Ifcodes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it

is recommended that a qualified electrician determine

that the ground path is adequate.

Do not ground to a gas pipe.

Check with a qualified electrician ifyou are not sure

range hood is properly grounded.

Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.

Save Installation Instructions for electrical inspector's

use.

Qualified Installer, check ifthey perfectly fit with

your cabinet/wall.

4, Do not use flex ducting.

, COLD WEATHER installationsshould have an

additional backdraft damper installed to minimize

backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic thermal

break to minimize conduction of outside

temperatures as part of the ductwork. The

damper should be on the cold air side of the

thermal break.

The break should be as close as possible to

where the ducting enters the heated portion of

the house.

The range hood must be connected with copper wire

only.

The range hood should be connected directly to the

fused disconnect (Or circuit breaker) box through

metal electrical conduit.

Wire sizes must conform to the requirements of the

National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 -- latest edi-

tion*, or CSA Standards 022.1-94, Canadian Electri-

cal Code Part 1 and 022.2 No. 0-M91 - latest edi-

tion** and all local codes and ordinances.

Make up air: Local building codes may require the

use of Make-Up Air Systems when using Ducted

Ventilation Systems greater than specified OFM of

air movement.

The specified OFM varies from locale to locale.

Consult your HVAC professional for specific

requirements in your area.

A U.L.- or C.S.A.-listed conduit connector must be

provided at each end of the power supply conduit (at

the range hood and at the junction box).

The specified CFM varies from locale to locale.

Consult your HVAC professional for specific

requirements in your area.

Typical installation

Min installationheight from the range top to the

bottom of the hood is 30" if a gas range is used

or 24" to 30" if an electric range is used.

These hoods are not recommended to be used

over indoor grills.

The hood may be installed onto a wall and vented to

the outdoors, or it can be installed for recirculating

operation (recirculating accessories not supplied with

the hood).

This hood can be installed over any electric and gas

cooktop/range.

It can not be installed over any professional

cooktop / range.

installing preparation

Advance planning

• Determine the exact location of the vent hood.

Plan the route for venting exhaust to the

outdoors.

Use the shortest and straightest duct route

possible.

Refer to "Ductwork installation guidelines"

paragraph for further informations.

Install a wall cap with damper or roof cap at the

exterior opening. Order the wall or roof cap and

anytransition needed in advance.

Use 8" round metal ductwork only.

Wall framing for adequate support

= This vent hood isheavy.

'Adequate structure and support must be

provided in all types of installations. Thehood

must be secure to vertical studs in the wall, or to

a horizontal support.

The vent hood should be on site before final

framing and wall finishing. This will help to

accurately Iocatethe duct work and electrical

service.

Installation will be easier if the vent hood is

installed before the cook-top and countertop are

installed.

Removing the packaging

Remove carton carefully, Wear gloves to protect

against sharp edges.

Remove the protective film covering the product

before putting intooperation.

installing the hood

Mounting the duct cover bracket

The duct cover bracket should be installedagainst

the back wall and flush with the ceiling. This bracket

will hold the telescopic duct cover in place at the top

(this a extra accessory available not included with the

hood).

Secure the bracket to the wall:

• Align the marked oenterline on the bracket with

the centerline on the wall.

Mark 2 screw hole locations in the wall.

Drill5/16" pilot holes in the marked locations.

Install wall fastener anchors.

Drive wood screws, by hand, into the fastener to

allow anchors to expand. Remove the screws.

Secure the bracket to the wall with wood screws

and/or fasteners.

Ceiling ducting

If the duct will vent straight up to the ceiling:

Use level to draw a line straight up, from the

oenterline on the template to the ceiling.

Measure at least 4 -3/4 "from the back wall to

the circle center of an 8-1/2"hole on the ceiling.

Waft ducting

If ductwork will vent to rear:

Use a levelto draw a line straight up from the

oentedine on the template.

Measure at least 23 - 3/4" (the measure might

vary dependig on the elbow used) above the

pencil line that indicates the bottom installation

height, to the circle center of an 8-1/2,diameter

duct hole (Hole may be elongated for duct elbow).

House wiring location

= The junction box islocated on the top leftside of

the hood.

• Wiring should enter the back wall at least 20"

above the bottom of the installation height, and

within 5-7/8" and 4-7/8"of the left side of the

oenterline.

For Best resuks

Continuous use of the fan system while cooking helps keep the kitchen comfortable and less humid.

Italso reduces cooking odors and soiling moisture that create a frequent need for cleaning.

• Turn the blower on before starting to cook.

Use a rear burner when browning or pan frying meat.

Open a window or inside door slightly.

Clean the filters and the wall behind the filters frequently.

The blower should be turned on for a few minutes before cooking in order to establish air currents upward

through the hood. Thus when heat, smoke, moisture, grease and cooking odors are produced, they will

be carried outside instead of drifting into other rooms.

Use the low speeds for normal use and the higher speeds for strong odors or fumes.

Drafts across the range or cooktop will cause the escape of heat, smoke, moisture, grease and cooking

odors from the hood. Such drafts should be prevented in so far as possible.

The best job of ventilation in the kitchen is done where the only air currents are those created by the

blower itself.

For Gas Cooktops, a lower blower speed should be used if:

the gas flame is being distorted by the air movement.

the burner continually sparks (clicks)

the burner flame repeatedly blows out.
