NOTE:
If the bottom of the cupboard is recessed, attach wood strips (not included), as shown below, in order to properly
install the range hood (

recess.
Remove both filters from the hood. Disassemble the adaptor/damper (

NOTE:
Depending on the hood model, the adapter/damper can be located on top of the hood (for double blower hoods) or
inside the hood (for single blower hoods). In this last case, the bottom panel (
B
) must be removed to access the
adapter/damper. Refer to figures below.
