Installation Instructions
We recommend that a qualified technician install the range hood. It is
the installer’s responsibility to ensure the range hood complies with the
installation clearances specified for the product.
•
It is recommended that the vent system be installed before the hood is
installed.
•
If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in ranges from
cabinet openings to provide easier access to the rear wall.
•
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the
ceiling or wall for the exhaust vent.
•
Confirm that all installation parts have been removed from the shipping
carton.
