CAUTION:
Due to the weight and size of these vent hoods and
to reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the
product, TWO PEOPLE ARE REQUIRED FOR PROPER
INSTALLATION.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not
use this range hood with any external solid-state speed
control device. Any such alteration from original factory
wiring could result in damage to the unit and/or create
an electrical safety hazard.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY METAL DUCTWORK.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,
ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE
THE FOLLOWING:
A. Use this unit only in the manner intended
by the manufacturer. If you have any questions,
contact the manufacturer.
B. Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch
the power off at the service panel and lock the
service disconnecting means to prevent the power
from being switched on accidentally. When the
service disconnecting means cannot be locked,
securely fasten a prominent warning device,
such as a tag, to the service panel.
CAUTION:FOR GENERAL VENTILATING
USE ONLY. DO NOT USE TO EXHAUST HAZARDOUS
MATERIALS, EXPLOSIVE MATERIALS OR VAPORS.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,
ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE
THE FOLLOWING:
• Installation work and electrical wiring must be done
by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable
codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.
• 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 walls or ceilings, do not
damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
• Ducted systems must always be vented
to the outdoors.
• Local codes vary. Installation of electrical connections
and grounding must comply with applicable codes.
In the absence of local codes, the vent should be
installed in accordance with National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA 70-1990 or latest edition.

CAUTION:To reduce risk of fire and to
properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside—do not
vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or
into attics, crawl spaces or garages.

Installation 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. For
satisfactory performance, duct run should not exceed 100 ft.
equivalent length for any duct configurations.
• Refer to “Duct Fittings” chart on page 5 to compute the
maximum permissible length for duct runs to the outdoors.
CAUTION:To reduce risk of fire and to properly
exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside—do not vent exhaust
air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl
spaces or garages.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,
USE ONLY METAL DUCTWORK.
• Install a wall cap with damper or roof cap at the exterior
opening. Order the wall or roof cap and any transition
needed in advance.
Wall Framing for Adequate Support
• This vent hood is heavy. Adequate structural support must
be provided in all types of installations. The hood must be
secured 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 locate the duct
work and electrical service.
• Installation will be easier if the vent hood is installed before
the cooktop and countertop are installed.
ACCESSORY DUCT COVER
This hood is shipped with a decorative duct cover for ceiling
heights of 7′11″ to 10′. The ZX83012 duct cover accessory
is available to reach ceiling heights between 10′1″ and 12′.
The accessory should be ordered with the hood and be
on site before installation begins.
POWER SUPPLY
IMPORTANT – (Please read carefully)
WARNING: FOR PERSONAL SAFETY,
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.
Remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before beginning
installation.
Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug with this
appliance. Follow National electrical codes or prevailing local
codes and ordinances.
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 back wall. Refer to Wiring Locations
on page 9.
• Connect the hood wiring to the house wiring in accordance
with local codes.
Grounding instructions
The grounding conductor must be connected to a grounded
metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding
terminal or lead on the hood.
WARNING: The improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service
representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is
properly grounded.
CAUTION:Automatically Operated Device –
To reduce the risk of injury disconnect from power supply
before servicing. This unit is equipped with an integral
disconnecting switch located inside the blower housing.

Installation Preparation
DUCT FITTINGS
This Hood Must Use an
8″ Round Duct. It Can
Transition to a
3-1/4″ x 12″ Duct.
Use this chart to compute
maximum permissible lengths for
duct runs to outdoors.
NOTE: Do not exceed maximum
permissible equivalent lengths!
Maximum duct length:
100 feet for range hoods.
Flexible ducting:
If flexible metal ducting is used,
all the equivalent feet values in
the table should be doubled.
The flexible metal duct should
be straight and smooth and
extended as much as possible.
DO NOT use flexible plastic
ducting.
NOTE: Any home ventilation
system, such as a ventilation hood,
may interrupt the proper flow of
combustion air and exhaust
required by fireplaces, gas
furnaces, gas water heaters and
other naturally vented systems.
To minimize the chance of
interruption of such naturally
vented systems, follow the
heating equipment manufacturer’s
guidelines and safety standards
such as those published by NFPA
and ASHRAE.
