PRE INSTALLATION

TOOLS REQUIRED

HARDWARE EXAMPLE

NOTE: Hardware not shown to actual size.

Venting Requirements

1. Hold the hood in position under the cabinet. For ducted installation, ensure that the outlet adapter enters ductwork and the damper opens and closes freely; otherwise it would greatly impact the hood’s performance such as lower suction power and louder operation.
2. As far as venting is concerned, decide a suitable location of the venting pipe from the hood to outside by having a straight, short vent run.
3. Try to use aluminum ducts with a uniform size and try to avoid any elbows and if at all an elbow is required, a minimum of 12″ straight run is imperative before the elbow. Clearance:
4. Clearance is related to the distance between cook top and bottom of the range ho0d and it should be in the range of 24″ to 30″. For gas range, the required distance is 30″.
5. Clearance is very important because installing below the range may result in some hazard/fire and instaling above the range would decrease the overall performance.

Hood Installation

1. For the hood installation, remove all the protective layers from the hood.
2. From the bottom of the hood, carefully place the screws in each of the pre-drilled mounting holes. Be sure that the ho0od is bolted to the cabinet before removing support.

Ductwork

1. After the hood is properly fixed, attach a pipe onto the hood exhaust.
2. Then tighten the joint with the aluminum foil and ensure that it is thoroughly airtight.

Electrical Work

1. Plug the power cable to a pre-installed duplex outlet.

Final Steps

1. Reinstall the cover by using the 3 previously removed screws.
2. Keep and store this manual.

CONNECTION

• This appliance can be installed in ducting version only.

DUCTING VERSION

• The duct and the roof/wall cap should be sourced locally.
• Determine whether the hood discharge vertically round ( 6in.) For vertically run ductwork between the hood location and the roof cap or wall cap. For the best result, use a minimum numberof transitions and elbows.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal duct work.

INSTALLATION

• This INSTALLATION primarily consists of Preparation, Venting Requirements, Clearance, Hood Installation, Ductwork, Electrical Work and Final Steps.

Preparation

1. If you need to remove the range, be sure to turn off the range’s power from the main switch. Turn off the main gas supply in case it is a gas range.
2. Remove the cover by carefully unscrewing the 3 screws as shown.

Duct installation

Vertically Discharge: Attach round(6 in.) outlet adapter and securely fasten the adapter with two screws.

1. Measure the size of the outlet adapter relative to the cabinet and create an opening in the cabinet to let pass the outlet adapter and power cable. Make sure there is excess opening to accommodate electrical wires and hood exhaust. If you are installing the hood under the cabinet with a recessed bottom, it is advised to use a 4″ wood fillers on both the sides.

PLANNING INSTALLATION

Before proceeding to install, please make sure you thoroughlyinspect the range hood for any possible damages or missing parts. If you identify that there are missing or damaged parts, we advise you to contact the relevant personnel as soon as possible to have the issues rectified. We also strongly recommend that you are completely satisfied with the item before you dispose of its packaging. In addition, we recommend testing the range hood by establishing a temporary connection to an outlet and turn on the fan and lights.

Please note
lf you fail to read instructions carefully on how to install efectively, we will not be responsible for any damages incurred on your part. We highly recommend reading this manual carefully before proceeding to install or using the range hood. You should use this range hood in duct mode only, meaning allowing to duct fume to the outside at all times.m We recommend hiring acertifiedtechnician to complete the installation of this range hood. Please check to ensure the main voltage is in line with the required voltage outlined on the rating plate inside the hood. You need to check the domestic power supply to guarantee adequate earthling before installation. Do not connect the range hood to any form of exhaust ducts carrying combustion fumes such as fireplaces, boilers or any similar items. While using the hood with non- electrical appliances, you provide adequate clean air ventilation. Adequate and clear ventilation eliminates or reduces the backflow of exhaust gas to penetrate the area. The minimum clearance between the cooking surface and the bottom of the range hood is between 24″ and 30″. However, the distances do vary for some appliances such as those with gas hobs which MUST be followed precisely. Do not exceed the maximum height of 30″ while in operation. Carefull remove the plastic protective film from the surface of the stainless hoods before installation.

CAUTION: Please hire a certified technician for installation to eliminate the risks of fires or electrical shock. Since the hood has sharp edges, it is highly recommended to use safety gloves. Make sure to avoid damage to the hood when using electrical screwdriver. In order to avoid malfunction, ensure that no debris enters the opening vent.

NOTE: The appliance may requires two or more persons during the installation as it carries weight which may cause physical injuries if worked on alone.
