IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. For indoor use only.
2. For general ventilating only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or
explosive materials and vapors.
3. To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, this range hood should not
be used with an additional solid-state speed control device.
4. To reduce the risk of shock, disconnect power before servicing.
5. To reduce the 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.
PLAN THE INSTALLATION
1. Mounting height MUST BE at a minimum of 22” and at a maximum
of 30” above the cooking surface from the bottom edge of the range
hood.
2. The hood shall be mounted to the bottom of a standard wall cabinet. If
the hood must be mounted directly to a wall, secure the hood to wall
studs.
3. All wiring must comply with local codes and the unit must be properly
grounded. Connection should be made to a 110-120 VAC lighting
circuit (15A) in the circuit breaker or fuse box.
This range hood is “Convertible”, it may be installed as a ducted or
as a non-ducted unit.
IF THE RANGE HOOD IS TO BE NON-DUCTED:
• Purchase non-ducted (duct-free) charcoal filter Model RFQTC.
IF THE RANGE HOOD IS TO BE DUCTED:
• Ductwork can be installed vertically or horizontally
• Duct runs should be as short as possible
• Avoid the use of elbows
• Use metal foil duct tape at all joints
• Do not use duct smaller than the discharge on the hood
• For 7” round ductwork installation, use 7” round damper, Model BP87
and 7” adaptor, Model K4892000, both sold separately

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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 any 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
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 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. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
8. 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 expenses.
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 ignite. Heat oils slowly
on low or medium setting.
2. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing
food (i.e.: Crêpes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
3. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed 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 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 - 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.

PREPARATION
1. Use the dimensional drawings (Refer to FIGURES 1-3) to lay out the
range hood’s mounting holes, wiring access and ductwork by marking
the cabinet bottom and drywall where applicable.
2. Make cutouts for wiring and ductwork.
3. If the hood is to be ducted, install the ductwork so that it is flush to the
range hood’s mounting surface.
• Refer to FIGURE 1 if the range hood is to be installed with a
horizontal discharge.
• Refer to FIGURE 2 and FIGURE 3 if the range hood is to be
installed with a vertical discharge.
4. Run two-conductor wire (with ground) from a power source to the
hood location. Bring approximately 12” of wiring through wiring hole
in cabinet.
5. Drill four 3/32” diameter pilot holes at points where mounting holes are
marked in cabinet bottom.
6. Insert four mounting screws, leaving approximately 1/4” of thread
exposed.
7. Remove and retain the mounting screws securing the 3¼” x 10” duct
transition to the hood.
INSTALLATION
1. Remove the necessary duct opening and wiring knockout from the
range hood.
If the range hood is to be installed as a non-ducted unit,
remove the wiring knockout only.
If the range hood is to be installed as a ducted unit, a baffle
plate is provided to close off the non-ducted vent. Install baffle plate
(Refer to FIGURE 4) by sliding into place behind grille. Use locator
bumps to orient in grille.
2. For 7” round discharge installation, refer to FIGURE 5.
Secure 7” adapter (Model K4892000, sold separately) to the top
of hood. Install 7” round damper (Model BP87, sold separately).
For 3¼” x 10” vertical discharge installation, refer to FIGURE 6.
Secure 3¼” x 10” transition (if used) to top of hood.
For 3¼” x 10” horizontal discharge installation, refer to FIGURE 7.
If using the supplied 3¼” x 10” duct transition, remove the damper flap
from the transition to prevent possible venting interference. Position
transition into wall cutout.
Note: The transition does not fasten to the hood.
3. Feed the wiring through the access hold and into the electrical box.
4. Align hood’s keyhole mounting slots over the four partially installed
screws.
5. Making sure the duct positions over the hood’s duct transition,
push the hood against the rear wall. Secure hood by tightening screws.
6. Using a long blade screwdriver, reach into the discharge opening
and make sure the damper flap operates freely (vertical discharge only).
When performing installation, servicing or cleaning the
unit, it is recommended to wear safety glasses and gloves.

WIRING CONNECTIONS
All wiring connections must comply with local codes and the unit must
be properly grounded.
1. Make sure box connector is secure.
2. Refer to FIGURE 8. Make wiring connections.
3. Replace electrical box cover and secure with screw.
LAMP INSTALLING OR REPLACEMENT
1. Depress sides of light diffuser until tabs of diffuser disengage from
slots in hood. Remove diffuser.
2. Install two 40-watt maximum, Type A-15 appliance bulbs.
3. Replace diffuser in hood by depressing sides and engaging tabs in
slots in hood.
FILTER INSTALLING AND REPLACEMENT
1. For ducted operation, install the aluminum mesh filter. For non-duct
operation, install the non-ducted filter (Model RFQTC, sold separately).
2. Refer to FIGURE 9. The filter slides into channels at the back of the
hood, on either side of the fan compartment, and snaps under the
spring clips near the front of the fan compartment.
MAINTENANCE
FILTERS
IMPORTANT: The aluminum filter should be removed once a month
and washed in hot detergent water. Rinse in clear, warm
water and shake off excess moisture before replacing.
The filter may also be cleaned in your dishwasher.
IN A NON-DUCTED INSTALLATION: Replace filter every 3-6 months
as needed.
CLEANING: The hood should be wiped off occasionally both inside
and outside using warm water, mild dish detergent and a
soft cloth.Never use scouring powders, steel wool pads or
any other abrasive cleaners which will destroy the hood’s
finish.
