5. स्थापना आणि सेटअप
Proper installation is crucial for the performance and safety of your range hood. Due to the size and weight, installation typically requires 1-2 people.
5.1 इंस्टॉलेशनपूर्व चेकलिस्ट
- Ensure you have all necessary tools and hardware as listed in Section 3.
- Confirm the mounting location is suitable and can support the weight of the range hood.
- Verify electrical supply meets the product specifications (120V).
