6. INSTALL WOOD MOUNTING STRIP

Measure and mark a level line on wall above cooktop location for the wood
mounting strip (see illustration on page 4).
Center the wood mounting strip over location. See illustration shown at side.
Use #10, 2’’ flat head screws to secure the mounting strip to the drywall.
Make sure to hit the wall studs.

CAUTION

Due to the weight of this hood, ensure that the wood strip is
attached to every available stud, not into the drywall alone.
