Install Backsplash; Install Wood Mounting Strip; Install The Hood; Select Blower Option (Exterior Or Interior) - Broan Elite RM60000 Serie Instructions

4. INSTALL BACKSPLASH (OPTIONAL)
(Optional) RMP Series
Backsplash must be installed before the hood shell because the hood shell covers the backsplash top mounting
screws. In order to be able to install the backsplash, make sure you have at least 18'' clearance between bottom of
hood and range control panel or cooktop. (See instructions packed with backsplash.)

5. INSTALL WOOD MOUNTING STRIP

Measure and mark a level line on wall above cooktop location for the wood mounting strip (see illustration below and under
step 2). Use no. 10 - 2'' flat head screws to secure the mounting strip to the drywall. Make sure to hit the wall studs.
Due to the weight of this hood, ensure that the wood strip
is attached to all of the available studs (2 studs minimum
for a 30'' hood, more as wood width increases); not into
the drywall alone.

6. INSTALL THE HOOD

Rest the back cavity of the hood on the wood mounting strip.
Hold the hood until it is completely secured to the wood
mounting strip.
Secure the hood to wood mounting strip with (4) screws no. 8 x 3/4'' (for
30'' and 36'' width hoods) or (6) screws (for 42'' width and wider hoods)
provided at locations shown. Drill (2) 3/16'' size holes into the drywall for
wall anchors through the existing holes in the inside hood back in the
locations shown. Then, install the two wall anchors with the remaining
no. 8 x 3/4'' screws and the (2) washers provided.

7. SELECT BLOWER OPTION (EXTERIOR OR INTERIOR)

INTERIOR BLOWER: Follow all subsequent steps of this manual.
EXTERIOR BLOWER: Refer to instructions packed with exterior blower and follow steps 9 and up of the present manual.
8. INSTALL TRANSITION TO ROUGH-IN PLATE (INTERIOR BLOWER ONLY)
Model 423, 424, 427 453, or 454
Attach transition (if required) to blower rough-in plate.
Use duct tape to make all joints secure and air-tight.
NOTE: Model RM325H blower plate connects directly to 7'' round
ductwork without a transition.
