Important Safety Notice
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLING AND OPERATING
THIS APPLIANCE
• The installation in this manual is intended for qualied
installers, service technicians or persons with similar qualied
background. Installation and electrical wiring must be
done by qualied professionals and in accordance with
all applicable codes and standards, including re-rated
construction.
• DO NOT attempt to install this appliance yourself. Injury could
result from installing the unit due to lack of appropriate
electrical and technical background.
• Range hood may have very sharp edges; please wear
protective gloves if it is necessary to remove any parts for
installing, cleaning or servicing.
• Activating any switch ON before completing installation may
cause ignition or an explosion.
• Due to the size and weight of this range hood, two people
installation is recommended.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO
PERSONS:
• For general ventilating use only. DO NOT use to exhaust
hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
• The combustion air ow needed for safe operation of fuel-
burning equipment may be affected by this unit’s operation.
Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and
safety standards such as those published by the National

5
Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society
of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers
(ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
• Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power OFF at service
panel and lock service panel to prevent power from being
switched ON accidentally.
• Clean grease laden surfaces frequently.To reduce the risk of
re and to disperse air properly, make sure to vent air outside.
DO NOT vent exhaust into spaces between walls, crawl
spaces, ceiling, attics or garages.
• Ducted fans MUST always be vented to the outdoors.
• Use only metal ductwork and this unit MUST be grounded.
• Sufcient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting
of gases through the duct to prevent back drafting.
• When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, be careful not to
damage electrical wiring or other hid- den utilities.
• All electrical wiring must be properly installed, insulated and
grounded.
• Old duct work should be cleaned or replaced if necessary to
avoid the possibility of a grease re.
• Check all joints on duct work to insure proper connection
and all joints should be properly taped.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A STOVE TOP GREASE FIRE:
• Keep all fan, bafe, spaces, lter, grease tunnel, oil container
and grease-laden surfaces clean. Grease should not be
allowed to accumulate on fan, bafe, spaces, lter, grease
tunnel and oil container.
• Always turn range hood ON when cooking at high heat or
when cooking aming foods.
• Use high settings on cooking range only when necessary.
• Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boil
overs cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.
• Clean ventilating fan frequently.
• Always use appropriate cookware and utensils size.
• Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface
element.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A
STOVE TOP GREASE FIRE:
• SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-tting lid, cookie sheet, or
metal tray, then turn OFF the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT
BURNS. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN—you may be burned.
KEEP FLAMMABLE OR COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL AWAY FROM
FLAMES. If the ames DO NOT go out immediately, EVACUATE
AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT or dial your local emergency
service immediately.
• DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels — a
violent steam explosion will result.

Installation
A. Prepare Ductwork & Single Outlet
Make sure you have a 15amp, 120V, 60Hz, single outlet on the left
or right of the duct pipe (usually is on ¼ of cabinet width). See
Figure 1
Make sure duct pipe is ready to hook up to the range hood
before beginning installation (8” diameter duct, and roof or wall
cap, depending on where you will be venting your hood)
NOTE: Use threaded drywall anchors only when mounting the
hood on sheet rock. Mounting the hood on wall studs or lumbers
is highly recommended.
B. Install the Hood Body Under a
Cabinet
Put a thick, protective covering over counter top, cook top or
range to protect from damage or dirt.
TIP (optional): you can create a solid at form by having 2 solids
2-3” block at both side of stove and a 3/4”-1” plywood at form
above. Figure 2

17
For installing under the cabinet with recessed bottom, attach
4-inch wide wood ller strips (not provided) on each side. Refer to
below. Figure 3
Create access opening for electrical wires and hood exhaust
under the cabinet. Figure 4

18
Lift the hood up and have it place below the cabinet. Make sure
center the hood beneath the cabinet and ush with the front of
the cabinet. Figure 5
TIP (optional): since the hood is heavy, use cabinet jack is highly
recommended it. See Figure 5-5

19
From inside of the hood, place screws into the exact center of
each knockout holes (4) and secure to cabinet bot tom. Finish
tightening all screws until secure. Be careful when using electrical
screwdriver, damage to the range hood may occur. Figure 6
Secure the hood by using 1.5” – 2.0” wood screws (the screws are
not provided) screw through the back of hood to the studs (use
stub nder to nd the stud. Figure 7
CAUTION: Make certain the range hood is secure before

1. Oil Tunner. Drop oil tunnel into recess support near rear of
hood. Refer to below gure A
2. Bafe Filter. Install bafe lters; refer to Figure B on the left for the
following three steps:
1 . Angle bafe lter toward back of hood.
2 . Lift a bafe lter up above horizontal level.
3 . Slide forward into slot behind the front of hood.
To remove the bafe, please reverse the process.
