INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
A. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualied person(s) in
accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including re-rated construction.
B. Sucient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through
the ue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the
heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as those
published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American
Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the
local code authorities.
C. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and
other hidden utilities.
D. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
E. This unit must be grounded.

- 5 -
WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY METAL DUCTWORK.
WARNING - UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES DOMESTIC APPLIANCES MAY BE
DANGEROUS.
A. Do not check lters with hood working.
B. Do not touch the lamps after a prolonged use of the appliance.
C. No food must be cooked ambè underneath the hood.

Installation Preparation
DUCT FITTINGS:
This Hood Must Use an
6" Round Duct. It Can
Transition to 3-1/4" x
10"or3-1/4"x12"Duct.
Use this chart to compute
maximum permissible
lengths for duct runs to
outdoors.
NOTE: Do not exceed
maximum permissible
equivalent lengths!
Maximum duct length:
100 feet for range hoods.
Flexible ducting:
If flexible metal ducting
is used, all the equivalent
feet values in the table
should be doubled. The
flexible metal duct should
be straight and smooth
and extended as much as
possible.
DO NOT use flexible plastic
ducting.
NOTE: Any home ventilation
system, such as a ventilation
hood, may interrupt the
proper flow of combustion
air and exhaust required
by fireplaces, gas furnaces,
gas water heaters and
other naturally vented
systems. To minimize the
chance of interruption
of such naturally vented
systems, follow the heating
equipment manufacturer’s
guidelines and safety
standards such as those
published by NFPA.

WARNING FIRE HAZARD
NEVER exhaust air or terminate duct work into spaces between walls, crawl spaces,
ceiling, attics or garages.
All exhaust must be ducted to the outside, unless using the recirculating option.
Use single wall exible or rigid metal ductwork only.
Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints w/ certied silver
tape or duct tape.
INSTALL THE DUCTWORK:
NOTE: To reduce the risk of re, use only metal ductwork.
1. Decide where the ductwork will run between the hood and the outside.
2. A straight, short duct run will allow the hood to perform most eciently.
3. Long duct runs, elbows, and transitions will reduce the performance of the
hood. Use as few of them as possible.
4. Install a roof or wall cap. Connect 6" round metal ductwork to cap and work
back towards hood location. Use duct tape to seal the joints between ductwork
sections.

POWER SUPPLY:
IMPORTANT – (Please read carefully)
WARNING:
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.
Shut down power at the service panel before beginning installation. Do not use an
extension cord or adapter plug with this appliance. Follow National electrical codes or
prevailing local codes and ordinances.
Electrical supply:
These vent hoods must be supplied with 120V, 60Hz, and connected to an individual,
properly grounded branch circuit, and protected by a 15 or 20 amp circuit breaker or
time delay fuse.
• Wiring must be 2 wire with ground.
• If the electrical supply does not meet the above requirements, call a licensed
electrician before proceeding.
• Route house wiring as close to the installation location as possible, in the ceiling or
back wall. Refer to Wiring Locations on page 18.
• Connect the hood wiring to the house wiring in accordance with local codes.
GroundingInstructions:The ground conductor must be connected to a xed, grounded
wiring system, or to a ground terminal or conductor on the hood.
WARNING: The improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor
can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualied electrician or service
representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded.

- 18 -
2. CONNECT ELECTRICAL:
• Power Supply Connection:
For connection to the power supply refer to Fig.7:
BLACK = L line
WHITE = N neutral
GREEN/YELLOW = G ground
- A double-pole switch properly rated must be
installed to provide the range hood power supply
disconnection.
- Connect the electrical conduit to the Field Wiring
Compartment using listed conduit ttings.
- Carry out the power supply connection in
accordance with the national electric code, ANSI/
NFPA 70-1999.
5. Insert the wires into the box, then close the box
cover, securing it using the s c r e w s t h a t w e r e
previously removed.
The appliance should be installed at a minimum
height of 26" up to a maximum height of 32" for
optimal performance. If a connection ductwork
composed of two parts is used, the upper part
must be placed outside the lower part. Do not
connect the range hood exhaust duct air to the
same duct air used to exhaust hot air or fumes from
other appliances other than electrical.
• In the FILTERING version it is necessary to
apply a metal air exhaust tube M (Fig.8), with a
minimum length of 15", connected to the ange of
the collector. It must be positioned vertically and
fastened to a specic opening made on the top
