Preparation and Setup Meeting Installation Requirements WARNING Observe all governing codes and ordinances during planning and installation. Contact your local building department for further information. Use only ductwork deemed acceptable by state, municipal and local codes. E WARNING To reduce the risk of personal injury caused by reaching over a hot appliance, cabinet storage space located directly above the range should be avoided.
Preparation and Setup Meeting Electrical Codes WARNING Make sure electrical service to the RNIVS is installed by a licensed electrician. It is the owner’s responsibility to confirm that all electrical requirements are met by a qualified electrician who is servicing this appliance. A B The electrical installation, including the minimum supplywire size and grounding, must be in accordance with the National Electric code ANSI/NFPA* (or latest revision), local codes, and ordinances.
Preparation and Setup Planning the Ductwork WARNING • • • • To prevent combustion by-products, smoke or odors from entering the home and to improve efficiency, tape all duct joints securely. Range hoods may interrupt the proper flow of smoke and combustion gases from furnaces, gas water heaters, and fireplaces. To avoid drawing lethal gases into the home, follow the manufacturer’s recommendation for these devices and consult NFPA and ASHRAE recommendations.
Installation Instructions Assembling the Filters Filters are boxed separately and must be assembled during installation. All knobs and hardware are included with the filters. To ensure the correct orientation, make sure the top of the filter lays face-up. The face of the filter has: • plastic peel-away coating • a beveled lip on the inside frame • screw holes up on the ridge (not down in the trough) Instructions 1. Remove the plastic coating and confirm that the inside lip is beveled.
Installation Instructions Installing the Hood Liner Kit #RNIHL The Renaissance® series (RN) Integrated Hood Liner (RNIHL) is available separately and must be installed before the RNIVS. The RNIHL liners are made from of durable, noncombustible stainless steel. The latest Renaissance® design make it an excellent component for any custom hood.
Installation Instructions Attaching the Dual to Single Transition Kit #ATD10 Two 8-inch duct exhausts can be transitioned into one 10-inch duct. • Attach the Dacor transition kit # ATD10 before installing the RNIVS. • This transition kit fits over the top ventilation exits. 10 inch round 2" (5.1 cm) 13" (33 cm) Preparing the ATD10 1. Create a lip around the transition kit by bending the bottom edges backward at right angles to create a 3/4” flange around the base. 21" (53.
Installation Instructions Marking the Centerlines 10 23/32” (27.69 cm) These measurements and marks are for centering the RNIVS and marking the duct cutouts. Have a marking tool and tape measure ready. CL 10 23/32” (27.69 cm) CL 1. Mark the centerline of the cooktop (see image at right). 6 3/16” 3/ 5 4” (15.72 cm) (14.54 cm) 2. Find your model number in the images, Top Exhaust Centerline Dimensions. 3. Measure the top exhaust centerline dimensions overhead. 4.
Installation Instructions Installing the RNIVS WARNING Installing the RNIVS requires two people. Do not attempt to lift and hold the RNIVS without assistance. Wear protective gloves while holding the unit. Sharp edges can cause injury to hands and fingers. NOTE: If using a liner kit with the RNIVS, please follow the instructions on page 13. NOTE: If using the RNIVS without a liner kit, use a 3/8” spacer. See the next page. When hanging the RNIVS, be careful not to scratch or damage the unit. T 1.
Installation Instructions Adding a Spacer If using the RNIVS without a liner kit, use a 3/8” spacer: 3/8” (1.0 cm) depth The flange circling the bottom of the unit will not allow the unit to lay flat against a wall. Therefore, use a 3/8” spacer behind the rear mounting holes to ensure that the unit lays flush against the wall or canopy. bac kc han nel 2 1/8” height (5.04 cm) See images below that illustrate the 3/8” flange extension that prevents the unit from being flush against a wall.
Installation Instructions Hardwiring the Hood WARNING • To avoid electric shock or fire hazard, make sure that power to the RNIVS power supply line is turned OFF at the fuse box or circuit breaker before connecting the electrical wiring. • Miswiring the RNIVS electrical wiring can create an electric shock or fire hazard and could damage the RNIVS’ electrical system. See page 25-26. • Do not ground the wires to the neutral (white) wire.
Installation Instructions Grounding to a Cold Water Pipe WARNING • Do not ground the circuit to a gas line. • Do not ground the circuit to a hot water pipe. • Water lines that are insulated must be jumped to assure continuity to ground. See below. Meter No. 4 copper wire To ground the RNIVS to a cold water pipe, refer to the images on this page. Clamps Bare metal Metal Cold Water Pipe (detail) To house circuit breaker or fuse box Wire nut, 3 places Separate No.
Installation Instructions Inserting Dimmable Light Bulbs Size: PAR16, E26/27 75 Watt max., 60 Amp Make sure dimmable bulbs are used. The electronic board is designed for dimmable light bulbs and using non-dimmable types will cause damage and faulty performance. Shut the main circuit breaker OFF while inserting new bulbs or while changing bulbs. If an electrical short occurs while the main power circuit is ON, significant damage can occur. 1 Follow the diagram to the right. 1.
Installation Instructions Verifying the Setup BACK FAN knob Control Panel LIGHTS knob tens ion c lip Verify the setup to ensure everything functions correctly: 1. Turn the power ON at the circuit panel or fuse box. 2. Assemble the filters if not already done so. 3. Insert the filters gently: Be careful not to scratch the back of the grease channel! • Raise the front edge into the tension clip, and press forward. • Lift the rear edge up and above the grease channel.
Installation Instructions The Installation Checklist WARNING • To ensure a safe and correct installation, the following checklist should be completed by the installer to ensure that no part of the installation has been overlooked. • Proper installation is the responsibility of the homeowner. The importance of proper installation of your Dacor range RNIVS cannot be overemphasized.
