This hood is for residential installation only and is not
designed for installation over a commercial product. Make
sure power is off at the main circuit breaker or fuse box
before making connections. To avoid risk of fire, electric
shock, or injury to persons, turn off the electricity to the
hood from the power supply before servicing or cleaning.
Viking hoods are equipped with variable speed control
blowers. These units will not function with a single speed
ventilator. All Viking Range ventilator kits are designed
specifically for use with Viking Range hoods. Use of any
non-Viking Range ventilator kit will void the hood warranty.

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury
to persons, observe the following:
• Use this unit only in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have any questions, contact
the manufacturer.
• Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off
at service panel and lock service panel to prevent

W A R N I N G
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL
SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE
THE FOLLOWING:
1. Installation work and electrical wiring must be
done by qualified person(s) in accordance with
all applicable codes and standards, including
fire-rated construction.
2. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion
and exhausting of gases through the flute
(chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent
back drafting. Follow the heating equipment
manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards
such as those published by the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA), and the
American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and
Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the
local code authorities.
3. When cutting of drilling into wall or ceiling, do
not damage electrical wiring and other hidden
utilities.
4. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
5. WARNING!: To reduce risk of fire, use only
metal ductwork
6. 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.
7. CAUTION!: To Reduce the Risk of Fire and
Electric Shock, Install this rangehood only with
remote blower models manufactured by Viking,
model numbers – DEV900/DEV1200,
VEV900/VEV1200, OR DEV1500, VEV1500 or
integral blowers manufactured by Viking, model
numbers – DIV300, DIV440, DIV600, DIV800,
DIV1200, VIV300, VIV600, or VIV1200. NOTE –
Please refer inside for specific canopy/blower
combinations.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons in the
event of a rangetop grease fire, observe the
following. (Based on “Kitchen Firesafety Tips,”
published by NFPA.)
1. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close fitted lid, cookie
sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE
CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do
not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL
THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
2. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN. You may be
burned.
3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or
towels a violent steam explosion will result.
4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if
• You know it is a Class ABC extinguisher, and you
already know how to operate it.
• The fire is small and contained in the area where
it started.
• The fire department is being called.
• You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
For general ventilating use only. Do not use to
exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and
vapors.

The bottom of the hood should be 30” (76.2 cm) to 36” (91.4 cm) above the grill surface. The hood
should be installed 4-1/2” (11.4 cm) plus the distance between the back trim and surface from the back
wall. (Note: There is a 3” minimum clearance from the back trim to non-combustible surfaces, and a 24”
minimum to combustible surfaces.) This will require building the hood out from the wall. Any combustible
material used for this purpose must be covered with locally-supplied stainless steel. Viking also
recommends using a backsplash.

Proper installation of ducting is extremely
important to ensure maximum performance
from any ventilation product.
All CFMs are based on tests at 0.1 static
•
pressure: without applying static pressure, CFM
would be greatly overstated.
• Straight runs and gradual turns are best; for
example, each 90º elbow is equivalent to 5-10
feet (1.52-3.05 cm) of straight run.
• Never use flexible duct; it creates back pressure/air
turbulence and greatly reduces performance.
• Proper performance is dependent on proper
ducting; make sure that a qualified and trained
installer is used.
• Check with a qualified and trained installer or
local codes for makeup air requirement, if any.
• Max. amp rating for hoods includes
recommended ventilator kit rating; all products
must be hard wired direct with 2-wire with ground.
Plan where the duct work will be located. Install
proper-sized duct work, and roof or wall cap for the
type of blower you are using. Recommended hood
locations for the most common installations are
shown. Adjust your measurements for various heights
of ceilings, soffits, cabinets, or ranges/rangetops.
Attach transition to damper. Seal with aluminum tape.

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury
to persons, observe the following:
• Use this unit only in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have any questions, contact

NOTE: Because of the weight of the hood make sure
that the mounting screws are driven into the framing
and not just the drywall. It may be necessary to drill
additional holes in the canopy for proper alignment.
Flip hood over and remove electrical box cover.
Electrical Supply
Run 120 VAC electrical wiring from service panel
to installation location. See Specifications pages
for the maximum amp requirements.
