INSTALLATION (CONTINUED)
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
This range hood must be properly grounded. Make sure it is installed by a qualified electrician in accordance
with all applicable national and local electrical codes. Before connecting wires, switch power off at the
service panel and lock service panel to prevent power from being switched on accidentally.
INSTALLATION OF THE UNIT

Install 6" round adapter/damper on top of the hood using four (4) no. 8 x 7/16" mounting screws.

Align the hood and center it above the hood mounting bracket. Gently lower the hood until it
securely engages the bracket.

With the hood hanging in place, drill through both holes located at the back of the hood using a
5/16" drill bit (see Fig. 2).

Insert the included drywall anchors into the drilled holes (one for each hole). Insert two (2) no. 8 x
1¼" mounting screws in two (2) washers, then insert into the drywall anchors. Verify that the hood
is centered and leveled. Tighten all screws completely.

Remove protective plastic film covering the lower chimney only.

If possible (when space is sufficient), install the lower chimney bracket to the chimney using two (2)
no. 8 x 7/16" mounting screws, making sure that the slots point up (see Fig. 3).

Carefully place both chimneys on top of the hood. NOTE: Slightly slide up the upper chimney to
avoid damaging it.

Slide a 6" metal round duct over the adapter/damper (see Fig. 2). Use metal foil duct tape to seal
the joint.

Plug hood power cord into the outlet.

Slide up the upper chimney until it is aligned with its mounting bracket. The bracket must be inside
the chimney. Secure the upper chimney to its bracket using two (2) no. 8 x 7/16" mounting screws.

Remove protective plastic film covering the upper chimney and the hood.
