Remove the grease filters. See the “Range
Hood Care” section.

Remove mounting screws and lateral supports.
3. For vented installations:
■
Depending on your installation, remove either top

NOTE:
Do not remove rectangular knockouts
if installation of range hood is to be non-venting
(recirculating).
■
Make sure damper pivot is nearest to top/back
edge of range hood.
■
Remove tape from damper flap.
NOTE:
The exhaust adaptor/damper can be
installed up to 1" (2.5 cm) on either side of the
hood center to accommodate off-center ductwork.
■
If using rectangular vent, attach rectangular damper/vent
connectors to the range hood using sheet metal screws.
■
If using round vent, attach vent transition piece
(purchased separately) to range hood top using
sheet metal screws.
NOTE:
If the wall cap is directly behind the vent
connector, the dampers in the connector and
wall cap must not interfere with each other.
Remove the vent connector damper if they interfere.
