Electrical:

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

If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure below:
1. Connect a section of solid copper wire to the pigtail leads.
2. Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of copper wire

using special connectors and/or tools designed and UL listed for
joining copper to aluminum.

Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended
procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with local
codes and industry accepted wiring practices.

Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of the
appliance as specified on the model/serial rating plate. The
model/serial plate is located behind the filter on the rear wall of the
range hood.

Wire sizes must conform to the requirements of the 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
edition) and all local codes and ordinances.

VENTING METHODS

Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. Use 3

¹⁄₄" x

10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm) rectangular with a maximum vent length of 35 ft
(10.7 m) or 7" (17.8 cm) or larger round vent with a maximum length
of 50 ft (15.2 m) for vent system.

NOTE:

Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates both

back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduce performance.
