WIRING CONNECTION REQUIREMENTS
Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by a qualified
person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards,
including fire-rated construction.
OBSERVE ALL GOVERNING CODES AND ORDINANCES WARNINGS
- Electrical grounding is required for this range hood . Check
with a qualified electrician if you are not sure whether the
range hood is properly grounded .
- Failure to follow electrical requirements may result in a
fire.
- A fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit could result in
electrical shock .
- If the hot/cold water pipe is interrupted by plastic
nonmetallic gaskets or other materials, DO NOT use for
grounding .
- DO NOT GROUND TO A GAS PIPE .
IMPORTANT: It is the customer's responsibility to contact a qualified
electrical installer and assure that the electrical installation is
adequate and complies with the National Electrical Code, or CSA
standards, as well as all local codes and ordinances .
1 . Save installation instructions for electrical inspector's use .
2 . If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrician determine if the
ground path is adequate .
3 . DO NOT use an extension cord or adapter plug with this
appliance .
4 . The range hood must be connected with copper wire only .
5 . The range hood should be connected directly to the junction
(or circuit breaker) box through flexible, armoured or
nonmetallic sheathed copper cable . Allow some slack in the
cable so the
appliance can be moved if servicing is ever necessary .
6 . A UL listed or CSA approved conduit connector must be
provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the range
hood and at
the junction box).
7 . When making the electrical connection, cut a 3 .2 cm (1-1/4 in .
hole in the wall . A hole cut through wood must be sanded until
smooth . A hole through metal must have a grommet .
8 . When cutting or drilling into the wall or ceilling, do not damage
electrical wiring and other hidden utilities .
9 . Wire size must conform to all local codes and ordinances .
The latest edition requirements of the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA 70, or the latest edition CSA Standards C22 .1-94,

Risk of electrical shock . This range hood
DANGER:
must be properly grounded .
DANGER: Turn off the power circuit breaker or the
power switch on the junction box before installing this
unit . Touching circuitry inside the range hood while it is
energized will result in death or serious injury .
DANGER: All electrical wiring must be properly installed,
insulated, and grounded . Improper insulation and grounding
will result in deadly electrical shock .
NOTE:
Temporarily wire the range hood to test it for proper operation. If
the range hood does not operate correctly, do not proceed with the
installation.
- Cut a 1 1/4 in . (31 .75 cm) diameter hole in an appropriate
location in the wall for the electrical connection . A hole cut
through wood must be sanded until smooth . A hole through
metal must have a grommet .
- Connect the range hood (A) directly to the junction box or
circuit breaker box with a flexible, armoured, or nonmetallic
sheathed copper cable . Allow some slack in the cable so
the appliance can be moved if servicing is ever necessary .
- Connect a UL-listed or CSA-approved conduit connector to
each end of the power supply cable (at the range hood and
at the junction box).
- Connect the three colored wires (6) from the range hood (A)
to the corresponding wires (7) from the electrical source:
black to black (live), white to white (neutral), and green to
green/yellow (ground) . Cap wires with wire connectors .
- Turn the power on, and ensure that all lights and fans are
operating correctly .
- Once you have tested the electrical connection, disconnect
the power supply cable and wires from the electrical
source before proceeding with the rest of the installation .
