• 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.

• 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.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord that has a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING

• Improper grounding can result in a risk of electric shock.
• Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
• Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install an outlet near the appliance.

Venting Requirements (ducted models only)

• The vent system must terminate outdoors.
• Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area.
• Do not use a 4″ (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall cap.
• Only use metal vents. Rigid metal vents are recommended. Plastic or metal foil vents are not recommended.
• The length of the vent system and the number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.

For the most efficient and quietest operation:

• Use no more than three 90 ° elbows.
• Make sure there is a minimum of 24″ (61 cm) of straight vent between the elbows if more than one elbow is used.
• Do not install two elbows together.
• Use clamps to seal all joints in the vent system.
• The vent system must have a damper.
• Use caulking to seal the exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.
• The size of the vent should be uniform.

Venting Methods
To use the hood’s top outlet to vent your hood, a 6″ (15.2 cm) round vent system is required. To use the hood’s rear outlet, a 31⁄4″ x 10″ (8.25 x 25.4 cm) rectangular vent system is required. Neither of these vent systems are included and must be purchased separately.

NOTE
Flexible vents are not recommended. Flexible vents create back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduces performance. The vent system can terminate either through the roof or a wall. To vent through a wall, a 90 ° elbow is needed.

Mounting Height
Select a mounting height between a minimum of 24″ (61 cm) for an electric cooking surface, a minimum of 27″ (68.6 cm) for a gas cooking surface, and a suggested maximum of 36″ (91.4 cm) above the range to the bottom of the hood.

Rear discharge
A 90 ° elbow may be installed immediately above the hood.
For Non-Vented (recirculating) Installations
If it is not possible to vent cooking fumes and vapors to the outside, the hood can be used in the non-vented (recirculating) version, fitting a charcoal filter and a plastic grid. Fumes and vapors are recycled through the recirulation grid.

Installation Requirements

General Specifications

Mounting Height

CAUTION

• Be sure to check the mounting height before installing the product.
• The mounting height is measured from the top of the range to the upper cabinets. The mounting height for an electric cooking surface is measured from its glass cooktop as shown in the image on the left. For a gas cooking surface, the mounting height is measured from the top of the burning grates as shown in the image on the right.

Venting Methods
Smoke is exhausted to the outside through a special pipe connected to the hood.

CAUTION

• The minimum connectable exhaust outlet diameter is 6″ (15.2 cm).
• Ensure the exhaust outlet diameter and duct diameter match, and then connect the duct to the wall outlet.
• If the duct and the wall outlet have different diameters, the suction performance will decrease while also significantly increasing noise.
• The manufacturer is not responsible for any problems caused by this.
• Use the minimum possible length for the duct, and do not significantly alter the cross-section.
• When connecting the duct, minimize bending. (Max bending angle: 90˚)
• In an environment where installing with an external venting method is possible, be sure to install only using the external venting method.

   CAUTION
   Please pay attention to the mounting height. The mounting height is measured from the top of the range to the upper cabinets. The mounting height for an electric cooking surface is measured from its glass cooktop. For a gas cooking surface, the mounting height is measured from the top of the burning grates.

3. Check the position for fixing the hood mounting bracket.

4. Fix the hood mounting bracket horizontally on the wall where the hood is to be installed using screw anchors, hood mounting bracket screws, and washers.
   Be sure to install it on the wall using the two 30 mm screw anchors.
   NOTE
   For a secure hold, use a 130 mm screw anchor.

Connecting the Vent System

   NOTE

   • Damper is provided in NK3*CB600W**.
   • Electric Damper is provided in
     NK3*CB700W.
     CAUTION**
     Check that the electric damper is seated correctly on the screw thread and there is no tilt. If the electric damper is not flush, air will leak through the gap.

6. Assemble the damper adapter pushing into the damper or electric damper. Fix it using tape.
   NOTE

   • If the hood is NK3*CB600W**, please follow it from No.10.
   • If the hood is NK3*CB700W**, please follow it from No.7.

7. Remove the cover by loosening the screw on the PCB cover.

8. Connect the connector of the electric damper wire and the PCB connector.
   NOTE
   Insert the wire into the hole at the top left corner.

9. Assemble the PCB cover using a screw.
   NOTE
