• A 120 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15-amp, fused electrical circuit is
required.
• 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

INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTIONS
• 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, wall, or non-
vented.
3. Select a flat surface for assembling the range hood. Place
covering over that surface.
It is recommended that the vent system be installed before 7. Tape template in place, aligning the template centerline and
hood is installed, bottom of template with hood bottom line and with the
centerline marked on the wall.

Determine and mark the centerline on the wall where the
canopy hood will be installed.
Select a mounting height between a minimum of
30" (76.2 cm) and a suggested maximum of 36" (91.4 cm),
above the range to the bottom of the hood and mark
reference line on the wall.
NOTE: For installation locations with reduced ceilings
heights, the vent hood may be installed using the upper vent
cover for both vented and non-vented (recirculating)
installations.
8. Mark centers of the 6 fastener locations through the template
to the wall.
IMPORTANT: All screws must be installed into wood.
Remove the template.
