4. INSTALL BACKSPLASH
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. REMOVE HYBRID BAFFLE FILTERS
Remove tape on filters.
Remove filters from hood and set aside.
NOTE: It is recommended to start with the center one.
6. INSTALL WOOD MOUNTING STRIP
Measure and mark a level line on wall above cooktop location for the wood
mounting strip (see illustration under step 2 for dimensions). Remove wood
mounting strip from back of hood.
Center wood mounting strip over location. 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'' width hood, more as hood width increases); not into the
drywall alone.
