in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated
construction codes and standards.
• Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases
through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent backdrafting.

such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA),
and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
• When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring
and other hidden utilities.

1. INSTALL THE DUCTWORK (DUCTED
INSTALLATION ONLY)
NOTE: To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
1. Decide where
the ductwork

will run between
the powerpack
insert and the
outside. (FIG. 1)
2. A straight, short

3. Long duct runs,

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 wall cap or roof cap (sold separately). Connect metal ductwork to
cap and work back towards the hood location. Use 2" metal foil duct tape
to seal the joints between ductwork sections.
2. REMOVE THE ADAPTER/DAMPER
AND 6-IN. ROUND DAMPER
Detach and set aside the 3¼" x 10" adapter/damper and the 6-in.-round
damper (grey parts in FIG. 2) from back and side of the powerpack insert by
removing their 2 retaining screws. Discard the screws.
3. REMOVE THE CABINET BRACKETS
Detach the cabinet brackets (grey part in FIG. 3) from the back of the
powerpack insert by removing its 3 retaining screws. Discard the screws.
SCREWS
Fold up and down the bracket until it is split in two separate parts (FIG. 4).
Keep the brackets for possible further use.

Intended for domestic cooking only
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
A. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking
and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.
B. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food
(i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
C. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate
on fan or filter.
D. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the
surface element.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE
EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:*
1. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then
turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not
go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
2. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - You may be burned.
3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - violent steam
explosion will result.
4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
A. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you already know how to
operate it.
B. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
C. The fire department is being called.
D. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

• Saw (to cut holes in cabinet)
• Sheet metal shears
• Pliers
• Metal foil duct tape
2. OPTIONAL LINERS
For installations where the unit is less than 30" above cooktop, the powerpack insert should be mounted
into a metal liner to protect cabinetry combustible material from heat, in order to meet building code
requirements. This will allow easier cleaning and provide protection to the cabinetry. Refer to table at
right to find the liner model corresponding to the cabinet style and width. Visit www.broan-nutone.com or

B. The unit should be mounted centered laterally over the cooktop burners.
C. For back to front position, the unit must be mounted according to local building codes.
1. Cut a hole in the bottom of the cabinet, using the dimensions shown (FIG. 6), or use the optional liner as a template.
2. Where needed, install the metal liner.
3. Measure the remaining material of the cabinet bottom sides (C in FIG. 7), if it is 1/4" or more, there is no need to use the cabinet brackets. Go to step 8
on next page.
4. When there is less than 1/4" remaining material (C), carefully remove those strips. Measure the cabinet inner width (D in FIG. 7). Refer to the table below
to see which cabinet bracket edge configuration must be used.
5. Pay attention to the Ease of Install hooks location on the unit (distance given from unit front flange, FIG. 8). Measure and mark the position of the Ease
of Install hooks (shown as E in FIG. 9) on both cabinet side walls. Remove the unit.

• Your hood motor has a thermal overload which will automatically
shut off the motor if it becomes overheated. The motor will restart
when it cools down. If the motor continues to shut off and restart,
have the hood serviced.
• The bottom of the hood MUST NOT BE LESS than 24" and
recommended at a maximum of 30" above the cooktop for best
capture of cooking impurities.
