INSTALL MOUNTING

BRACKET

DUCTED and NON-DUCTED HOODS

1.Construct wood wall framing that is flush with interior surface of wall studs. Fig. 7. Make sure:

a)the framing is centered over installation location.

b)the height of the framing will allow the mounting bracket to be secured to the framing within the dimensions shown.

2.After wall surface is finished, secure the mounting bracket to framing with (2) 4.8 x 38mm mounting screws. See chart below for mounting bracket location.

Notes:

a.Minimum hood distance above cook top must not be less than 24”.

A maximun of 30” above cook top is highly recommended for best capture of cooking impurities.

Distances over 30” above the cook top are at the installer’s and user’s discretion; providing that ceiling height and flue length permit.

b.Requires optional 10 foot flue extension, ducted model FX55SS or non-ducted model FXN55SS.
