Save Installation Instructions for electrical inspector's use.

Qualified Installer, check if they perfectly fit with your cabinet/wall.

4, Do not use flex ducting.

, COLD WEATHER installationsshould have an

additional backdraft damper installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic thermal

break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the ductwork. The

damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break.

The break should be as close as possible to where the ducting enters the heated portion of

the house.

The range hood must be connected with copper wire only.

The range hood should be connected directly to the fused disconnect (Or circuit breaker) box through

metal electrical conduit.

Wire sizes must conform to the requirements of the

National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 -- latest edi- tion*, or CSA Standards 022.1-94, Canadian Electri-

cal Code Part 1 and 022.2 No. 0-M91 - latest edi- tion** and all local codes and ordinances.

A U.L.- or C.S.A.-listed conduit connector must be provided at each end of the power supply conduit (at

the range hood and at the junction box).

Copies of the standards listed may be obtained from:

* National Fire Protection Association Batterymarch Park Quincy, Massachusetts 02269

** CSA International 8501 East Pleasant Valley Road Cleve- land, Ohio 44131-5575

Make up air: Local building codes may require the

use of Make-Up Air Systems when using Ducted Ventilation Systems greater than specified OFM of

air movement. The specified OFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specific

requirements in your area.

Qualified Installer, check if they perfectly fit with your cabinet/wall.

temperatures as part of the ductwork. The damper should be on the cold air side of the

thermal break. The break should be as close as possible to

where the ducting enters the heated portion of the house.

Make up air: Local building codes may require the

use of Make-Up Air Systems when using Ducted Ventilation Systems greater than specified CFM of air movement.

The specified CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specific

requirements in your area.

Typical installation

Min installationheight from the range top to the

bottom of the hood is 30" if a gas range is used or 24" to 30" if an electric range is used.

These hoods are not recommended to be used

over indoor grills.

The hood may be installed onto a wall and vented to the outdoors, or it can be installed for recirculating operation (recirculating accessories not supplied with the hood). This hood can be installed over any electric and gas cooktop/range. It can not be installed over any profe88ional cooktop / range.

Ins! lling preparation

Advance planning

• Determine the exact location of the vent hood. Plan the route for venting exhaust to the

outdoors. Use the shortest and straightest duct route

possible.

Refer to "Ductwork installation guidelines"

paragraph for further informations.

Install a wall cap with damper or roof cap at the

exterior opening. Order the wall or roof cap and anytransition needed in advance. Use 8" round metal ductwork only.

Wall framing for adequate support

= This vent hood is heavy.

'Adequate structure and support must be

provided in alltypes of installations. The hood must be secure to vertical studs in the wall, or to a horizontal support.

The vent hood should be on site before final framing and wall finishing. This will help to

accurately Iocatethe duct work and electrical service.

Installation will be easier if the vent hood is

installed before the cook-top and countertop are installed.

Removing the packaging

Remove carton carefully, Wear gloves to protect against sharp edges.
