PLAN YOUR DUCTWORK
To ensure that the blower performs to its highest
possible capacity, ductwork should be as short
and straight as possilbe.
The ductrun should not exceed 55 equivalent
feet if ducted using the required minimum of
10" round duct. Calculate the length of the
ductwork by adding the equivalent feet in
FIG-
URE 2
for each piece of duct in the system An
example is given in
FIGURE 3
.
For best results, use no more than three 90°
elbows. Make sure that there is a minimum of
24" of straight duct between elbows if more
than one is used. Do not install two elbows
together.
If you must elbow right away, do it
as far away
from the hood's exhaust opening
as possible.

MAKE YOUR CUT-OUTS
1.
Disconnect and move freestanding range from cabinet opening to provide easier access
to upper cabinet or custom hood. Put a thick, protective covering over cooktop, set-in
range or countertop to protect from damage or dirt.
2.
Determine and clearly mark with a pencil the center line on the cabinet or custom hood
where the rangehood will be installed.
3.
Determine and make all necessary cuts in the wall and/or ceiling for the ductwork.
Install the ductwork before the rangehood.
4.
Determine the proper location for the Power Supply Cable. Use a 1
1/4"
Drill Bit to make
this hole. Install the cable. Use caulking to seal around the hole. DO NOT turn on the
power until installation is complete.
5.
Make the cut-out opening where the rangehood will be installed

ATTENTION
This rangehood is designed to be connected to a remote blower (pur
-
chased separately). CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire and electric
shock, install this rangehood only with remote blowers rated a maxi
-
mum 1.8 Amp, suitable for use with solid state fan speed controls. The
remote blower requires a separate wiring cable that should be installed
at the same time that the ductwork is installed. For best results, 10”
duct is recommended for the remote blower.
INSTALL THE RANGEHOOD
1.
Remove the rangehood , as seen in
(FIGURE 5)
from the carton
and place on a flat surface. Cover the surface to prevent accidental
damage. Remove all parts including the literature package before
discarding the carton.
