PLAN THE DUCTWORK
The Velvet slideout rangehood is designed to offer wide exibility of installations.
The rangehood can be ducted through a 6" round vent. The unit can also be
installed in a recirculating conguration. The unit comes standard in the top
venting position. FIGURE 3 shows recirculating installation.
The Velvet requires 6" round ductwork. To ensure that the blower performs to
its highest possible capacity, ductwork should be as short and straight as pos-
silbe.
RECIRCULATING INSTALLATIONS
For recirculating installations (FIGURE 3), Charcoal Filters are necessary. Open the comfort panel by turning the knobs to the
right, slide open the glass visor, and remove the grease lters and set aside. Attach one charcoal lter to each end of the blower.
Each charcoal lter attaches to the of the side of the blower. Rotate the lter clockwise to install and counterclockwise to remove
(FIGURE 3A). Replace the grease lters and reattach the comfort panel. Some ductwork must be installed to exhaust the
rangehood back into the kitchen, either at the top of the cabinet or at the face of the soft. Using a plastic vent grate to cover
the duct opening.
This duct work must not terminate into a dead air space.

FIGURE 3
The ductrun should not exceed 35 feet if ducted
with the required minimum of 6" round duct. Cal-
culate the length of the ductwork by adding the
equivalent feet in FIGURE A for each piece of duct
in the system An example is given in FIGURE B.
For best results, use no more than three 90°
elbows. Make sure that there is a minimum of
24" of straight duct between elbows if more
than one is used. Do not install two elbows
together. If you must elbow right away, do it
as far away from the hood's exhaust opening
as possible.

and then ip it over 180 degrees. Be sure that
the power supply cable is properly positioned.
Replace all screws, making sure that they are
rmly fastened.
