Charcoal Filter Installation Preparation
White
Green
Black
NOTE: The charcoal lters are preinstalled if you purchased the range hood with re-circulating kit from us.
1. Remove stainless steel bafe lters on hood.
2. Remove the safety lter under the stainless steel bafe lters by unscrewing two screws, then position the
charcoal lter and align the screw holes, reinstall and fasten two screws.
3. Reinstall the stainless steel bafe lters back to the hood.

average of 1 to 2 hours of daily cooking time). Available at your local reseller.
WARNING
Excessive Weight
Require three or more person to move and
install this range hood. Spinal or other bodi-
ly injuries could occur if it is not followed.
Preparations:
NOTE: To avoid damage to your hood, prevent debris from
entering the vent opening.
1. Determine and mark the center line on the ceiling where the
range hood will be installed. Make sure there is proper clear-
ance within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
2. Due to the weight and size of this unit, please make sure that
the support system or framework being used is stable and
secure in the ceiling.
3. Put a thick, protective covering over counter top, cook top or
range to protect from damage or dirt. Remove any hazardous
objects around the area when installing.
4. Mark the locations of the support mounting bracket holes,
vent cutout (if used) and power supply cable cutout on the
ceiling. Use drill and saber saw or keyhole saw to cut open-
ings for power supply cable and vent (see Venting Methods
and Electrical requirements, Pages 7-8).
5. If venting to the outside install vent system (see Venting
Methods, Page 7). Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof
openings.
6. Disconnect main electrical supply, prepare and run electrical
wiring through ceiling. Leave approximately 12” of electri-
cal cord hanging from the ceiling. Do not restore power until
wiring is completed.
7. Disconnect power cord, remove the stainless steel bafe l-
ter (see Figure 9, Page 11) and grease tunnel.
8. Set aside the stainless steel bafe lters and grease tunnel
until the range hood is properly installed.
9. If the range hood comes with a glass canopy and has not
already been mounted to the hood, loosen the four canopy
screws and washers from the hood top, carefully place the
canopy on the hood top, and loosely tighten the four canopy
screws along with washers. DO NOT put excessive pressure
against the glass.
