INSTALLATION
This range hood series can be:
•
Installed under the cabinet ONLY.
1. Installing the Range Hood Under the Cabinet
•
For installing under the cabinet with recessed
bottom, attach a 4" wide wood filler strip (not
provided) on each side.
Attach wood filler strips
•
Use a stud finder to locate and mark 2 studs
inside the wall.
•
Make 2 cutouts on the top and bottom of the
cabinet that align with the outlet of the top
vent on the Hood. The diameter of the cutout
should be slightly larger than the diameter of
the duct.

The following steps require 2 or more people:
•
Draw the power cord through the bottom
cutout and align the range hood beneath
the cabinet so that the exhaust on the
Hood and the cutout are in line.
•
Raise and screw the top of the Hood to
the bottom of the cabinet through the
knockout holes shown below:
•
Tighten all screws until the range hood is
securely mounted to the bottom of the
cabinet.
Make sure the range hood is securely mounted
before releasing.
•
For a more secure installation, install
additional screws into the pre-drilled
holes on the backplate of the range hood
to secure it to the studs or lumbers. If the
pre-drilled holes don't align with the studs
or lumbers, drill new holes on the backplate
instead.
Note
For rear venting, install the top cover
and the rear vent adapter before the
installation.
2. Connecting the Vent System
• Use 6" round or 3-1/4 x 10" rectangular metal
duct (or semi-rigid aluminum duct, follow the
local building codes) to connect the exhaust on
the Hood to the duct-work above.
•
Use aluminum foil tape or duct tape to seal all
connections.
3. Electrical Connection
WARNING: Electrical Shock Hazard. Disconnect
power before servicing.
