Safety Information

Always follow basic safety precautions when using electrical appliances to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. This appliance is intended for normal household use only. Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your range hood unless specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

• Ensure the power supply is disconnected before any installation, maintenance, or cleaning.
• Proper ventilation is crucial. Do not exhaust air into walls, ceilings, attics, crawl spaces, or garages.
• Always use ductwork that is properly sized and sealed.
• Clean grease filters regularly to prevent grease fires.
• Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boil-overs cause smoking and greasy spill-overs that may ignite.
• Use appropriate size cookware on the range.

Ducted Installation

For ducted installation, the range hood exhausts air outside your home through a duct system.

Ductless (Recirculating) Installation

For ductless installation, air is filtered through an optional carbon filter kit (Part # USGDCF-Y, sold separately) and recirculated back into the kitchen.

General Installation Steps

1. Prepare the Mounting Location: Mark the desired height for the range hood above your cooking surface. The recommended distance is typically 24-30 inches. Locate wall studs for secure mounting.
2. Install Mounting Brackets: Securely attach the provided mounting brackets to the wall using appropriate screws and anchors. Ensure they are level and can support the weight of the hood.
3. Mount the Range Hood: Carefully lift the range hood and hang it onto the installed mounting brackets. Secure the hood to the wall using additional screws if necessary.
4. Connect Ductwork (Ducted): Attach the flexible duct pipe to the exhaust outlet on the top of the hood and route it to your exterior vent. Ensure all connections are sealed to prevent air leaks.
5. Install Carbon Filters (Ductless): If using the ductless option, install the carbon filters (sold separately) according to their instructions.
6. Electrical Connection: Connect the range hood to a grounded electrical outlet. It is recommended to have a qualified electrician perform this step.
7. Install Chimney Covers: Slide the upper and lower chimney flue duct covers into place, securing them to the chimney mounting bracket and the hood unit.
