Preparation before Installation
NOTE: TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR HOOD,
PREVENT DEBRIS FROM ENTERING
THE VENT OPENING.
- Decide the location of the venting pipe from the
hood to the outside. Refer to Figure 1.
- A straight, short venting run will allow the hood
to perform more efficiently.
- Try to avoid as many transitions, elbows, and
long run as possible. This may reduce the
performance of the hood.
- Temporarily wire the hood to test for proper
operation before installing. If the hood does
not operate, check the circuit breaker or
house fuse. If the hood is still not working,
disconnect power supply and check the
continuity of all wire connections.
- Peel protective film off the hood (if any).
- Use duct tape to seal the joints between pipe
sections.
- If necessary, prepare back wall frame with cross
framing lumber for secure installation. Using
references on Table 1 and measurements on
page 13-14, decide the level of the lumber.
Refer to Figure 2.
Hood Installation
CAUTION:
USE HAND TOOLS ONLY. DO NOT
OVER TIGHTEN SCREWS. IT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE
TO THE HOOD.
CAUTION
: If moving the cooking range is
necessary to install the hood, turn off the power
in an electric range at the main electrical box.
SHUT OFF THE GAS BEFORE MOVING A GAS
RANGE. And use a protective covering to
protect cooktop and/or countertop from damage.
1. Using references on Table 1 and
measurements on page 13-14, mark the
leveling point of the hood. Position mounting
screws (provided) on the wall, leaving 1/8” away
from the wall as shown in Figure 3.
2. Align Hood-Mounting Bracket to the three
screws on the wall and hook hood into place.
Tighten screws to secure hood to the wall.
CAUTION
: MAKE SURE THE HOOD IS
SECURE BEFORE RELEASING.
