INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare Location
1. If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in
range from cabinet opening to provide easier access to upper
cabinet or rear wall. Slide cardboard or hardboard under
range before moving range across floor to avoid damaging
floor covering. Otherwise, put a thick covering over
countertop, cooktop or range to avoid damage or dirt.
2. Determine which venting method (roof, wall or non-venting)
you need to use. This range hood is shipped for non-vented
installation.
3. Drill four ¹⁄₈" (3.0 mm) pilot holes for hood mounting screws. If
cabinet has recessed bottom, add wood shim strips on each
side.
4. From the following diagrams, select the diagram for your
installation.
Vented installations: Cut the vent system and electrical wiring
access holes as required.
■ If wiring through the top, use location shown in vertical
vent system.
■ If wiring through the back, use location shown in
horizontal vent system.
