KEEP FLAMMABLE OR COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL AWAY FROM FLAMES. If the flames do not
go out immediately, EVACUATE THE AREAAND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT or 911.
NEVER PICK UP A BURNING PAN – You May Get Burned.
DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a violent steam blast will result.
Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
•
•
•
a) You have a Class A, B, C extinguisher and know how to operate it.
b) The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
c) The fire department has been called.

published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for
Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and code authorities.

Preparation Before Installation
Figure 1
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 Figure 1.
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.
•
Temporarily wire the hood to test for proper operation
before installing.
•
•
Important: Peel protective film off the hood, if any.
Use duct tape to seal joints between pipe sections.
Figure 2
CAUTION:
If moving the cooking range is
necessary to install the hood, turn off the power in an
electric range at the main electrical box. SHUT OFF
THE GAS BEFORE MOVING A GAS RANGE. And use a
protective covering to protect cooktop and/or
countertop from damage.
Custom Hood Preparation
1. The custom hood frame must be sized to shape and the
weight of the insert. Refer to Measurements and
Diagrams on Page 11.
2. It must have a sturdy base (1/2 inch thick plywood
recommended) to sustain the weight of insert.
3. If an optional liner will be installed, the side of the wood
cabinet must be sturdy (1/2 inch thick plywood
recommended).
Figure 3
4. It is recommended to install a rear and front stud
support. Refer to Figure 2. The stud supports are
located 1-1/2” up from the base of the wood frame.
Liner Installation
5. The custom/wood hood must have a sturdy base to
accommodate the cut-out for the inset. The base must
be recessed to accommodate the height of the liner (See
liner dimension on Page 12)
6. Secure the liner to the bottom of the base using screws
(not included) appropriate for the size and material of
your wood frame.
7. Position the rear section of the liner so that it aligns with
the back edge of the custom wood frame. Use a pen to
trace the outline of the pre-cut area. Remove the liner
and proceed to Hood Preparation Before Installation on
Page 6.
8. Install the liner with 5 screws (not provided).

contact with stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these compounds contain chemicals,
which may be harmful. Rinse with water after exposure and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
