Preparation
Electrical Requirements
The unit requires a 120V AC, 60Hz. 15A branch circuit. For future service, install 
the outlet in an easily accessible location.
Mounting Requirements
The unit must be mounted to the surrounding housing. See “General Information” 
on page 3 for
 suggestions for determining hood height.
For best results, install the unit as far up in the housing or hood as possible. This 
will improve the function of the appliance.
When calculating the load for the housing support system, be sure to include the 
weight of the ventilation unit. See “Ventilation Unit Weight” on page 4. for unit 
weight by model.
For proper performance, the housing must cover the entire cooking surface.
