kLW/'_I_I_i I I_i_: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

A. Installation work and electrical wiring

must be done by qualified person(s) in

accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.

B. Sufficient air is needed for proper

combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning

equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer's guidelines and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire

Protection Association (NFPA), the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE)

and the local code authorities.

When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling,

do not damage electrical wiring and other

hidden utilities.

Ducted fans must always be vented to the

outdoors.

Turn off breaker to adjacent rooms while working.

INSTALLATION CLEARANCES

These vent hoods are designed to be installed onto a wall with no above cabinets.

, Install these hoods between the 24" required

minimum and 36" recommended maximum above the cooking surface.

24" Required IVlin. 36" Recommended Max.

The vent hood must be installed between the 24" required minimum and 36" recommended

maximum above the cooking surface. The hood installation height above the cooking surface depends upon ceiling height and duct cover limitations. The telescopic duct cover conceals the ductwork running from the top of the hood to the ceiling. For supplied duct cover ceiling

heights, see table on page 5.

NOTE: Installation height should be measured from the cooking surface to the lowest part

of the hood. This hood must be installed onto a wall. It can be vented to the outdoors, or it can be installed for recirculating operation. For

recirculation operation, see Recirculation Install

Planning.

Installation Preparation

ADVANCE PLANNING

Duct Install Planning , This hood is designed to be vented vertically

through the ceiling. Use a 6" round duct. Use locally supplied elbows to vent horizontally through the rear wall.

, Use metal ductwork only. , Determine the exact location of the vent hood.

, Plan the route for venting exhaust to the

outdoors. To maximize the ventilation performance of the vent system:

1. Minimize the duct run length and number of transitions and elbows.

2. Maintain a constant duct size.

3.Seal all joints with duct tape to prevent any leaks.

4. Do not use any type of flexible ducting.

, Install a wall cap or roof cap with damper

at the exterior opening. Purchase the wall or roof cap and any transition and length of duct

needed in advance.

, When applicable, install any makeup

(replacement) air system in accordance with local building code requirements. Visit GEAppliances.com for available makeup air

solutions.

Recirculation Install Planning A recirculation duct (included) and one charcoal filter (not included) are necessary for recirculation

installation.

Power Supply Planning The location of the power supply connection is

called out in the Prepare the Wall section on

page 6.

POWER SUPPLY

IMPORTANT- {Please read carefully}

AWARNING:

FOR PERSONAL SAFETY,THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLYGROUNDED.

Remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before beginning installation.

Electrical supply These vent hoods must be supplied with 120V,

60Hz, and connected to an individual, properly grounded branch circuit, and protected by a 15 or 20 amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse.

, Wiring must be 2 wire with ground.

, If the electrical supply does not meet the above

requirements, call a licensed electrician before proceeding.

, Route house wiring as close to the installation

location as possible in the ceiling or wall.

, Connect the wiring to the house wiring in

accordance with local codes.

Grounding instructions The grounding conductor must be connected to

a ground metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the hood.

AWARNING: The improper connection

of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a riskof electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded.
