Determine the exact location of the vent hood. Mark the location. Find the centerline of the cooktop.
Use a level to draw a vertical straight pencil line on the wall.
Plan the route for venting exhaust to the outdoors. Use the shortest and straightest duct route possible.
Long duct runs, elbows and transitions will reduce the performance of the hood. Use as few of them
as possible. Larger ducting may be required for longer duct runs.
Install a wall cap with damper or roof cap at the exterior opening/wall. Join the wall or roof cap to the
ductwork.
Connect round metal ductwork to cap and work back towards the hood location. Use 2" metal foil duct
tape to seal the joints.
INSTALLATION DRAWINGS
The minimum hood distance above a cooktop must be no less
than 28" for an electric cooking surface and no less than 30"
for a gas cooking surface.
Distances over 30" are at the installer's and users' discretion,
providing that ceiling height permits.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
WARNING
THIS RANGE HOOD MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED. TURN OFF ELECTRICAL POWER AT SERVICE ENTRANCE
BEFORE WIRING. CHECK TO MAKE SURE THAT THE ELECTRIC CHORD IS NOT IN CONTACT WITH THEE SHARP
EDGES OF THE APPLIANCE.
IMPROPER GROUNDING CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN IF
THE GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT COMPLETELY UNDERSTOOD OR IF THERE IS DOUBT AS TO
WHETHER THE APPLIANCE IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD. IF THE POWER
SUPPLY CORD IS TOO SHORT, HAVE A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN INSTALL AN OUTLET NEAR THE APPLIANCE.
This appliance must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug.
Set the electrical power supply within the space covered by the decorative chimney.
Position the outlet offset so that the power cord will not interfere with the round duct.
Make sure this does not interfere with a mounting bracket fastening area or with the decorative
chimney (where the chimney touches the wall)
