IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE YOU START
INSTALLING THIS RANGE HOOD
WARNING: - 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 setting.
b)Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes
Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
c)Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
d)Useproperpansize. Alwaysusecookwareappropriateforthesizeofthesurfaceelement.
WARNING: - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING*:
a)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.
b)NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - You may be burned.
c)DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - a violent steam explosion will result.
d)Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
1.You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.
2.The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
3.The fire department is being called.
4.You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
* Based on "Kitchen Firesafety Tips" published by NFPA
WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.
WARNING-TOREDUCETHERISKOFFIRE,ELECTRICALSHOCK,ORINJURYTOPERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1.Usethisunitonlyinthemannerintendedbythemanufacturer.Ifyouhaveanyquestions, contact the manufacturer.
2.Beforeservicingorcleaningunit,switchpoweroffatservice panelandlocktheservice disconnectingmeanstopreventpowerfrombeingswitchedonaccidentally.Whenthe service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
CAUTION: For General Ventilating Use Only. Do Not Use To Exhaust Hazardous or Explosive Materials and Vapors.
WARNING-TOREDUCETHERISKOFFIRE,ELECTRICALSHOCK,ORINJURYTOPERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1.Installation Work And Electrical Wiring Must Be Done By Qualified Person(s) In Accordance With All Applicable Codes And Standards, Including Fire-Rated Construction.
2.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 guideline and safety standards such as those published by theNationalFireProtectionAssociation(NFPA),andtheAmericanSocietyforHeating, RefrigerationandAirConditioningEngineers(ASHRAE),andthelocalcodeauthorities.
3
3.When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
4.Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
ALL WALL AND FLOOR OPENINGS WHERE THE RANGE HOOD IS INSTALLED
MUST BE SEALED.
This Range Hood requires at least 24" of clearance between the bottom of the Range Hood and the cooking surface or countertop. This hood has been approved by UL at this distance from the cooktop.
This minimum clearance may be higher depending on local building codes. For gas cooktops and combination ranges, a minimum of 30" is recommended and may be required. Overhead cabinets on both sides of this unit must be a minimum of 18" above the cooking surface or countertop. Consult the cooktop or range installation instructions given by the manufacturer before making any cutouts.
MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION The installation of this Range Hood must conform to the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280 (formerly Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD, Part 280). See Electrical Requirements"
VENTING REQUIREMENTS
Determine which venting method is best for your application. Ductwork can extend either through the wall or the roof.
The length of the ductwork and the number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance. The size of the ductwork should be uniform. Do not install two elbows together. Use duct tape to seal all joints in the ductwork system. Use caulking to seal exterior wall or floor opening around the cap.
Flexible ductwork is not recommended. Flexible ductwork creates back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduces performance.
Make sure there is proper clearance within the wall or floor for exhaust duct before making cutouts. 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.
WARNING - To Reduce The Risk Of Fire, Use Only Metal Ductwork.
CAUTION - To reduce 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.
Cold Weather installations
An additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic thermal break should be installed to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the vent system. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break. The break should be as close as possible to where the vent system enters the heated portion of the house.
! WARNING
•Venting system MUST terminate outside the home.
•DO NOT terminate the ductwork in an attic or other enclosed space.
•DO NOT use 4" laundry-type wall caps.
•Flexible-type ductwork is not recommended.
•DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
•Failure to follow venting requirements may result in a fire.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
A 120 volt, 60 Hz AC-only electrical supply is required on a separate 15 amp fused circuit. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. The fuse must be sized per local codes in accordance with the electrical rating of this unit as specified on the serial/rating plate located inside the unit near the field wiring compartment.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION WITH WIRING BOX
THIS UNIT MUST BE CONNECTED WITH COPPER WIRE ONLY. Wire sizes must conform to the requirements of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition, and all local codes and ordinances. Wire size and connections must conform with the rating of the appliance. Copies of the standard listed above may be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association
Batterymarch Park
Quincy, Massachusetts 02269
This appliance should be connected directly to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) through flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed copper cable. Allow some slack in the cable so the appliance can be moved if servicing is ever necessary. A UL Listed,
1/2" conduit connector must be provided at each end of the power supply cable (at the appliance and at the junction box).
When making the electrical connection, cut a 1 1/4" hole in the wall. A hole cut through wood must be sanded until smooth. A hole through metal must have a grommet.
! WARNING
•Electrical ground is required on this Range Hood.
•If cold water pipe is interrupted by plastic, nonmetallic gaskets or other materials, DO NOT use for grounding.
•DO NOT ground to a gas pipe.
•DO NOT have a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit. A fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit could result in electrical shock.
•Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the Range
Hood is properly grounded.
•Failure to follow electrical requirements may result in a fire.
