Carefully check the range hood for damage and for missing parts
prior to installation . If there is any damage or if you are missing parts,
do not proceed with the installation . Report damage and missing
parts immediately . Do not dispose of packaging before you are
satisfied with your new range hood.
1 . Before installation, measure all distances to ensure the proper
position of the range hood (A) .

must be at least 457 mm (18 in) . For the best performance,
do not install the range hood more than 710 mm (28 in)
above the cooking surface .
- Dimension (2) should be at least 762 mm (30 in). The range
hood should be approximately the same size as the cook top .

hood is to be installed is recessed, attach appropriately sized wood
filler strips (4) on each side using wood screws.

cabinets, but consult a qualified installer to verify that the supplied
screws are suitable for your cabinets .
4 . Put a thick, protective covering over your counter, cooktop, or
range to protect it from damage and dirt during installation .
Remove any hazardous objects around the area .
