UNDER CABINET INSTALLATION
Preparation before Installation
NOTE: TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR HOOD,
PREVENT DEBRIS FROM ENTERING
THE VENT OPENING.
-
Decide the location of the vening pipe from the
hood to the outside. (Figure 1)
-
A straight, short vent run will allow the hood to
perform more efficiently.
-
Try to avoid as many transitions, elbows, and
long run as possible. This may reduce the
performance of the hood.
-
Temporarily wire the hood to test for proper
operation before installing. If the hood does not
operate, check the circuit breaker or house fuse.
If the hood is still not working, disconnect power
supply and check the continuity of all wire
connections.
-
Peel protective film off the hood (if any).
-
Use duct tape to seal joints between pipe
sections.
-
For installing under the cabinet with recessed
bottom, attach 4-inch wide wood filter strips (not
included) on each side (Figure 2)
-
Using reference on Page 19-20 to measure and
create access opening for electrical wires and
exhaust under the cabinet.
CAUTION: USE HAND TOOLS ONLY. DO
NOT OVER TIGHTEN SCREWS. IT MAY CAUSE
DAMAGE TO THE HOOD.
