It is important to make sure you have the proper electrical connection.
RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD
A 120 volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15-amp fused, grounded electrical supply is required. Use
an outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do not use an extension cord.
NOTE: Before cleaning, or removing a light bulb, turn vent hood off, and then
disconnect the vent hood from the electrical source. When you are finished,
reconnect the vent hood to the electrical source.

wall for exhaust vent.
•
Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum before you select your
hood.
