ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS Observe all governing codes and ordinances. Ensure that the electrical installation is adequate and in conformance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest edition), or CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. 0-M91 (latest edi- tion) and all local codes and ordinances. If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommendedthataqualifiedelectriciandeterminethat the ground path is adequate. A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

National Fire Protection Association One Batterymarch Park

Quincy, MA 02269 CSA International

8501 East Pleasant Valley Road Cleveland, OH 44131-5575

A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15-amp, fused electrical circuit is required.

If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure below:

Connect a section of solid copper wire to the pigtail leads.

Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of copper wire using special co nectors and/or tools designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.

Follow the electrical connector manufacturers recom- mended procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.

Wire sizes and connections must conform with theratingoftheapplianceasspecifiedonthe model/serial rating plate. The model/serial plate is located on the left side of the range hood.

Wire sizes must conform to the requirements of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (la est edition), or CSA Standards C22. 1-94, Canad an Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. 0-M91 (latest edition) and all local codes and ordinances.

IMPORTANT Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

It is the installers responsibility to comply with installationclearancesspecifiedonthemodel/serial rating plate. The model/serial rating plate is located inside the range hood on the left side (See page 2 for location). Range hood location should be away from strong draft areas, such as windows, doors and strong heating vents.

Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used. Given dimensions provide minimum clearance. Consult the cooktop/range manufacturer installation instructions before making any cutouts.

Grounded electrical outlet is required. See Electrical Requirements section.

All openings in ceiling and wall where canopy hood will be installed must be sealed.

For Mobile Home Installations The installation of this range hood must conform to the Manufactured Home Construction Safety Standards, Title 24 CFR, Part 328 (formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD, Part 280) or when such standard is not applicable, the stan- dard for Manufactured Home Installation 1982 (Manu- factured Home Sites, Communities and Setups) ANSI A225.1/NFPA 501A, or latest edition, or with local codes.

Vent system must terminate to the outdoors. Do not terminate the vent system into an attic or other

enclosed area. Do not use a 4 (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall cap. Use a 3x10(8.3x25.4cm)rectangularmetal

vent. Rigid metal vent is recommended. Plastic or metal foil vent is not recommended.

The length of vent system and number of elbows shouldbekepttoaminimumtoprovideefficient performance.

Forthemostefficientandquietoperation: Use no more than three 90 elbows. Make sure there is a minimum of 24 (61 cm) of straight

vent between the elbows if more than 1 elbow is used. Do not install 2 elbows together. Use clamps or duct tape to seal all joints in the

vent system. Theventsystematexitmusthaveacoldairdamper. Usecaulkingtosealexteriorwallorroofopening

around the cap. Best performances are reached with straight piping,

without elbows and using smooth pipe. Maximumrecomendedventsystemlength:35ft(10.7m).

Cold Weather Installations An additional back draft damper should be installed to minimizebackwardcoldairflowandathermalbreak should be installed to minimize conduction of outside tem- peratures as part of the vent system. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break. The break should be as close as possible to where the vent system enters the heated portion of the house. Makeup Air Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems when using ventilation systems greater than specifiedCFMofairmovement.ThespecifiedCFMvaries from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specificrequirementsinyourarea. Venting Methods Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. Use 3x10(8.3x25.4cm)rectangularwithamaximum vent length of 35 ft (10.7 m) or 7 (17.8 cm) round vent with amaximumlengthof50ft(15.2m)forventsystem.

NOTE

Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates both back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduce performance.

RANGE HOOD USE The range hood is designed to remove smoke, cooking vapors and odors from the cooktop area. For best results, start the hood before cooking and allow it to operate several minutes after the cooking is complete to clear all smoke and odors from the kitchen. The hood controls are located on the top of the range hood.
