■ If the house has aluminum wiring follow the procedure below:
1. Connect a section of solid copper wire to the pigtail
leads.
2. Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of
copper wire using special connectors and/or tools
designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.
Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended
procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with
local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.
■ Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of
the appliance as specified on the model/serial rating plate.
The model/serial plate is located behind the filter on the rear
wall of the hood.
■ Wire sizes must conform to the requirements of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest edition), or CSA
Standards C22. 1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and
C22.2 No. 0-M91 (latest edition) and all local codes and
ordinances.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare Location
■ It is recommended that the vent system be installed before
hood is installed.
■ Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
■ Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum
before you select your hood.
1. Disconnect power.
2. Determine which venting method to use: roof or wall.
3. Select a flat surface for assembling the grill vent hood. Place
covering over that surface.
4. Using 2 or more people, lift grill vent hood onto covered
surface. Tip the hood on its back and remove filters and set
aside.
To Remove Filters:
1. Using the filter handles, pull filter towards the front of the grill
vent hood.
2. Pivot the back edge of the filter towards the back of the grill
vent hood.
3. Drop the front edge of the filter down and remove.
Wood Mounting Strip Installation
1. Determine and mark the centerline on the wall where the grill
vent hood will be installed.
Based on the ceiling or soffit height, determine the distance
“X” (30" [76.2 cm] min, 36" [91.4 cm] max) needed between
the cooking surface and the bottom of the grill vent hood. To
this distance, add 15¹⁄₈" (43.8 cm) and draw a horizontal line
(A) about 24" (61.0 cm) long centered on the vertical
centerline (B) at this distance for the wood mounting strip.
2. Locate and mark the wall studs along the horizontal line.
3. Center the 1” x 4” (2.5 x 10.2 cm) wood mounting strip above
the horizontal line.
A. Filter handles
B. Front edge of filter
C.Back edge of filter
