Installing
the hood
Preparation

Determine the exact location of the range hood.
Plan the route for venting exhaust to the outdoors
(f g. ® ).
Plan the power connection prior to installation so
that electrical wiring will not be visible afterwards.
House
wiring
location:
The junction
box is
located on the top right side of the hood. Wiring
should enter the back wall at least 20" above
the bottom of the installation height, and within
3-3/8" to 4-3/4" of the right side of the centerline
(fig. Q/(_).

Use the shortest
and straightest
duct
route
possible.
The
wall
breakthrough
must
be
carried
out by a professional
prior to installing
the
range
hood.
Pay attention
to the
length
of
the
exhaust
hose
when
planning
the
wall
breakthrough.
The exhaust
hose must
reach
the outer edge of the wall without
any kinks.
Important!
If the exhaust hose leads through an
outer wall, install a wall cap with damper or roof
cap at the exterior opening (not delivered). This
can be installed by the professional that performs
the wall breakthrough.
If open fireplaces are operated in the same room,
ask your local chimney sweeper about the local
regulations prior to installation.
If you are renting, then approval must be obtained
from the owner of the property.
Attention!
In order for the range hood to reach
optimal performance, install it over the middle of
the cooking area.
The following accessories are required to mount
the range hood (not included):
--,
Exhaust duct
Power drill with 3/16" and 1/8" bits
Screwdriver

guidelines
For safety reasons, ducting should vent directly
outdoors (not into an attic, underneath the house,
into the garage or into any enclosed space).
Keep duct runs as short and straight as possible.
Duct fittings (elbows and transitions) reduce air
flow efficiency.
Back to back elbow and "S" turns give very poor
delivery and are not recommended.
A short straight length of duct at the inlet of the
remote blower gives the best delivery.
Transition
to duct from the integral blower or
remote duct transition as close to the downdraft
as is possible.
Use a suitable 6" round duct.
