WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSON(S) 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 disconnecting means to prevent
power from being switch 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
qualified personnel 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), the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration
and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and the local
code authorities.

5. This product may have sharp edges. Be careful to avoid cuts
and abrasions during installation or cleaning.

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

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

8. Do not use this unit with any other solid-state speed control
device.

9. To reduce the risk of fire, use only steel ductwork.

10. This unit must be grounded.

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

cooking flaming foods (i.e. Crêpes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee,
Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

c) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be

allowed to accumulate on fan or filters.

d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for

the size of the surface element.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSON(S)
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 –
This could cause a violent steam explosion.

4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
A. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you

know how to operate it.
B. The fire is small and contained in the area where it

started.
C. The fire department has been 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. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust
hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

3. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or
unbalanced impeller, keep drywall spray, construction dust,
etc. off power unit.

4. Do not use over cooking equipment greater than 60,000
BTU/hr. as the blower motor will shut down intermittantly.

5. Your hood motor has a thermal overload which will
automatically shut off the motor if it becomes overheated.
The motor will restart when it will cool down. If the motor
continues to shut off and restart, have the hood serviced.

6. A maximum height of 36” above the cooktop is recommended
for best capture of cooking impurities. The bottom of the
hood MUST NOT BE LESS than 30” above the cooktop.

7. Two installers are recommended because of the size of
this hood.

8. To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure
to duct air outside. Do not exhaust air into spaces within
walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.

9. Be careful when installing the decorative flue and hood,
they may have sharp edges.

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

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

The grease filter should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm
detergent solution. Grease filter is dishwasher safe.

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.

Remove grease filter by pushing back on the metal latch tab. This
will disengage the filter from the hood. Tilt the filter downward
and remove.

NON-DUCTED RECIRCULATION FILTERS

The non-ducted recirculation filters should be changed every
3-6 months. Replace more often if your cooking style generates
extra grease, such as frying and wok cooking.

Rotate the filters to remove them from the blower and replace.

LIGHT BULB COVER

WARNING
Bulbs may be hot. Always allow bulbs to cool down before
removing them.

This range hood requires two halogen bulbs (Type JC, 12V, 20W
Max, G-4 Base - included).

To change bulbs:

1. Remove light bulb cover by gently pushing it upward and

turning it counterclockwise.

2. Replace bulb.

3. Re-install light bulb cover by gently pushing it upward and

turning it clockwise.

1. Decide where

the ductwork
will run
between the
hood and the
outside.

2. A straight, short

duct run will
allow the hood
to perform most
efficiently.

3. Long duct

the hood. Use as few of them as possible. Larger ducting
may be required for best performance with longer duct runs.

4. Install wall cap or roof cap. Connect round metal ductwork

to cap and work back towards the hood location. Use duct
tape to seal the joints between ductwork sections.

1. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electri­cal short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric 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.

NOTE:
A recessed “clock” outlet is recommended.

2. Position the electrical outlet within the space covered by the
decorative flue and where it will not interfere with the round
duct. Make sure the outlet is no further than 14” from where
the cord exits from the hood and that the outlet does not
interfere with a mounting bracket fastening area or where the
decorative flue touches the wall.
