It is recommended that the vent system be installed before
hood is installed.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum
before you select your hood.
To avoid damage or dirt, place a thick, heavy covering over
countertop, cooktop, or range.
1. Disconnect power.
2. Determine which venting method to use: roof, wall, or non-
vented.
3. Select a flat surface for assembling the range hood. Place
covering over that surface.
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
range hood.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
4. Using 2 or more people, lift range hood onto covered surface.
Tip the range hood on its back and remove filters and set
aside.
To remove filters:
NOTE: Use 2 hands to remove the filters, one to pull and turn
the knob, the other to hold the filter so that it doesn't fall.
Pull knob forward (toward the front of the hood) while
turning the knob counterclockwise to release the locking
lever.
Slide the filter down and away from the front retaining
channel.
5. Slide apart the chimney covers.
NOTE: To avoid damage to the chimney covers, do not
remove the plastic coverings at this time.
The chimney section of the hood is shipped assembled. It
must be disassembled for installation.
6. Remove the lower chimney cover from the chimney support
by removing the two Phillips screws on the outside bottom of
the chimney cover.
7. Remove the upper chimney cover from the chimney support
by removing the two Phillips screws on the outside top of the
chimney cover.
8. Determine and mark the centerline on the ceiling where the
hood will be installed, making sure that the hood is centered
over the cooking surface.
