UNDER THE CABINET INSTALLATION

Preparation Before Installation

NOTE: TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR HOOD, PREVENT DEBRIS FROM ENTERING THE VENT OPENING.

Decide the location of the venting pipe from the hood to the outside. Refer to Figure 1.

A straight, short vent run will allow the hood to perform more efficiently.

Try to avoid as many transitions, elbows, and long runs as possible. This may reduce the performance of the hood.

Temporarily wire the hood to test for proper operation before installing.

NOTE: Peel protective film off the hood and parts (if any).

To install hood under a cabinet with recessed bottom, attach 4-inch wide wood filler strips (not included) on each side. Refer to Figure 2.

Using references in Table 1 and Measurements and Diagrams on pages 17-18, create access opening for electrical wires and ducting transition under the cabinet.

Hood Installation

CAUTION: If moving the cooking range is necessary to install the hood, turn off the power in an electric range at the main electrical box. SHUT OFF THE GAS BEFORE MOVING A GAS RANGE.

1.Puncture the knockout holes (for mounting under the cabinet) on the hood as shown in Figure 3.

2.Attach ducting transition to hood exhaust with ten (3/16” x 3/8”) screws (provided). Shown in Figure 4.

3.Draw electrical wires through cabinet access opening.

4.Center the hood beneath the cabinet and flush with the front of the cabinet.

5.From the bottom of the hood, place mounting screw (not provided) through each knockout hole and secure to cabinet bottom. Once all mounting screws are in place, finish tightening screws until secure. CAUTION:

MAKE SURE HOOD IS SECURE BEFORE RELEASING.

6.For safety purpose, extra knockout holes on the back of the hood are provided for a more secure installation. Knock out as many holes as needed and secure with screws (not provided) from the inside of hood.
