insulation to be colored; use a permanent
marker.
 Insert the 14/3 cable along with the 14/2 house wiring cable in the
hood through an UL approved wire clamp, suitable for 2 cables.
Add a GROUND wire and connect one end to the GREEN ground
screw. Use an appropriate wire nut to connect the other end of the
added GROUND wire with the ground wire coming from the 14/3
cable and the ground wire coming from 14/2 house wiring cable.
 Connect BLACK wire from house wiring to WHITE wire from
14/3 cable using an appropriate wire nut.
 Connect BLACK wire from 14/3 cable to BLACK wire from range
hood wiring using an appropriate wire nut.
 Connect WHITE wire from house wiring to WHITE wire range
hood wiring using an appropriate wire nut.
 Run RED wire from 14/3 cable through bend plate wiring opening
for hood control connection. See next page for RED wire
