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 heat or when cooking flaming foods.
( i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Pepper
corn 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 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

The coal filter saturation is also indicated when the hood
is used in vented version.
The hood is provided with a storage device which counts
the number of hours of operation and which regulates
the lighting up of the coal filter saturation LEDS.
For the correct operation of this device, it is important
that the hood be switched off by pressing button (A)
before unplugging it for any maintenance work.

Filters
To remove the metal grease filter/s:
■ Unplug the hood from the mains
socket.
FOR MODELS PVIG940, PVWG936
■ Press the clips towards the centre and
remove the filters. Fig. 1.
FOR MODELS PVWS930, PVWS936,
PVWT936
■ Press the handles and remove the
filters. Fig. 2.
To replace the metal grease filter/s:
■ Follow the same procedure, but
backwards.
The metal grease filters are manufactured using anodised aluminium and have an unlimited duration.
Fig. 1
Fig. 2
Hood Operation
Turn the fan on for approximately 5 minutes before you
start cooking in order to create some upwards drafts
through the hood.
This causes the heat, smoke, steam, grease and odours
produced during cooking to be pushed outwards, thereby
preventing them from drifting into other rooms.
Use the low speed settings for normal use and the high
speed settings for strong odours or thick smoke.
The presence of drafts in the kitchen or in the hood
reduces the efficiency of the hood. These drafts
should be avoided wherever possible.

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning or servicing any part of the vent hood.
Make sure lamps are cold before cleaning the hood.
To clean the filter/s
We recommend you wash the filters at least once a
month, by hand or in the dishwasher. Let the water drip
out of the holes on the edges and leave the filters to dry
completely before reinstalling them.
To clean the hood surface
For general cleaning operations, rub the external part of
the hood made of glass, using soapy water or household
cleaning products, rinsing it thoroughly and drying it
with a soft dry cloth to avoid marks being left by the
water.
Stainless Steel Surfaces
Do not use a steel-wool pad; it will scratch the surface.
Shake bottle well.
Place a small amount of CERAMA BRYTE
®
Stainless
Steel Cleaning Polish and Conditioner on a dry cloth
or dry paper towel.
Clean a small area (approximately 8” x 8” or
20.3 x 20.3 cm), rubbing with the grain of the
stainless steel if applicable.
Dry and buff with a clean, dry paper towel or soft
cloth.
Repeat as necessary.

Use this chart to compute maximum
permissable lengths for duct runs to
outdoors.
Note:
Do not exceed maximum permissable
equivalent lengths!
Maximum duct length:
100 foot for vent hoods.
Flexible ducting:
If flexible metal ducting is used, all
the equivalent feet values in the table
should be doubled. The flexible
metal duct should be straight and
smooth and extended as much as
possible.
Do NOT use flexible ducting.
Note:
Any home ventilation system, such as a
ventilation hood, may interrupt the proper flow of
combustion air and exhaust required by fireplaces,
gas furnaces, gas water heaters and other
naturally vented systems. To minimize the chance
of interruption of such naturally vented systems,
follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s
guidelines and safety standards such as those
published by NFPA and ASHRAE.

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.
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.
The hood shall be installed at 30" (76,2 cm) minimum
to 36" (91,4 cm) above the countertop.
Check your ceiling height and the hood height
maximum before you select your hood.

line from the bottom of the hood to the ceiling.
3. Fasten the template using adhesive tape, making sure
the centre line corresponds with the bottom of the
hood.
4. Mark the centre of the fixing points (6 fixing points for
models PVWS930/936 and PVWT936; 4 fixing points
for model PVWG936) through the template on the wall
and then remove the template.
5. Trace a horizontal line on the wall 1” above the highest
fixing point and 1” below the lowest fixing point.
6. Find studs behind drywall by tapping wall or using a
stud finder. Mark the center of the studs with a vertical
line to the right and left of the marked fastener
location.
7.
Note:
All fastener location must span the studs
otherwise proceed as follows:
• Cutout drywall along marked lines.
• Install wood blocking between studs and make sure it
is flush with existing stud front. Make sure all
