For optional power supply cord kit installations, follow the instructions in the “Make Electrical Connection” section. See the “Accessories” section for information on ordering.

NOTE: Do not reconnect power until the installation is complete.

5.Position the range hood so that the large end of the keyhole slots are over the mounting screws. Then push the hood toward the wall so that the screws are in the neck of the slots. Tighten the mounting screws, making sure the screws are in the narrow neck of slots.

6.Connect ventwork to hood. Seal joints with vent clamps or duct tape to make secure and airtight.
