PRE INSTALLATION
CAUTION
Due to the weight and size of these vent hoods and to reduce the risk of
personal injury or damage to the product, TWO, TO THREE PEOPLE ARE REQUIRED
FOR PROPER INSTALLATION.
- Please read the instructions carefully. Unpack the range hood and check that all functions are working before installing.
- Ensure that the voltage (V) and the frequency (Hz) indicated on the sticker match the voltage and frequency at the installation site.
- Check that the area behind the installation surface to be drilled is clear of any electrical cables or pipes, etc.
- The surfaces of the range hood are very easily damaged during installation if scratched or bumped by tools. Please take care to protect the surfaces during installation.
- Protect the cooktop surface below with cardboard, or the like, to prevent damage.
- The manufacturer shall not be held liable for consumer’s failure to observe and follow all pre-installation procedures and safety regulations.
- The vertical distance from the cooking surface to the bottom of the range hood should be at least 24” to 36” for best performance.
- Determine if your installation will be top venting or back venting, and ensure that the openings in the cabinet or wall are in the appropriate locations and appropriate size.
- If this is a new installation, choose the venting method that suits your needs. Cut out openings for the damper and for power access in the cabinet bottom or exterior wall, depending on the installation method chosen.
MEASUREMENTS
DUCT PLANNING
- The ventilation hood is equipped for 8” round ducts. This hood can be ventilated vertically through the top cabinet or ceiling. A duct transition piece is provided for vertical exhaust. You can use elbows (sold separately) to ventilate horizontally through the rear wall.
- Determine the exact position of the hood.
- Plan the route to vent the ventilation duct to the outside.
- Use the shortest and straightest path possible. For satisfactory performance, the length of the duct should not exceed 12.5 feet of equivalent length for all duct configurations.
- Use only metal ducts.
WALL FRAMING FOR ADEQUATE SUPPORT

INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
Caution: The range hood has sharp edges
Please wear protective work gloves to remove parts, installation, cleaning and
servicing.
Step 1:
- Connect the Duct into the Damper.
- Secure the Duct around the Damper with the Duct Clamp.
Important: For best results, the mounting height of range hood should be 65 – 75 cm (24” – 36”) above the top of the range.
Step 2:
Caution: When installing the hood, the height should not be too high or too
low. Before the installation, please inspect the maximum height of your
ceiling and bonnet. Too high, will affect the efficiency of the hood; too low,
stove temperature will damage some parts of the hood. So the installation
height requirement is: the distance between the bottom of the hood to the
surface of the cooktop is Max 36” – Min 24” (as figure showing)
Top and rear mount installation
Due to the weight of the unit, it is recommended to mount the hood at the
bottom of the upper cabinet and then fix it to the wall to avoid gaps.
- Use the installation template cut-outs to mark the necessary holes on the back and top of the hood with a pencil or marker.
- Remove the template after marking
- Use the wall stud finder to identify the number of drywall anchors required.
- Drill four (4) 5/16″ (8 mm) holes into the wall at each of the marked locations. Insert the drywall anchors into wall holes and firmly tap them into place. Insert screws into anchors and leave 1/4″ out for range hood to hang on.
- Remove an electrical and duct access hole in the upper cabinet.
THESE STEPS REQUIRE LIFTING AND HANGING AT THE SAME TIME – USE TWO/THREE PEOPLE - Locate the top (cabinet) holes and line up hood holes, while also lining up to holes with the protruding wall screws.
- Fasten the hood to the bottom of the cabinet by tightening screws with a drill or screwdriver.
- Tighten the screws to fix the hood to the wall once it is fixed to the cabinet.
- Run the ducting through cabinet and the electrical cables through electrical access hole.
Metal Filter Installation
- Install the Drip Tray inside the bottom rear of the range hood. (Fig 1)
- Install the filters by inserting at an angle towards the rear of the range hood. (Fig 2)
- Push the filter up and insert front of filter into front recess. (Fig 3)
- Slightly lower the filter then slide back until it is in proper position. (Fig 4)
