TO REDUCETHE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR IN=
JURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufac-
turer, 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 the service disconnecting means to prevent
power from being switched on accidentally. When the ser-
vice 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.
4. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhaust-
ing of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equip-
ment to prevent backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment
manufacturer's guideline and safety standards such as those
published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA),
and the American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air
Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code au-
thorities.
5. This product may have sharp edges. Be careful to avoid cuts
and abrasions during installationand 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. Use only metal ductwork.
9. Do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.
10.As an alternative, this product may be installed with the UL-
approved cord kit designated for the product, following in-
structions packed with the cord kit.
11.This unit must be grounded.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
1. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings.
Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ig-
nite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.
2. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when
flamb6ing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Pep-
percorn Beef Flamb6).
3. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be al-
lowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
4. 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 CALLTHE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
2. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN --You may be burned or
spread the fire.
3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - a
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 Firesafety Tips" published by NFPA.
CAUTION
1. For indoor use only.
2. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust haz-
ardous or explosive materials and vapors.
3. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbal-
anced impeller, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc.,
off power unit.
4. Do not use over cooking equipment greater than 60,000
BTU/hr.
5. Your hood motor has a thermal overload which will automati-
cally 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.
6. A maximum height of 24" above the cooktop is recommend-
ed for best capture of cooking impurities. The bottom of the
hood MUST NOT BE LESS than 18" above the cooktop.
7. Please read specification label on product for further infor-
mation and requirements.

LIGHT BULBS
The light bulbs included with this hood are the latest in LED
cooktop illumination technology - offering bright lighting and
lasting up to 10 times as long as a normal bulb. While they are
available as service parts, these bulbs are designed to last the
life of the hood.
CLEANING & 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
dishwashing 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.
See "INSTALL FILTERS" section for removal and installation
instructions.
Non-ducted Recirculation Filter
The non-ducted recirculation filter should be changed every 3-6
months. Replace more often if your cooking style generates extra
grease, such as frying and wok cooking.
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.
