INSTALL SUPPORT SYSTEM
1. At hood location, install 2 x 4 or larger
cross framing between ceiling joists
using dimensions shown.
2. Finish the ceiling surface. Be sure to mark
the location of the ceiling joists and cross
framing (Fig. 6).
3. Mount the four 6x60mm screws to ceiling
in the location shown in figure 7. Allow 1/
4" clearance between screw head and
ceiling (screws will be tightened later).
Make sure the screws are driven into the
center of joists and framing for maximum
strength.

Notes:
a. "-" = Mounting height is not possible.
b. Minimum hood distance above cook top must not be less than 24". A maximum of 36"

Distances over 36" are at the installer and the users discretion; and if ceiling height
and flue length permit.
c. Requires optional 10 / 11' flue extension, ducted model AEIC345SB or non-ducted
