Install the hood

NOTE

At least two people will be required to mount the hood.

1.Raise the hood into its mounting position.

2.Align the rectangular opening on the back of the hood with the wall-mounting bracket. Gently lower the hood until it securely engages the bracket. Fig. 9.

3.Level the hood with (2) 3.9x9.5mm mounting screws and secure with (2) 4.8x38mm mounting screws. Use drywall anchors provided if wall studs or framing are not available. Fig. 9.

4.Mount the electrical system plate attaching it with (3) 3.9x9.5mm mounting screws. Fig. 10.

5.On ducted hoods, attach 6" round metal duct between the hood’s blower collar and duct that leads to the outside location (Fig. 11).

6.On non-ducted hoods, attach 5" round metal expandable duct between the 5"- 6" adapter on the hood and the connector on the plenum (Fig. 12).

7.Tape all duct joints to make them secure and air tight.

8.Plug the power cord into the electric wall receptacle. Tuck excess cord behind the flue.
