WARNING
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 medium settings.
B. Always turn hood ON when cooking at 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.
SAFETY INFORMATION
D. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the surface element.
WARNING
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.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,
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. E. When applicable, install any makeup (replacement)

How to Remove Protective Shipping Film and Packaging Tape
Carefully grasp a corner of the protective shipping film with your fingers and slowly peel it from the appliance surface. Do not use any sharp items to remove the film. Remove all of the film before using the appliance for the first time.
To assure no damage is done to the finish of the product, the safest way to remove the adhesive from packaging tape on new appliances is an application of a household liquid dishwashing detergent. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak.
NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all parts. NOTE: For further cleaning instructions/suggestions,
please refer to the Care and Cleaning section.

To pair with another device:
To start the pairing process on the hood, press and hold the Chef Connect button for 3 seconds. The backlight for the Low-Med-High-Light-Chef Connect buttons will flash in that sequence until the hood is paired with the range or other device. If the pairing is successful, all five backlights (Low, Med, High, Light, Chef Connect) will flash simultaneously three times and then turn off and the backlight for the Chef Connect button will turn on.
It will time out after 2 minutes if the pairing is not completed, after which the pairing sequence will need to be restarted.

Filters
Be sure the circuit breaker is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning or servicing any part of the vent hood. The metal baffles channel grease released by foods on the cooktop into the drip trays. The baffles also help prevent
flaming foods on the cooktop from damaging the inside of the hood. The baffles must ALWAYS be in place when the hood is in use. The grease baffles and drip trays are dishwasher-
safe and should be cleaned every month, depending on usage of the hood.
Grease Drip Tray
To install:
Place and seat the drip trays into the designated hood track. Slide them left or right until all trays are side-by­side in place in the track.
To remove:
Carefully, use the grease tray lip to lift the tray upwards and out. The tray will be free of the designated hood track.
To clean:
Swish the drip tray in hot soapy water and rinse in clean water or wash it in the dishwasher. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
NOTE: Some discoloration of the filter may occur in the dishwasher.
Drip Tray Replacement
CARE AND CLEANING: Filters
Baffle Metal Grease Filter
To install:
Insert the top of the baffle into the track behind the control panel. The arrows on the side of the baffle should be pointing towards the front of the unit. Slide the baffle up and push the bottom end back until it firmly seats into place.
To remove:
Use front knob to pull filter forward, towards the control panel. The bottom of the filter becomes free of the grease drip tray. Use back knob to pull the baffle away from the track behind the control panel.
It is important for baffles to be placed correctly with arrows on the side pointing towards the front of the unit to channel grease to the drip trays and avoid grease accumulation in the baffles.
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 of the filter may occur in the dishwasher.
