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.

The distance (1) from the cooking surface to the range hood
must be at least 458 mm (18 in) . For the best performance,
do not install the range hood more than 710 mm (28 in)
above the cooking surface .
- Dimension (2) should be at least 762 mm (30 in). The range
hood should be approximately the same size as the cook top .

hood is to be installed is recessed, attach appropriately sized wood
filler strips (4) on each side using wood screws.

cabinets, but consult a qualified installer to verify that the supplied
screws are suitable for your cabinets .

range to protect it from damage and dirt during installation .
Remove any hazardous objects around the area .
WARNING:

damper and for power access are in appropriate locations and are of appropriate sizes, as per Fig . 3 if it is top venting or Fig . 4 if it is
back venting . For top venting option (Fig . 3), if you are using the round adapter, the opening should be A and B only . If you are using
the rectangular damper, opening should be B and C only .
