requirements
Electrical Shock Hazard
0 Electrical ground is required on this
appliance.
l
If cold water pipe Is interrupted by
plastic, non-metallic
gaskets or
other insulating materials, Do Not
use for grounding.
l
Do Not ground to a gas plpe.
l
Do Not modify the power supply
cord plug. If it does not fit the outlet,
have a proper outlet Installed by a
qualified electrlclan.
l
Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or
grounding circuit. A fuse in the
neutral or grounding circuit could
result in an electrical shock.
l
Do Not use an extension cord with
this appliance.
l
Check with a qualified electrician
if
you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance
is properly grounded.
Failure to follow these instructlons
could result in serious injury or death.
If codes permit and a separate grounding
wire is used, It is recommended
that a
qualified electrician
determine that the
grounding path is adequate.
A
n
A 115volt,
60-Hz, AC-only,
fused
electrlcal
supply is required.
The total
ampere
load used, Including
the range
hood, must not exceed
90% of rated
capacity
of the circuit.
The ampere
rating of the range hood is located
on
the serial/rating
plate located
on the
underside
of the range hood.
B
n
It is the personal
responsibility
and
obligation
of the customer
to contact
a
qualified
electrician
to assure that the
electrical
installation
is adequate
and in
conformance
with the Natlonal
ElectrIcal
Code ANSI/NFPA 70-latest
edition'
and all local codes and
ordinances.
C
w The range hood must be
connected
with copper wire only.
D
n
The range hood should be
connected
directly
to the fuse
disconnect
(or circuit
breaker)
box
through
flexible
armored
or non metallic
sheathed
copper
cable.
A U-L,-listed
strain relief must be provlded
at each
end of the power
supply cable.
Wire
slzes (COPPER WIRE ONLY) and
connector
must conform
with the rating
of the appliance
as specified
on the
serial/rating
plate.
Wire sizes must conform
to the
requirements
of the National
Electrical
Code ANSI/NT-PA 70-latest
edition*,
and
oil local codes and ordinances.
Fire Hazard
l
Venting system MUST terminate to
the outside.
l
Do Not terminate the ductwork in
an attic or other enclosed space.
l
Do Not use 4" laundry-type
wall
caps.
l
Do Not use plastic-type
ductwork.
Failure to follow recommended
venting instructions may result in a
fire.
CAUTION: To reduce risk of fire and to
properly exhaust air, be sure to duct
air outside. - Do Not vent exhaust air
into spaces within walls or ceilings or
into attics, crawl spaces or garages.
Ductwork needed for installation is not
included. Backdraft damper supplied
with product must be properly installed.
If roof or wall cap has a damper, Do Not
use damper supplied with hood.
Determine
which
outside
venting
method
needs to be used.
The length
of the ductwork
and number
of elbows
should be kept at o minimum
to provide
efficient
performance.
The
size of the ductwork
should be uniform.
Do Not install two elbows together.
Use
ductwork
system. Ductwork
can
terminate
either thought
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 hood be
vented
vertically
through
the roof
through
7" round ductwork.
Flexible metal ductwork is Not
recommended.
If it is used, calculate
each foot of flexible
metal ductwork
as
two feet of straight
metal ductwork.
Flexible metal elbows
count
twice
as
much as standard
elbows.
Use metal
ductwork
only.
Figures l-4 show common
venting
methods
and what types of materials
are needed.

ductwork
length
Use 3- l/4" x 10" or 7" ductwork
with
a maximum
length
of 26 feet
for ductwork

For best
performance.
use no more than
three 90" elbows.
To calculate
the
length of system you need, odd the
equivalent
feet for each ductwork
piece used in the system.
