READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING—TO REDUCE THE

RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR
INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:

A. Use this unit only in the manner intended

by the manufacturer. If you have questions,
contact the manufacturer.

B. 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 service disconnecting means
cannot be locked, securely fasten a
prominent warning device, such as a tag,
to the service panel.

C. Do not use this unit with any solid-state

speed control device.

D. This unit must be grounded.

CAUTION—FOR GENERAL

VENTILATING USE ONLY. DO NOT USE
TO EXHAUST HAZARDOUS OR EXPLOSIVE
MATERIALS AND VAPORS.

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.

*Based on “Kitchen Firesafety Tips” published
by NFPA.

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 settings.

B. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high

Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef
Flambé).

C. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease

should not be allowed to accumulate on

D. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware

appropriate for the size of the surface

RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR
INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:

A. Installation work and electrical wiring must

be done by qualified person(s)in accordance
with all applicable codes and standards,
including fire-related construction.

B. Sufficient air is needed for proper

combustion and exhausting of gases
through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning
equipment to prevent back drafting. 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 for Heating, Refrigeration and
Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE),
and the local code authorities.

C. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling,

do not damage electrical wiring and other
hidden utilities.

D. Ducted fans must always be vented to

the outdoors.

WARNING—TO REDUCE

THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY METAL
DUCTWORK.

• Do not attempt to repair or replace any

part of your hood unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.

For your
safety

Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch
power off at the service panel and lock the
service panel to prevent power from being
switched on accidentally. If the service panel
cannot be locked, fasten a tag or prominent
warning label to the panel.

Metal
grease
filters

Clean the grease filter after 30 hours of “on”
time. A signal light will alert you when 30 hours
has passed.

Remove the grease filters and wash them
either by hand or in the dishwasher using
non-abrasive soap.

To clean, swish the filters in hot soapy water or
wash them in the dishwasher. Do not use abrasive
cleansers.

Charcoal
filters

(on some models)

NOTE: To remove filters,
push them back and
down using the knob.

Front

For proper operation, be sure to use

the lower set of filter holders.

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 should be replaced when
they are noticeably dirty or discolored (usually
after 6 to 12 months, depending on hood
usage).

NOTE: DO NOT rinse, or put charcoal filters
in an automatic dishwasher.

The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned.
They must be replaced.

Order Charcoal Filter Kit (3 filters) WB02X10731.

This kit can be ordered from your GE Supplier.

NOTE: To remove the metal filters,
push them back and down using
the knob. Push the charcoal filters
back and down using the tab.

Front

For proper operation, be sure to use

the charcoal filters in the upper set
of filter holders and metal filters in

the lower set of filter holders.

Light bulbs

To change the light bulbs:

1. Remove the trim ring by turning it

counterclockwise.

2. Grasp the bulb on the edges and pull it
straight out.

3. Replace with the same size bulb.

These 12 volt, 20 watt halogen bulbs are
available at specialty lighting stores. Ask for GE
bulb or equivalent: Q20MR16/C/CG40–BAB.

Stainless
steel
surfaces

Do not use a steel-wool pad; it will scratch
the surface.

To clean the stainless steel surface, use a hot,
damp cloth with a mild detergent suitable
for stainless steel surfaces. Use a clean, hot,
damp cloth to remove soap. Dry with a dry,
clean cloth.

If food soil remains, try a general kitchen
cleaner, such as Fantastik®, Simple Green®,
or Formula 409®.

For hard-to-clean soil, use a standard stainless
steel cleaner, such as Bon-Ami®or Cameo®.

Apply cleaner with a damp sponge. Use a clean,
hot, damp cloth to remove cleaner. Dry with a
dry, clean cloth. Always scrub lightly in the
direction of the grain.

After cleaning, use a stainless steel polish, such
as Stainless Steel Magic®, Revere Copper and
Stainless Steel Cleaner®, or Wenol All Purpose
Metal Polish®. Follow the product instructions
for cleaning the stainless steel surface.
