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 (D) on each side of the range hood as shown in
the inset. Insert the screws approximately 2 turns into the
mounting tab holes.

7" (17.8 cm) Round Vent Installations

Remove both top knockouts (B and C).

7" (17.8 cm) Round Vent Mounting Plate

Using (2) short Phillips head screws, install the 7" (17.8 cm)
round vent mounting plate over the vent knockouts removed
in Step 8. Position the wide flange (C) to the front.

NOTE: An optional 7" (17.8 cm) round damper (A), Part
Number W10355451 is available as an accessory. For
information on ordering, see the “Assistance or Service”
section.

If installing the optional round damper, position it over the

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 vent clamps or duct tape to make secure and
airtight.
