After the range hood installation
height has been determined:
Draw a horizontal line at a distance

above the cooktop equal to the
desired range hood installation height
plus 15 1/2" (394mm) (refer to A).
– This line is the mounting location
of the top of the wooden bracket
supplied with the range hood.
Find the centerline of the cooktop.

centerline up to the horizontal line
drawn in step

between wall mounting slots (
'Product dimensions' section) to hang the
