INSTALL  THE  RANGEHOOD

1.

Remove the rangehood from the carton and place on a

flat surface.  Cover the surface to prevent accidental damage. 

Remove all parts including the backdraft damper, plastic grille

and literature package before discarding the carton.  Remove

the grease filters and set aside.

The rangehood mounts to the cabinet by two spring loaded

brackets, one on each side of the rangehood 

(FIGURE 6)

.  Lift

the rangehood into the cutout opening in the cabinet.  Be careful 

not to damage the cabinet, rangehood or other appliances.

CUT-OUT

PREPARE  THE  CABINET

1.

Disconnect and move freestanding range from cabinet

opening to provide easier access to upper cabinet and rear wall.  

Put a thick, protective covering over cooktops, set-in ranges or

countertops to protect from damage or dirt.

2.

Determine and clearly mark with a pencil the center line

of the cabinet on the wall and on the underside of the cabinet

where the rangehood will be installed.

3.

If the cabinet bottom is recessed, wood blocks need to

be installed to insure proper alignment with the cabinet bottom.

Wood blocks should be flush or recessed 1/16" to 1/8" within

the cabinet bottom as indicated in 

FIGURE  4

.

WHERE THE RANGEHOOD WILL BE INSTALLED.

4.

Determine the proper cutouts for the ductwork.  Make all

necessary cuts in the walls or cabinets for the ductwork.  Install

the ductwork before mounting the rangehood.

5.

Determine and make the proper cutout for the Power Supply

Cable.  Use a 1  1/4" Drill Bit to make this hole.  Run the Power

Supply Cable through the wall or cabinet.  DO NOT turn on the

power until installation is complete.  Use caulking to seal around 

the wire opening.

FIGURE 6

3.

The spring loaded brackets are factory set to accomo-

date a thickness between 1 3/16" and 2 1/4".  If your cabinet

bottom is less than 1 3/16" thick, the spring loaded brackets

can be removed and repositioned down from the top setting

to the bottom setting by removing the four phillips screws.

4.

Tighten the rangehood to the cabinet by rotating the

screws with a phillips screw driver.

5.

A grey vinyl strip  

(FIGURE 7)

 is included to cover the

underside of any remaining exposed cabinet.  Attach the grey 

vinyl strip to the bottom of the back of the rangehood with the 

three screws provided.  If necessary, the strip can be cut to

fit the cabinet depth.

7.

Remove the cover from the field wiring compartment with

a phillips screwdriver.  Feed the Power Supply Cable through

the electrical knockout.  Connect the Power Supply Cable to the 

rangehood cable.  Attach the White lead of the power supply

to the White lead of the rangehood with a twist-on type wire

connector.  Attach the Black lead of the power supply to the

Black lead of the rangehood with a twist-on type wire connector.  

Attach the Power Supply Cable grounding lead to the green

screw provided.  Using the 4 holes provided, screw the field

wiring compartment to the wall or cabinet as dictated by your

Power Supply Cable location (screws not provided).  Replace

the cover.

8.

Replace the grease filters.  Connect the ductwork to the

damper and seal all connections.

9.

Turn the power supply on.  Turn on the blower and light.  

If the rangehood does not operate, check that the circuit breaker

is not tripped or the house fuse blown.  If the unit still does

not operate, disconnect the power supply and check that the

wiring connections have been made properly.
