BEFORE INSTALLING THE HOOD
1 For the most ecient air flow exhaust, use a straight run
or as few elbows as possible. CAUTION: Vent unit to outside of building, only.
2 At least two people are necessary for installation.
3 Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most
types of walls/ceilings, consult a Qualified Installer,
check if they perfectly fit with your cabinet/wall.
4 Do not use flex ducting.
5 COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional
backdraft damper installed to minimize backward cold air
flow and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize
conduction of outside temperatures as part of the
ductwork. The damper should be on the cold air side of
the thermal break. The break should be as close as possible to where the
ducting enters the heated portion of the house.
6 Make up air: Local building codes may require the use of
Make-Up Air Systems when using Ducted Ventilation
Systems greater than specified CFM of air movement.
The specified CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult
your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your
area.

Preparation
Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist
or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be
constructed.
Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most types
of walls/ceilings.
However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the
materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
Recommended installation height:
Hood installation height above cooktop is the users preference.
The lower the hood is above the cooktop, the more efficient
the capturing of cooking odors, grease and smoke.
In cases where it should not
be possible to discharge
A
cooking fumes and vapour
to the outside.
Attach a charcoal filter and
B
the deflector on the duct
cover support bracket.
Fumes and vapours are
recycled through the top
grille by means of a duct
connected to the transition
and the transition mounted
on the deflector.
For this version only:
purchase the Ductless
Recirculating Kit.
Minimum Duct Size:
A. Deflector
B. 6” (15.2 cm) round vent
6” Round Pipe.
I CAUTION
For gas cooktop & range installations: Mount the hood so the
bottom is at least 30” (76.2 cm) above the cooking surface.
For electric/induction cooktop & range installations: Mount the
hood so the bottom is at least 24” (61 cm) above the cooking
surface.
There is no maximum mounting height, however, we recommend mounting the hood no greater than 36” (91.4 cm) above
the cooking surface. For every inch (2.54 cm) above 36” (91.4
cm), fume and moisture capture eciency diminishes at an increasing rate and may not deliver an acceptable level of ventilating performance.
This hood is intended for household use.
PLEASE READ THE INSTALLATION MANUAL FOR SPECIFIC
APPLICATION. Check your ceiling height and hood height
before selecting your hood.
Installation
Prepare location
• It is recommended that the vent system be installed before
hood is installed.

Maintenance
Cleaning
Do not spray cleaners directly to the control while cleaning the
Hood. The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly (at least
with the same frequency with which you carry out maintenance
of the fat filters) internally and externally. Clean using the
cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. Do not use
abrasive products.
DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!
I WARNING:
Failure to carry out the basic cleaning recommendations of the
cooker hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks.
Therefore, we recommend oserving these instructions.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to
the motor or any fire damage linked to inappropriate maintenance
or failure to observe the above safety recommendations.
Grease Filter
Traps cooking grease particles.
This must be cleaned once a month using non aggressive
detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be
set to a low temperature and a short cycle. When washed in
a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolour slightly, but this
does not affect its filtering capacity.
To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle.
A
Charcoal Filter
If the model is not vented to the outside, the air will be
recirculated through disposable charcoal filters that help
remove smoke and odors.
The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned.
They must be replaced.
The charcoal filters are clipped inside of each metal grease
filter (mounting instructions included with charcoal filters kit).
The charcoal filters should be replaced every 4-6 months
(depending on hood usage).
NOTE: DO NOT rinse, or put charcoal filters in an automatic
dishwasher.
NOTE: Charcoal filters are not included with the hood.
They must be ordered from your supplier.
Order the needed kit specifying your hood model and width
size.
