WARNING
• Observe all governing codes and ordinances during installation. Contact your local building department for fur-
ther information.
• A qualified technician must complete the installation of this built-in appliance. The owner is responsible to make
sure the hood is properly installed.
• Do not install the range hood unless the power supply provided meets the required Electrical Specifications
(see page 3).
• To avoid an electric shock hazard and property damage, locate electric wires and water pipes and avoid drilling
or cutting in the vicinity.
• The range hood is heavy. To prevent personal injury and property damage install the hood only as specified in
the following instructions and use only the hood mounting bracket provided with the unit. Make sure all screws
used to mount and assemble the hood are tight. Failure to properly anchor the hood to the wall may result in
personal injury due to the unit falling. Hanging the range hood requires two people. Do not attempt to lift the
hood without assistance.

Duct Work Design Tips
■ Wherever possible, reduce the number of transitions
and turns to as few sharp angles as possible. Two
staggered 45° angles are better than one 90°.
■ Keep turns as far away from the hood exhaust as
possible, and as much space between bends as pos-
sible.
■ For best performance, use round duct instead of rect-
angular, especially when elbows are required.
■ If multiple elbows are used, try to keep a minimum of
24 inches straight duct between them.
■ Avoid “S” or “back to back” use of adjacent elbows.
■ In regions where the weather gets extremely cold,
use thermal breaks, such as a short section of
non-metallic duct, to avoid indoor heat loss. Locate
the break as close as possible to the outside pass
through point.
■ Do not use flexible metal duct.
■ DO NOT use duct work that is smaller in cross-sec-
tional area than the recommended types above.
