3. INSTALL BACKSPLASH

ABWPD Series
Backsplash must be installed before the hood shell because the hood shell covers the backsplash top mounting
screws. In order to be able to install the backsplash, make sure there is at least 18'' (457 mm) clearance between
bottom of hood and range control panel or cooktop. (refer to instructions included with backsplash).
If this backsplash is installed in a saline environment (e.g. coast), rinse all surfaces once a week
with clear water, (even if the hood is not used) and wipe dry completely.
4. INSTALL WOOD STRIP
Measure and mark a level line on wall above cooktop
location for the wood mounting strip (see illustration
on page 4).
Center the provided wood mounting strip over location.
Secure strip to the wall studs or framing with provided
#10-2" wood screws as shown.
Due to the weight of this hood, ensure that the wood strip is attached to all of the available wall
studs (2 studs minimum for the 36'' hood, more as hood width increases); not into the drywall
alone.
