Install The Ductwork; Install Mounting Bracket; Install The Hood - KENMORE ELITE 233.5230 Serie Manual De Uso Y Cuidado / Instalacion

NOTE: To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal
ductwork.
1. Decide where the ductwork will run between the
hood and the outside.
2. A straight, short duct run will allow the hood to
perform most efficiently.
3. Long duct runs, elbows, and transitions will
reduce the performance of the hood. Use as
few of them as possible. Larger ducting may be
required for best performance with longer duct
runs.
4. Install a roof or wall cap. Connect round metal
ductwork to cap and work back towards hood
location. Use duct tape to seal the joints between
ductwork sections.
1. Construct wood wall framing that is flush with
interior surface of wall studs.
Make sure:
a) the framing is centered over installation loca-
tion.
b) the height of the framing will allow the
mounting bracket to be secured to the fram-
ing within the dimensions shown.
2. After wall surface is finished, secure mounting
bracket to framing using dimensions shown.
1. Hang the hood from the bracket through the
rectangular cut-out on the back of the hood.
Cut-out is larger than the bracket to allow for
horizontal adjustment.
The bottom of the hood should be 24" to 30"
above the cooking surface.
2. Attach (2) hood height / angle adjustment
screws (3,9 x 9,5mm) to hood bracket. Use these
screws to level the hood.
3. Secure the hood with mounting screws (4,8 x
3,8mm). Use drywall anchors, provided, if wall
studs or framing are not available.
