Power Supply Cable Installation

1.For direct wire installations, run the home power supply cable according to the National Electric Code or CSA standards and local codes and ordinances. There must be enough wiring from the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box to make the connection in the hood electrical terminal box.

For optional power supply cord kit installations, follow the instructions in the “Make Electrical Connection” section.

NOTES:

Use only with range hood cord connection kits that have been investigated and found acceptable for use with this model range hood.

Do not reconnect power until the installation is complete.

2.Remove the screw from the terminal box cover. Remove terminal box cover and set aside.

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.
