INSTALLING THE DAMPER
NOTE:
Only install the damper if you are using a venting system that does not already have
a damper. If this hood replaces an existing unit, the location of the air exhaust can
vary from one manufacturer to another. Ensure that the damper fits in the existing
opening before installing.

The damper and the adapter are located inside the range hood . To
access these parts, remove the bottom panel (K) if you have not
previously done so (see Fig . 12) .

position (3A & B) for top venting or in the back position (5)
for back venting . Adapter (D) is used for top venting only and
installs in position 3A and 4 .
-
Attach damper (C) or adapter (D) over chosen knockout opening .
Make sure the damper pivot is oriented on top such that the
damper stays closed when not in use .
-
Secure the damper (C) or adapter (D) to the range hood (A) with the
short tapping screws (BB) .
