® [f possible, disconnect and move freestanding or
slidedn range from cabinet opening to provide easier
access to rear wall. Otherwise put a thick, protective
covering over countertop, cooktop or range to protect
from damage or dirt. Select a flat surface for assembling
the unit. Cover that surface with a protective covering and
place all hood parts and hardware in it.
® Determine and mark the centerline on the wall
where the hood will be installed. If the vent system is
already installed, use center[ine of vent opening.
® If venting horizontally out the back of hood and vent
system is not installed, mark and cut vent opening now.
® Important: If used, Backsplash Kit must be

(76.2 cm) installation height increases, the hood's
capture area decreases.
Determine the height of the hood.
Position the hood on the wall so that the top of the
backsplash is at the height of the bottom edge of
hood. Mark the [ocation of the four corner ho[es. [tis
recommended that the backsplash be attached to the
wall at all four corners. However, the lower flange
can be secured between the wall and backsplash,
countertop or cabinet base without using the bottom
corner screw's.
. Drill 5/16" (8 mm) holes.
. Push the plastic wall anchors all the way into the holes.
° Position the holes in the backsplash over the wall
