Preparation before Installation
NOTE: TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR HOOD,
PREVENT DEBRIS FROM
ENTERING THE VENT OPENING.
•
Decide the location of the venting pipe
from the hood to the outside. Refer to
Figure 1.
•
A straight, short venting run will allow
the hood to perform more efficiently.
•
Try to avoid as many transitions,
elbows, and long run as possible. This
may reduce the performance of the
hood.
•
Temporarily wire the hood to test for
proper operation before installing.
•
Important: Peel protective film off
the hood (if any).
•
For installing under the cabinet with
recessed bottom, attach 4-inch wide
wood filler strips (not included) on each
side. Refer to Figure 2.
•
Measure and create access opening for
electrical wires and 6” round plastic
exhaust under the cabinet.
