INSTALL THE HOOD
Note: On stainless steel hoods, carefully remove the plastic protective film
from all exterior surfaces of the hood and decorative flues, prior to final
installation.
Note: at least two people will be required to mount the hood.
1. Raise the hood into its mounting position.
2. Align the rectangular opening on the back of the hood with the wall-mounting
bracket. Gently lower the hood until it securely engages the bracket. Fig. 12.
3. Level the hood with (2) 3.9x9.5mm mounting screws and secure with (4)
4.8x38mm mounting screws. Use drywall anchors provided if wall studs or
framing are not available. Fig. 12.
4. Install the discharge collar inside the tabs and secure with (2) 3.9 x 9.5mm screws.
Fig. 13.
5. Attach 8” round metal duct between the hood’s discharge collar and duct that
leads to the blower.
6. Tape all duct joints to make them secure and air tight.
7. Plug the power cord into the electric wall receptacle. Tuck excess cord behind
the flue.
