Installation Procedure:

In order to secure the safe use of the range hood and maximize its ability to ventilate cooking fumes, the installation height is suggested as follows: The distance from the countertop of the gas stove to the top board of the range hood shall not be less than 29 9/16″(750mm) and shall not be more than 32 1/2″(825mm). This installation height is only applicable to electric ranges. If the range hood is installed above a gas range, the minimum distance between the supporting surface of the cooking appliance on the range and the lowest part of the range hood should be at least 24”(610mm)(in USA)/25 5/8”(650mm)(in Canada). If the installation instructions for the gas range specify a larger installation distance, this should be considered. The installation height of the range hood is the recommended value, and the cupboard and the range hood shown in the figure is for reference only. When the installation height of this product (i.e. the distance between the supporting surface of the cooking appliance on the range and the lowest part of the range hood) is lower than 24”(610mm)(in USA)/25 5/8”(650mm)(in Canada), all parts below 24”(610mm)(in USA)/25 5/8”(650mm)(in Canada) are non-flammable parts of the range hood or parts working under safe and ultra-low voltage, and the deformation of these parts will not affect the protection against the touch of live parts.
The kitchen hood shall be installed at the recommended installation height for better fume absorption. The fume absorption performance will be affected to certain extent if the actual installation height is larger than the recommended installation height. If relevant laws in the region stipulate the installation height of range hood, it is recommended to abide by relevant laws.
The range hood can be installed in three ways, either with or without the upper cabinet. Caution:

1. One of the wood screws(#10×2 9/16″(ST5×65mm)) for duct bracket must be fastened to the wooden beam.
2. If it is necessary to drill the duct outlet at the back wall, the distance from the top plane of the range hood to the center of the hole should be at least 8″ (203mm).
   Warning: Excessively low installation height can cause overheating of the glass panel, increasing the possibility of breaking.
