INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare Location

NOTE: For vented installations, it is recommended that the vent system be installed before the hood is installed.

Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.

NOTE: The exhaust adapter/damper can be installed up to 1" (2.5 cm) on either side of the hood center to accommodate off- center ductwork.

1.Disconnect power.

2.Determine which venting method to use: roof or wall.

NOTE: For rear venting a Damper Assembly Kit must be used. See “Assistance or Service” section to order.

3.Select a flat surface for assembling the range hood. Place covering over that surface.
