KICU465S

Electrical: 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-amp, fused electrical curcuit is required. Use copper wire only.

VENTING REQUIREMENTS

Note: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduce performance.

Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent through a wall, a 90° elbow is needed.

INSTALLATION CLEARANCES

Note: The hood chimneys are adjustable and designed to meet varying ceiling or soffit heights depending on the distance “X” between the bottom of the hood and the cooking surface. For higher ceilings, a 40” (101.6 cm) Chimney Extension Kit Part Number 8212698 (Black), Kit Part Number 8212696 (Stainless Steel) or Kit Part Number 8212697 (White) is available. See your dealer. The chimney extension replaces the upper chimney

See NOTE shipped with the hood.

To calculate the length of the system you need, add the equivalent feet (meters) for each vent piece used in the system.

Vent piece	6" (15.2 cm) round
45° elbow	2.5'
	(0.8 m)
90° elbow	5.0'
	(1.5 m)

Maximum equivalent vent length is 35' (10.7 m).

Example Vent System

90º elbow		Wall cap
	6' (1.8 m)

		Maximum length	=	35' (10.7 m)
	2’
(0.6 m)		1 — 90° elbow	=	5' (1.5 m)
		8' (2.4 m) straight	=	8' (2.4 m)
		1 — wall cap	=	0' (0 m)
		system length	=	13' (3.9 m)

X

36" (91.4 cm) Countertop height

Important:

■Minimum distance “X”: 24” (61.0 cm) Suggested maximum distance

“X”: 30” (76.2 cm)

■For vented installations, the chimney can be adjusted for ceilings between 7’ 7-1/8” (2.31 m) and 9’ 1-3/4” (2.79 m).

■For non-vented (recirculating) installations, the chimney can be adjusted for ceilings between 8’ 3-3/8” (2.52 m) and 9’ 5-1/4” (2.88 m).

Important:

As hood height (distance X) increases, hood's venting effectiveness decreases.
