*NOTE: For 12” (30.5 cm) high cabinets a 6¼” deep x 8” wide
(14.6 cm x 20.3 cm) rectangular opening in the cabinet top is
required for damper transition clearance.
3. Consider the cutout chart measures to make the openings
on the cabinet. NOTE: 12” (30.5 cm) high cabinets without a
soft may allow the 6” vent and vent cover to be seen.
4. Cover the grill that protects the suction motor with the carbon
lter so that the slots on the lter correspond to the pins on
the sides of the motor protection grill.
5. Turn the carbon lter clockwise to block them (bayonet xing).
NOTE: The charcoal lters cannot be cleaned. It should be
replaced every 4-6 months (depending on hood usage).
You must cut the cable tie attached to the blower to make a
proper installation.
