iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS
WARNING: 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 questions, contact the
manufacturer.
[] Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch power off at
service panel and lock the service disconnecting means to
prevent 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.
[] 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 backdrafting. Follow the
heating equipment manufacturer's guideline 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.

dimensions provide minimum clearance. Consult the cooktop/
range manufacturer installation instructions before making any
cutouts.
Grounded electrical outlet is required. See "Electrical
Requirements" section.
The canopy hood is factory set for venting through the roof or
wall. For non-vented (recirculating) Installation see "Non-vented
(recirculating) Installations" in "Prepare Location" section.
Charcoal Filter Kit Part Number 4393848 is available from your
dealer or an authorized parts distributor.

• Vent system must terminate to the outdoors, except for non-
vented (recirculating)installations.
• Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed
area.
• Do not use 4" (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall cap.
• Use metal vent only. Rigid metal vent is recommended.
Plastic or metal foil vent is not recommended.
For the most efficient and quiet operation:
• Use a straight run or as few elbows as possible.
• Use no more than three 90° elbows.
• Make sure there is a minimum of 24" (61 cm) of straight vent
between the elbows if more than 1 elbow is used.
• Do not install 2 elbows together.
• Use clamps to seal all joints in the vent system.
• The vent system must have a damper. If the roof or wall cap
has a damper, do not use the damper supplied with the range
hood.
• Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the
cap.
• The size of the vent should be uniform.
Cold weather installations
An additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize
backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic thermal break should
be installed to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as
part of the vent system. The damper should be on the cold air
side of the thermal break.
The break should be as close as possible to where the vent
system enters the heated portion of the house.
Makeup air
Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems
when using ventilation systems greater than specified CFM of air
movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale.
Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your
area.
Venting Methods
This canopy hood is factory set for venting through the roof or
wall.
A 6" (15.2 cm) round vent system is needed for installation (not
included). The hood exhaust opening is 6" (15.2 cm) round.
NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates
back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduce
performance.
Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent
through a wall, a 90° elbow is needed.
Rear discharge
A 90°elbow may be installed immediately above the hood.
For non-vented (recirculating) installations
If it is not possible to vent cooking fumes and vapors to the
outside, the hood can be used in the non-vented (recirculating)
version, fitting an activated carbon filter and the deflector. Fumes
and vapors are recycled through the top grille.

[] For all cord connected appliances:
The range hood must be grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric
current. The range hood is equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded.
WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can
result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified
electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are
not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether
the range hood is properly grounded.
Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is
too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install
an outlet near the range hood.
SAVE THESE iNSTRUCTiONS
Maximum equivalent vent length is 35 ft (10.7 m).
INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTIONS
• It is recommended that the vent system be installed before
hood is installed.
• Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
• Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum
before you select your hood.
