Property Damage
l
Slide cardboard
or hardboard
under
range before moving range across floor.
Failure to do so could cause damage to
floor covering.
l
Cover countertop,
cooktop or set-in
range with a thick, protective
covering.
Failure to do so may result in property
damage.
Fire Hazard
l
Terminate venting system to outside.
. Do Not terminate the vent in an atlic or
other enclosed space.
Failure to follow these instructions could
result in a fire.
Figure 4
Recommended
ductwork length
Use 3- l/4" x lo" or 7" ductwork with a
maximum length of 26 feet for ductwork
system. For best performance,
use no more
than three 90" elbows. To calculate
the
length of system you need, add the
equivalent
feet for each ductwork piece
used in the system. See the following
examples.
Ductwork needed for installation is not
included.
If roof or wall cap has a damper,
Do Not use damper supplied with hood.
Determine which outside venting method
needs to be used. NOTE: If a non-vented
(recirculating)
installation is desired, follow
instructions on Panel D.
The length of the ductwork and number of
elbows should be kept to a minimum to
provide efficient performance.
The size of
the ductwork should be uniform. Do Not
install two elbows together.
Use duct tape
to seal all joints in the ductwork system.
Ductwork can terminate either through the
roof or wall. Use caulking to seal exterior
wall or roof opening around exhaust hood.
For the most efficient and quiet operation,
it
is recommended
that the range be vented
vertically through the roof through 7" round
ductwork.
Figures l-4 show common venting methods
and what types of materials are needed.

Disconnect and move freestanding
n range from cabinet opening to
provide easier access to upper cabinet and
rear wall. Put a thick protective
covering
over cooktop, set-in range or countertop
to
protect from damage
or dirt.

Determine which venting method
I (roof or wall venting or non-venting)
you need to use. This range hood is shipped
for non-vented
installation.
If non-venting
(recirculating)
installation is
desired, follow instructions on Panel D.
