WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer at the address or telephone number listed in the warranty.

2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock service panel to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by a qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction codes and standards.

4. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guidelines and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

5. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

6. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.

7. Do not use this unit with any separate solid-state speed control device.

8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING - Improper grounding can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood,

or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified

electrician install an outlet near the appliance.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

A. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy

spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

B. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes

Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

C. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or

filter.

D. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:*

1. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

2. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - You may be burned.

3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - violent steam explosion will result.

4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

A. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you already know how to operate it. B. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started. C. The fire department is being called. D. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

* Based on “Kitchen Fire Safety Tips” published by NFPA.

CAUTION

1. For indoor use only.

2. To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside. Do not vent

exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.

3. Take care when using cleaning agents or detergents.

4. Avoid using food products that produce flames under the Range Hood.

5. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials

and vapors.

6. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impellers, keep drywall

spray, construction dust, etc. off power unit.

7. Your hood motor has a thermal overload which will automatically shut off the motor if it

becomes overheated. The motor will restart when it cools down. If the motor continues to shut off and restart, have the hood serviced.

8. For best capture of cooking impurities, the bottom of the hood should be a minimum of

21” (non-ducted), 24” (ducted) and a maximum of 30” above the cooking surface. See “Install Mounting Bracket” section for mounting restrictions.

9. Two installers are recommended because of the large size and weight of this hood.

10. This product is equipped with a thermostat which may start blower automatically. To

reduce the risk of injury and to prevent power from being switched on accidentally, switch power off at service panel and lock or tag service panel.

11. The light source is designed for this specific application and can overheat if serviced

by untrained personnel. If any servicing is required, the product should be returned to an authorized service facility for examination or repair.

12. Please read specification label on product for further information and requirements.

FIG. 1

Filter Alarm

After 30 hours of blower operation, the filter alarm is activated and Filter Alarm Indicator LED turns red. It indicates the grease filters need to be cleaned. After 120 hours of blower operation, the filter alarm is activated and Filter Alarm Indicator LED turns red and flashes. It indicates the grease filters need to be cleaned and the charcoal filters need to be replaced (for non-ducted applications). After cleaning the grease filters (and/or replacing the charcoal filters), reset the hour counter by pressing the Filter Alarm / Timer Rest button during display of the alarm.

When LED is red (motor off) it indicates the filter alarm. When LED is green flashing, it indicates timer is activated and Filter Alarm / Timer Reset button has been pressed.

When pressing the button during the display of the filter alarm (blower off) it resets the filter alarm. When pressing the button while the blower is on, it activates the tenminute timer function and the blower will automatically turn off in ten minutes.

The green LEDs indicate blower speed.

Activates the blower (at the last speed used) and increases the blower speed until the maximum speed is achieved.

Decreases the blower speed. If pressed for two seconds, the blower will turn off.

Turns lights on

Turns lights off

HEAT SENTRY™

Your hood is equipped with a HEAT SENTRY™ thermostat. This thermostat is a device that will turn on or speed up the blower if it senses excessive heat above the cooking surface.

1) If blower is OFF - it turns blower ON to HIGH speed.

2) If blower is ON at a lower speed setting - it turns blower up to HIGH speed.

When the temperature level drops to normal, the blower will return to its original setting.

WARNING The HEAT SENTRY™ thermostat can start the blower even if the hood is turned OFF. When this occurs, it is impossible to turn the blower OFF with its switch. If you must stop the blower, do it from the main electrical panel.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Proper maintenance of the Range Hood will assure proper performance of the unit.

Motor

The motor is permanently lubricated and never needs oiling. If the motor bearings make excessive or unusual noise, replace the motor with the exact service motor. The impeller should also be replaced.

Grease Filter and Charcoal Filters

The grease filter should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm detergent solution. Grease filter is dishwasher safe. The charcoal filters should be replaced when the charcoal filter alarm turns on.

Clean all-metal filters in the dishwasher using a non-phosphate detergent. Discoloration of the filter may occur if using phosphate detergents, or as a result of local water conditions

- but this will not affect filter performance. This discoloration is not covered by the warranty.

See “INSTALL FILTERS” section for removal and installation instructions.

Non-ducted Recirculation Filter

The non-ducted recirculation filter should be changed every 6 months. Replace more often if your cooking style generates extra grease, such as frying and wok cooking. See “INSTALL FILTERS” section, on page 15, for removal and installation instructions.

Stainless Steel Cleaning

DO:

• Regularly wash with clean cloth or rag soaked with warm water and mild soap or liquid dish detergent.

• Always clean in the direction of original polish lines.

• Always rinse well with clear water (2 or 3 times) after cleaning. Wipe dry completely.

• You may also use a specialized household stainless steel cleaner.

DON’T:

•

Use any steel or stainless steel wool or any other scrapers to remove stubborn dirt.

• Use any harsh or abrasive cleansers.

• Allow dirt to accumulate.

• Let plaster dust or any other construction residues reach the hood. During construction/renovation, cover the range hood to make sure no dust sticks to the stainless steel surface.

Avoid: When choosing a detergent

• Any cleaners that contain bleach will attack stainless steel

• Any products containing: chloride, fluoride, iodide, bromide will deteriorate surfaces rapidly.

• Any combustible products used for cleaning such as acetone, alcohol, ether, benzol, etc., are highly explosive and should never be used close to a range.

INSTALL THE DUCTWORK

DUCTED HOODS ONLY

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.

1. Decide where the ductwork will run between the hood and the outside. Fig. 6.

2. A straight, short duct run will allow the hood to perform most efficiently.

3. Long duct runs, elbows, and transitions will reduce the performance of the hood. Use as few of them as possible. Larger ducting may be required for best performance with longer duct runs.

4. Install a roof or wall cap. Connect 6” round metal ductwork to cap and work back towards hood location. Use duct tape to seal the joints between ductwork sections.
