* All measurements in parenthesis are in millimeter. IMPORTANT:
* All inch measurements are converted from millimeters, thus inch measurements are estimated. + Aminimum of 8” round (standard for this range hood) or 3-1/4 x 10” rectangular duct (purchased separate-
ly) must be used to maintain maximum airflow efficiency.
* Always use rigid type metal/aluminum ducts if available to maximize airflow when connecting to provided
duct.
* Please use Duct Run Calculation below to compute total available duct run when using elbows, transitions
and caps.
+ ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or transitions and turns. If long duct run is required, increase
duct size from 8” to 9” or 10”. If a reducer is used, install a long reducer instead of a pancake reducer. Re-
ducing duct size will restrict airflow and decrease airflow, thus reduce duct size as far away from opening as
possible.
* If turns or transitions are required: Install as far away from opening and as far apart, between 2, as possible.
* Minimum mount height between stove top to hood bottom should be no less than 27-inch*.
* Maximum mount height between stove top to hood bottom should be no higher than 30-inch*,
* [tis important to install the hood at the proper mounting height. Hoods mounted too low could result in heat
damage and fire hazard; while hoods mounted too high will be hard to reach and will loose its performance
and efficiency.
+ Ifavailable, also refer to stove top manufacturer’s height clearance requirements and recommended hood

Preparation
Advanced Preparations:
Be familiar with the controls of the range hood by reading
through Range Hood Operations, Page 12.
Place the range hood on a flat, stable surface. Connect the
range hood to a designated standard outlet (120-Volt, 60Hz,
AC only) and turn on the range hood. Verify all operations
of the range hood by referring to Range Hood Operations
Page 13.
Place all supplied parts and required hardware on a flat, stable surface and verify
the existence of all supplied parts listed on Page 4.
Carefully remove the white plastic protective coat from the range hood.
Preparations:
NOTE: To avoid damage to your hood, prevent debris from entering the vent opening.
Decide the location of the venting pipe from the hood to the outside. Refer to Venting Methods on Page 7.
A straight, short vent run will allow the hood to perform more efficiently.
Try to avoid as many transitions, elbows, and long run as possible. This may reduce the performance of the
hood.
IMPORTANT: Peel white plastic protective coat off the hood. if any.
Use silver tape or duct tape to seal joints between pipe sections.
For installing under the cabinet with recessed bottom, attach 4-inch wide wood filler strips (not provided) on
each side, Refer to Figure 1.
Using references in Measurements and Diagrams on Page 16, create access opening for electrical wires and
hood exhaust under the cabinet.
CAUTION: If moving the cooking range is necessary to install the hood, turn OFF the power on an elec-
tric range at the main electrical box. SHUT OFF THE GAS BEFORE MOVING A GAS RANGE.
Puncture the knockout holes (for mounting under the cabinet) on the hood as shown in Figure 2.
If necessary, attach two rubber stands with 3M adhesive tapes to the back corners of the hood.
Attach ducting transition to hood exhaust with included 10 round head screws as shown in Figure 3.

I. If the range hood or halogen light does not operate
after installation:
2. The range hood vibrates when the blower is on:
3. The blower or fan seems weak:
4. The lights work but the blower 1s not spinning at all,
is stuck or 1s rattling,
5. The hood is not venting out properly:
Check if the range hood has been plugged in, make
sure that all power has been turned back ON, fused
not blown and all electrical wiring are properly con-
nected.
Swap out light assembly to working ones to deter-
mine whether 1t 1s caused by defective bulbs. See
Replacing the light bulbs on Page 23.
The range hood might not have been secured prop-
erly on to the ceiling or wall.
Check that the duct sized used 1s at least 8” or 3-1/4
x 10”. Range hood WILL NOT function efficiently
with insufficient duct size. For example: 9” duct
over 8” hole and loosely secured.
Check if duct is clogged or if damper unit (half-cir-
cular flapper) 1s not installed correctly or opening
properly. A tight mesh on a side wall cap unit might
also cause restriction to the air flow.
The blower might be jammed or scraping the bot-
tom due to shipping damage. Please contact us im-
mediately.
Make sure the distance between the stove top and
the bottom of the hood is within* 27” and 30” in
distance. *Due to different ceiling height configura-
tions, recommended height may not be applicable.
Reduce the number of elbows and length of duct
work. Check if all joints are properly connected,
sealed, and taped.
Make sure the power is on high speed for heavy
cooking.
