Installation Instructions
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This product requires a three-prong grounded
outlet. The installer must peribrm a ground continuity
check on the power outlet box beibre beginning the
installation m insure that tile outlet box is properly
grounded, if not properly grounded, or if the
outlet box does not meet electrical requirements
noted (under ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS),
a qualified electrician should be employed to
correct any deficiencies.
CAUTION: For personal
safety, remove house fuse
or open circuit breaker
before beginning installation
to avoid severe or fatal
shock injury.
CAUTION: For personal safety, the momaling surface
must be capable of supporting the cabinet load, ha
addition to the added weight of this 63-85 pound
product, plus additional oven loads of up to 50 pounds
or a total weight of 113-135 pounds.
CAUTION: For personal safety, this product cannot
be installed ha cabinet arrangements such as an island or
a peninsula. It must be mounted to BOTH a top cabinet
AND a wall.
NOTE: For easier installation and personal safety, it is
recommended that two people install this product.
IMPORTANT--PLEASE READ CARF_UIIY. FOR
PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
PROPERLY GROUNDED TO AVOID SEVERE OR
FATAL SHOCK.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with
a three-prong (grounding)
plug which mates with
a standard three-prong
(grounding) wall receptacle
to minimize the possibility
of electric shock hazard
from this appliance.
insureproper
groundexists
beforeuse
You should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked
by a qualified electricima to make sure the receptacle is
properly grounded.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is
encomatered, it is very important to have it replaced
with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle,
installed by a qualified electrician.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT,
DEFORM, OR REMOVE ANY OF THE PRONGS
FROM THE POWER CORD. DO NOT USE WITH
AN EXTENSION CORD.
ELECTRICAL
REQUIREMENTS
Product rating is 120 volts AC, 60 Hertz, 15 amps, and
1.70 kilowatts. This product must be connected to
a supply circuit of the proper voltage and fi'equency.
Wire size must conform to the requirements of the
National Electrical Code or the prevailing local code
for this kilowatt rating. The power supply cord and
plug should be brought to a separate 15 to 20 ampere
branch circuit single grounded outlet. The outlet box
should be located in the cabinet above the oven. The
outlet box and supply circuit should be installed by
a qualified electrician and conform to the National
Electrical Code or the prevailing local code.

NOTE: Read these next two pages only if you plan to vent your exhaust to the outside.
If you plan to recirculate the air back into the room, proceed to page 6.

Installation Instructions
NOTE: If you need to install ducts, note that the total
duct lengtb of 3¼" x 10" rectangular or 6" diameter
round duct should not exceed 140 equivalent feet.
Outside ventilation requires a HOOD EXHAUST DUCT.
Read tile following carefully.
NOTE: It is important tbat venting be installed using
the most direct route and with as few elbows as possible.
This ensures clear venting of exhaust and helps prevent
blockages. Also, make sure dampers swing freely and
nothing is blocking the ducts.
Exhaust connection:
The hood exhaust has been designed to mate witb
a standard 3¼" x 10" rectangular duct.
If a round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round
transition adaptor must be used. Do not use less than
a 6" diameter duct.
Maximum duct length:
For satisfhctory air movement, the total duct length of"
3¼" x 10" rectangular or 6" diameter round duct should
not exceed 140 equivalent feet.
Elbows, transitions, wall and roof caps, etc.,
present additional resistance to airflow and are equivalent
to a section of straight duct which is longer than their
actual physical size. When calculating the total duct
lengtb, add tbe equivalent lengtbs of all transitions and
adaptors plus tbe length of all straight duct sections.
The chart below shows you how to calculate total
equivalent ductwork length using the approximate feet
of equivalent lengtb of some typical ducts.
