Prepare the Location
• Disconnect power.
• Determine which venting method to use: roof or wall
exhaust.
• Select a flat surface for assembling the hood insert.
Place covering over that surface.
• 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.
• Hood insert should be installed a minimum 24” (61 cm)
above an electric cooktop surface and 30” (76.2 cm)
above a gas cook top surface. The maximum
recommended height over both cook tops is 36” (91.44
cm).
• Check that all installation parts have been removed
from the shipping carton.
• Using 2 or more people, lift hood insert onto covered
surface.
• Remove the filters. See the “Cleaning” section.
Dimensions and Clearances
This range hood has the flexibility to be installed in two diffe-
rent ways, depending on the width measurement or working
area between the left and right cabinetry. Before beginning, it
is important to determine the dimension of this working area
and to consider the measurements detailed in the next table.

Stainless Steel Hood Spacer Installation
• You can elongate 1.5” (3.8 cm) of your range hood width
(¾” [1.9 cm] per side), installing the stainless steel spacers
included with your range hood.
• Unpack the spacer and take off the protective.
• Put each one on the right and the left side
• Fasten hood spacer using four 5 x 45 mm screws to the
hood cabinet and tighten securely.
Hood spacer
• If cabinetry designs reduces the width opening (i.e. –
28.5”, 34.5”, 40.5” or 46.5”) to install the hood, the spacers
are not used.
• If you have a Full width opening (i.e. – 30”, 36”, 42” or 48”)
to install the hood, you should use the spacers.
