cabinet. If the hood must be mounted directly to a wall, secure the
hood to wall studs.
All wiring must comply with local codes and the unit must be properly
grounded. The hood is connected to a 110-120vAC lighting circuit
(15 amp) in the circuit breaker or fuse box.
This range hood is “Convertible” – it may be installed as a ducted
or as a non-ducted unit.
iF the ranGe hood is to Be non-ducted:
