SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

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 on high heat or

when flambéing 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. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate

for the size of the surface element.

WARNING – TO REDUCE THE 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-rated 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 guidelines and safety standards, such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and the local code authorities. When applicable, install any makeup (replacement) air system in accordance with local building code requirements. Visit GEAppliances.com for available makeup air solutions.

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. F. Turn off breaker to adjacent rooms while working.

WARNING

ONLY METAL DUCTWORK.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE

■ 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.

be in place when the hood is in use. The grease filter is dishwashersafe and should be cleaned every 6 months, or as needed.

Charcoal Filter

For recirculating installation only

If the model is not vented to the outside, the air will be recirculated through a disposable charcoal filter that helps remove smoke and odors.

The charcoal filter should be replaced when it is noticeably dirty or discolored (usually after 6 to 12 months, depending on hood usage).

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

The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned. It must be replaced.

Order Charcoal Filter WB02X11348.

To remove:

Pull downward on the filter lock to release the filter.

To replace:

Fit the tabs at the end of the filter into the slots in left side of the filter opening. Lift up the right side of the filter and push gently until the filter locks into place. Make sure the filter lock is in the closed position to secure the filter.

To clean, swish the filter in hot soapy water and rinse in clean water or wash it in the dishwasher. Do not use abrasive cleansers.

NOTE: Some discoloration will occur in the dishwasher.

Care and cleaning of the vent hood.

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning or servicing any part of the vent hood.

Stainless Steel Surfaces

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

To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe the surface in the direction of the brush line. Follow the cleaner instructions for cleaning the stainless steel surface. Cleaners with oxalic acid such as Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleanser™ will remove surface rust, tarnish, and small blemishes.

Light Bulbs

CAUTION

Allow bulbs to cool before touching.

To change the light bulbs:

1. Remove the lamp lens cover by inserting a

small flat blade screwdriver into each of the three slots and gently prying it free.

NOTE: Do not remove the outer trim ring (lamp assembly).

2. Wear gloves. Do not touch the bulb with your bare fingers. Skin oils can cause early lamp failure.

3. Grasp the bulb and pull it straight out.

4. Replace with the same wattage. Early bulb

failure and damage to or failure of the transformer may occur if wattage is too high.

These 12-volt, 20-watt halogen bulbs with a G4 base are available at specialty lighting stores and home building centers.

To order replacement bulb no. WB01X10239, contact the GE National Parts Center at

1.800.626.2002 or purchase from your local retailer.

5. Replace lamp lens cover by inserting the three retaining tabs into the three slots and pressing firmly in place.

Use only a liquid cleanser free of grit and rub in the direction of the brush lines with a damp soft sponge.

ADVANCE PLANNING

Duct Install Planning

• Determine the exact location of the vent hood.

• Use rigid metal ductwork only.

• Plan the route for venting exhaust to the outdoors. To maximize the ventilation performance of the

YHQWV\VWHP

1. Minimize the duct run length and number of transitions and elbows.

2. Maintain a constant duct size.

3. Seal all joints with duct tape to prevent any leaks.

4. Do not use any type of flexible ducting.

• Use the shortest and straightest duct route possible.

• Install a roof cap with damper at the exterior opening. Order the cap and any transitions and length of duct needed in advance.

• When applicable, install any makeup (replacement) air system in accordance with local building code requirements. Visit GEAppliances.com for available makeup air solutions.

Ceiling Framing for Adequate Support

• These vent hoods are heavy. Adequate structural support must be provided. The ceiling structure must be capable of supporting the weight of the hood and any inadvertent user contact loads (approximately 200 pounds). The hood support frame will be supported by 2 x 4 cross framing.

• Installation will be easier if the vent hood is installed before the cooktop or countertop below is installed.

Duct Covers

• All models are shipped with duct covers. For supplied duct cover ceiling heights for vented installation and recirculating installation, refer to table on page 12.

Remove house fuse or open circuit breaker before beginning installation.

Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug with this appliance. Follow National Electrical Codes or prevailing local codes and ordinances.

Electrical Supply

This vent hood must be supplied with 120V, 60Hz, and connected to an individual, properly grounded branch circuit, and protected by a 15 or 20 amp circuit breaker or time delay fuse.

• Wiring must be 2 wire with ground.

• If the electrical supply does not meet the above requirements, call a licensed electrician before proceeding.

• Route house wiring in the ceiling, as close to the installation location as possible. Allow additional length from ceiling joists to reach the junction box on the bottom of the hood support frame.

• Connect the wiring to the house wiring in accordance with local codes.

Grounding Instructions

The grounding conductor must be connected to a ground metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the hood.

WARNING

The improper connection of equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded.
