8. Prepare Range Hood Vents and
Mounting Tabs
■ Install Strain Relief
Install a UL Listed/CSA Approved ¹⁄₂" (13 mm) strain relief (A).
■ Mounting Tabs
Start a #8-18 x ⁵⁄₈" (4.2 x 16 mm) truss-head screw into the
mounting tab (E) on each side of the range hood as shown in
the inset. Insert the screws approximately 2 turns into the
mounting tab holes.
■ Non-vent (Recirculating) Installations
Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver remove the 2 screws and
remove the top, front rectangular vent cover (D). Go to Step
12.
■ 3 ¹⁄₄" x 10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm) Rectangular Vent Installations
For top vent installations, remove the top, rectangular vent
knockout (C).
OR
For wall vent installations, remove the rear rectangular vent
knockout (B).
9. Attach Vent Damper or Transition
3
¹⁄₄" x 10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm) Rectangular Vent Damper
Using (2) short Phillips head screws, install the 3 ¹⁄₄" x 10" (8.3 x
25.4 cm) rectangular damper over the top or rear vent knockout
removed in Step 8.
NOTE: If the wall cap used has a damper and it interferes with
the rectangular damper, remove the rectangular damper flap.
10. Mount Range Hood
■ Lift the range hood into place, positioning the rear slots over
the mounting brackets.
■ Using a Phillips screwdriver, push on the screws that are
started into the top mounting tabs and bend the tabs against
the cabinet side walls. Attach the screws to the cabinet side
walls.
IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten the screws.
■ For direct wire installations, run the home power supply cable
according to the National Electric Code or CSA standards
and local codes and ordinances. There must be enough
wiring from the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box to
make the connection in the range hood electrical terminal
box.
■ Tighten the strain relief screws.
NOTE: Do not reconnect power until the installation is
complete.
OPTIONAL: If you prefer, bend the rear tabs against the rear
of the range hood and attach to the wall using #8-18 x
⁵⁄₈"
(4.2 x 16 mm) truss-head screws.
11. Connect Vent System
■ Connect the ventwork to the range hood.
■ Seal joints with duct tape to make secure and airtight.
■ Check that the back draft dampers work properly.
