PLAN THE DUCTWORK

The Velvet slideout rangehood is designed to offer wide flexibility of installations. The rangehood can be ducted through a 6" round vent. The unit can also be installed in a recirculating configuration. The unit comes standard in the top venting position. FIGURE 3 shows recirculating installation.

The Velvet requires 6" round ductwork. To ensure that the blower performs to its highest possible capacity, ductwork should be as short and straight as pos- silbe.

The ductrun should not exceed 35 feet if ducted with the required minimum of 6" round duct. Cal- culate the length of the ductwork by adding the equivalent feet in FIGUREA for each piece of duct in the system An example is given in FIGURE B.

For best results, use no more than three 90° elbows. Make sure that there is a minimum of 24" of straight duct between elbows if more than one is used. Do not install two elbows together. If you must elbow right away, do it as far away from the hood's exhaust opening as possible.

45˚ Elbow	3.0 feet
90˚ Elbow	5.0 feet

For direct rear venting (FIGURE 2), you must change the blower position. Remove the 12 screws that hold the metal housing to the rangehood body. Remove the 4 screws that hold the blower housing to the metal housing. Rotate the blower 90 degrees toward the back and then flip it over 180 degrees. Be sure that the power supply cable is properly positioned. Replace all screws, making sure that they are firmly fastened.

RECIRCULATING INSTALLATIONS

For recirculating installations (FIGURE 3), Charcoal Filters are necessary. Open the comfort panel by turning the knobs to the right, slide open the glass visor, and remove the grease filters and set aside. Attach one charcoal filter to each end of the blower. Each charcoal filter attaches to the of the side of the blower. Rotate the filter clockwise to install and counterclockwise to remove (FIGURE 3A). Replace the grease filters and reattach the comfort panel. Some ductwork must be installed to exhaust the rangehood back into the kitchen, either at the top of the cabinet or at the face of the soffit. Using a plastic vent grate to cover the duct opening. This duct work must not terminate into a dead air space.
