1. Installation Requirements

It is recommended that the vent system be installed before

the range hood is installed.

Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance

within the ceiling or wall for vent fittings.

Making the cutout to the bottom of the cabinet may be easier

to do prior to mounting the cabinet to the wall.

1. Disconnect power.

2. Determine which venting method to use: roof, wall, or non-

vented.

3. Select a flat surface for assembling the range hood. Place

covering over that surface.

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install

range hood.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

4. Using 2 or more people, lift range hood onto covered surface.
