INSTALL THE RANGEHOOD
1. Remove the rangehood from the carton and place on a
flat surface. Cover the surface to prevent accidental damage.
Remove all parts including the backdraft damper, 2 screws,
and literature package before discarding the carton.
2. Remove the grease filters from the rangehood and set
aside. The grease filters are removed by pressing the handle
of the filter as indicated in FIGURE 7. When replacing, make
sure that the filters are properly positioned with the handles
in front and visible.
3. Remove the cover from the field wiring compartment.
Remove the wiring electrical knockout using a flat-blade
screwdriver. Feed the Power Supply Cable through the
electrical knockout.
4. Attach the damper to the exhaust opening of the range-
hood. Two small phillips screws are provided to attach the
damper.
5. The rangehood mounts to the cabinet by two spring
loaded brackets, one on each side of the rangehood. Lift the
rangehood into the cutout opening in the cabinet. Be careful
not to damage the cabinet, rangehood or other appliances.
PREPARE THE WALL
1. Disconnect and move freestanding range from cabinet
opening to provide easier access to upper cabinet and rear
wall. Put a thick, protective covering over cooktop, set-in
range or countertop to protect from damage or dirt.
2. Determine and clearly mark with a pencil the center line
on the cabinet where the rangehood will be installed.
3. Determine and make all necessary cuts in the wall for
the ductwork. Install the ductwork before the rangehood.
4. Determine the proper location for the Power Supply
Cable. Use a 1 & 1/4" Drill Bit to make this hole. Install the
cable. Use caulking to seal around the hole. DO NOT turn
on the power until installation is complete.
RECIRCULATING INSTALLATIONS
For recirculating installations, filter kit 6093037 is neces-
sary. The charcoal filter must be inserted behind the
grease filters. Recirculating installations also require some
duct work to divert the air out of the cabinet. The duct work
must not terminate inside the cabinet.
CALCULATE THE DUCTRUN LENGTH
The length of the ductrun should not exceed the 26 equivalent feet.
The equivalent length is calculated by adding the actual straight length
of duct to the equivalent feet of elbows and wall caps. Calculate the
length of the ductwork by adding the equivalent feet listed in FIGURE
5 for each piece of duct in the complete system. FIGURE 6 gives
an example of how to calculate the equivalent length.
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.

6. Tighten the rangehood to the cabinet by rotating
the screws indicated in FIGURE 8 with a flat blade screw
driver.
7. Connect the Power Supply Cable to the rangehood.
Attach the White lead of the power supply to the White lead
of the rangehood with a twist-on type wire connector. Attach
the Black lead of the power supply to the Black lead of the
rangehood with a twist-on type wire connector. Connect the
Green ( Green and Yellow ) ground wire under the Green
grounding screw.
8. Replace the field wiring compartment cover and grease
filters.
9. Connect the ductwork to the damper and seal all con-
nections with duct tape.
10. Turn the power supply on. Turn on the blower and light.
If the rangehood does not operate, check that the circuit breaker
is not tripped or the house fuse blown. If the unit still does
not operate, disconnect the power supply and check that the
wiring connections have been made properly.
