in front of the glass door and slide it up into the slots above the glass door and under the hood.
