Figure 1
NOTE: To avoid damage to your hood, prevent debris from entering the vent opening.
Determine and mark the center line on the wall where the range hood will be installed. Make
sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
Due to the weight and size of this unit, please make sure that the support system or
framework being used is stable and secure in the wall or ceiling.
Put a thick, protective covering over counter top, cook top or range to protect from damage
or dirt. Remove any hazardous objects around the area when installing.
Mark the locations of the support mounting bracket holes, ducting cutout (if used) and
power supply cable cutout on the wall or ceiling behind the chimney covers. Use drill and
saber saw or keyhole saw to cut openings for power supply cable and ducting (see Venting
Requirements and Electrical Requirements, Pages 5-8).
If venting to the outside install vent system (see Venting Methods, Page 7). Use caulking to
seal exterior wall or roof openings.
Disconnect main electrical supply, prepare and run electrical wiring through ceiling or wall.
Install a power outlet within reaching distance of the range hood assembly. DO NOT restore
power until installation is completed.
Disconnect power cord, remove the aluminum filter by pressing on the latch toward the
direction of solid arrow while holding the metal handle, gently pull the aluminum filter toward
the direction of dashed arrow as shown in Figure 1.
Remove the grease cup by sliding it sideway, see Figure 2 for location of the grease cup.
