! 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 disconnecting means 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 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) 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 solid-state speed control device.
8.To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
9.This unit must be grounded.
10.When applicable local regulations comprise more restrictive installation and/or certification requirements, the aforementioned requirements prevail on those of this document and the installer agrees to conform to these at his own expense.
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.: Crêpes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
c)Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan, filters or in exhaust ducts.
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 — This could cause a violent steam explosion.
4.Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
A.You own 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.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.
5.The minimum hood distance above cooktop must not be less than 24". For best capture of cooking impurities, the bottom of the hood should be at a maximum of 30" above cooking surface.
6.Two installers are recommended because of the large size and weight of this unit.
7.To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside — Do not exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceiling or into attics, crawl space or garage.
8.Because of the high exhausting capacity of this unit, you should make sure enough air is entering the house to replace exhausted air by opening a window close to or in the kitchen.
9.To reduce the risk of fire and electrical shock, the Broan Elite EW43 Series models should only be installed with their own built-in blower.
10.When used in recirculation mode, to reduce the risk of fire and shock, use only conversion kit model ARKEW43.
11.Please read specification label on product for further information and requirements.

! WARNING
When performing installation, servicing or cleaning the unit, it is recommended to wear safety glasses and gloves.
2.1 NON-DUCTED INSTALLATION
The ARKEW43 non-duct kit is required for a non-ducted installation.
2.2 DUCTED INSTALLATION |
|
ROOF CAP |
|
Plan where and how the ductwork will be installed. |
|
6” ROUND |
|
|
|
||
A straight, short duct run will allow the hood to perform most efficiently. Long duct |
|
|
|
|
|
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 longer duct runs. |
|
|
|
Install wall or roof cap. Connect 6” round metal ductwork to cap and work back |
|
|
|
towards the hood location. Use 2” metal foil duct tape to seal the joints. |

3. BUILD FRAMEWORK
!WARNING
•When cutting or drilling into wall, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
•When building framework, always follow all applicable construction codes and standards.
Construct wood wall framing that is even with the surface of wall studs.
Wood wall framing must be at least 1/2” thick and 3” high. Fasten wood wall framing to wall studs for a solid installation.
Make sure that the height of the framing will allow the retaining screws to be secured to the framing within the dimensions shown.
After wall surface is finished, using a level, draw a vertical line up to the ceiling starting from the center of the planned hood location. Measure and mark the retaining screw locations using the measurements given in illustration at right. Insert 2 M4 x 38 Phillips round head mounting screws in wall framing; do not completely tighten the screws at this time.
