Step 2:
• Install the range hood (1) either with wood screws
or long screws, depending on the wall type:
Wall type Required screws
Wood 4 wood screws (11)
Brick/Concrete 4 long screws (8)
Electrical connections
Step 4:
• Loosenthe2shortscrewsfromthejunctionbox

• Connect the incoming positive, neutral and
ground cables to the respective terminals. The
ground cable is already pre-assembled onto the

NOTE
Sometimes, sponge tape covers the holes. If the
holes are located behind the sponge tape, simply
insert the screw through the sponge tape.
Step 3:
• Mount upper and lower brackets (3, 4) on the
wall. Secure with the remaining 4 sets of long
screws (8). The notches of the lower bracket

• Attachthe exhaustduct. Inthe examplebelow
a round metal duct furnace pipe has been used.
The airtight connection of the exhaust duct
should then be improved with a duct tape. This
