Location requirements
IMPORTANT
: Observe that all local and National codes and regulations are met.
Entrust the installation of the hood to a qualified installer. It is the installer's responsibility to respect the separation clearances
specified on the nameplate of the unit. The unit's rating plate is located behind the filter on the left rear wall of the hood.
Install the range hood away from any area that is exposed to drafts, such as windows, doors and heating vents.
Follow the dimensions indicated for openings to be cut in cabinets. These dimensions provide minimum clearance
separation. Before making cut-outs, refer to the instructions of the cooktop or range, above which you will place the hood.
One must have a grounded electrical outlet. See '’Electrical Specifications'' for more information.
The hood is configured for installation with a discharge to the outside through the roof or wall.
Make sure to seal each opening cut in the ceiling or wall for the installation of the range hood.
