General Preparation
Caution!
Please be sure to turn the electrical power switch OFF before beginning
the installation.
1. Remove the range hood from the carton.
2. Lay the range hood upside down on a table covered with either cardboard or paper
to prevent scratching the hood or table.
3. Remove the 3 grease filters from the hood. Place them somewhere safe so they will
not be damaged.
4. Use only Halogen MR-16 type bulbs. (Not shipped with range hood.)
5. Remove the range hood’s blower. Use a 3/8" nut driver or ratchet to remove the 4 nuts
holding it in position (Fig. 1). Place the blower and nuts somewhere safe until needed.
The wires to the blower are inside a housing. The top of the housing must be removed
first to get to the blower wires.
6. Turn the hood right side up so you can see the
duct knockouts and mounting holes.
