CH00 SERIES – UNDER THE CABINET INSTALLATION
Preparation before Installation
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 venting 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).
For installing under the cabinet with recessed bottom,
attach 4-inch wide wood filler strips (not included) on
each side. Refer to Figure 2.
Measure and create access opening for electrical
wires under the cabinet.
Hood Installation
CAUTION: If required to move the cooking
range to install the hood, turn off the power on an
electric range at the main electrical box. SHUT OFF
THE GAS BEFORE MOVING A GAS RANGE.
1. Puncture the knockout holes on the hood as shown
in Figure 3.
2. (This step only applies to 42" and 48" models.)
Attach exhaust plate on hood with four (3/16" x 3/8")
screws (included). Shown in Figure 4.
3. Using references on Table 1 and measurements on
page 23 center the hood in place beneath the
cabinet and flush with the front of the cabinet.
4. Draw electrical wires through cabinet access
opening. Refer to Figure 6.
5. From the bottom of the hood, place screw (provided)
into the exact center of each knockout hole. Make
sure all screws are in place before tightening screws.
CAUTION: MAKE SURE THE HOOD IS SECURE
BEFORE RELEASING.
6. For safety purpose, pre-drilled mounting holes are
provided through the back of the hood. For a more
secure installation, use as many mounting holes as
needed to secure from the inside of hood (screws not
included).
