Positioning the Range Hood.

Determine the center point of the range hood.
This is generally the center of the range. Make
a mark on the wall a minimum of 25" above
the top of an electric range. If the range is gas,
the ideal minimum should be 30".Using a spirit
level, draw a perfectly vertical line, starting at
the center mark, right up to the ceiling or the
highest point to where the hood will extend.
This is the central axis for the range hood.
Draw a horizontal line fractionally above whe-
re the bottom of the range hood will be positio-
ned. This is the underside of the range hood.
Marking the Fixing Holes for the Range
Hood.
Find the marking template provided called
the "Assembly Scheme". Place the template
against the wall. Align the horizontal line on
the wall with the horizontal line on the tem-
plate (indicated by two heavy arrows). Now
align the vertical line on the wall with the
"Central Axis" line on the template.

Gently tape the template to the wall making
sure it has no creases or folds (use a tape
that will not damage the wall finish). There
are three hole positions shown for the wall
bracket.

Using a sharp object, mark the wall through
the template at the center point of the three
holes. Lower down on the template, you will
see three sets of two holes. Only two of these
holes refer to your model. Check which mo-
del you have and, using a sharp object, mark
the two correct holes. These holes are used
to anchor the range hood horizontally from in-
side the hood once it has been hung from the
main bracket. Remove the template.

Fixing the Main Support Bracket

(CAUTION: Do not drill through any utili-
ties inside the wall).
If the range hood will be fixed to drywall we
strongly recommend that you discard the wall
plugs and screws supplied. These anchors are
only suitable for brick/masonry applications. We
suggest the use of a more appropriate anchor
system specifically designed for drywall applica-
tions. Wherever possible, it is advisable to place
blocking between the studs, behind the drywall,
to attach the support bracket to, (refer to Figure 4).

Drill the appropriate size holes at the marks
made earlier and fix the Support Bracket ("S")
securely to the wall. Ensure that any wall an-
chors have been fitted into the lower two ho-
les, as the range hood will cover these holes
once hung on the Support Bracket ("S").
