SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Warning! – To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, always
exercise basic safety precautions, including the following:

1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.

2. Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this user manual.

3. Do not use any accessories not recommended by the manufacturer.

4. This unit must be grounded.

5. Do not use this appliance for commercial uses.

6. Do not use this unit with any solid-state speed control device.

7. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified technicians in
accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated
construction.

8. Sufficient air is needed for proper exhausting of gases of fuel burning equipment
through the flue (chimney) 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 local code
authorities.

9. When replacing an existing range hood with your new Haier Range Hood, turn
OFF the electrical power to the existing unit before removal.

10. Before servicing or cleaning the unit, turn the power OFF at the service panel
and if possible, lock the service panel to prevent power from being switched on
accidentally. When the service disconnecting cannot be locked, securely fasten a
prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

11. Do not repair, replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing.
Note: If for any reason this product requires service, we strongly recommend that
a certified technician perform the service.

12. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, be careful not to damage existing
electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

13. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.

To reduce the risk of range top grease fires:

1. Always turn the hood ON when cooking at high heat or when cooking flaming
foods.

2. Never leave cooking unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and
greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

3. Use proper-sized pans that correspond to the size of the stove, and the amount
of food being cooked.

4. Clean ventilation fans frequently. Do not allow grease to accumulate on the fan
or the filter.

Selecting the Venting Direction

The range hood can be used for either horizontal, vertical or ductless air discharge.
For the best performance, use the shortest possible ducting path and the least
amount of elbows when discharging horizontally or vertically.

Vertical Discharge – Vertical discharge is the most common method of hood
installation. If your kitchen has an attic space above, the ducting may be run
through the cupboard and the attic to a roof cap. Use a 7” round duct (not
included).
Another option, if your kitchen has a soffit above the cabinet, is to run the duct up
into the soffit and then discharge the air horizontally through the outside wall to a
wall cap.

Horizontal Discharge - If the range is located against an outside wall, then
horizontal discharging is ideal, provided there are no obstructions such as wall
joists or places where openings are difficult to make.

If a wall cap is used directly off the back of the hood, special care must be taken to
ensure that the damper in the damper/duct connector on the hood and the damper
in the wall cap do not interfere with each other when the range hood is operating.
This could result in either inadequate air delivery or back drafts. If this condition
exists, remove the hood damper flap. Sometimes when using a wall cap, it is easier
to duct vertically and than to use an elbow.

Ductless – In ductless installations, air is vented back into the kitchen through the
opening in the range hood grille. If you do not anticipate heavy cooking, this
method may be preferable. Ductless installation requires the use of a charcoal
filters (included) to remove odors, which should be replaced at regular intervals
depending on use. Check with your local retailer or dealer for replacements.
Note: This filter is not dishwasher safe!

For model HHX1030 you must remove the vent cover from the slots on the front of
the range hood. Save the vent cover for possible future use.

Cabinet Preparation for Hood Support

Mount the hood so that the bottom of the hood is between 24”-30” above the
stovetop.

Warning! When cutting or drilling into wall or cabinet, be careful not to cut
existing electrical wiring.

1. If the bottom of the cabinet is recessed above the bottom of the cabinet
door, then it is necessary to install wood strips on each side of the
recessed area on the bottom of the cabinet where the range hood will
be mounted. The wood strips should line up with the 4 keyhole slots on
the top of the range hood. Fasten the wood strips with wood screws
about 3” in from each end.
Note: The thickness of the wood strips should be slightly more than the
recessed dimension. The length should be cut to size.

2. Measure and mark the electrical wiring opening in the wall or the
cabinet. If the hood is to be vented, also mark and measure the duct
opening in the wall or cabinet.

Preparation of Electrical Connections

Note: If replacing an existing hood, the electrical cable may need to be re-routed to

the desired position.

1. Determine the location of the electrical cable to connect to the range
hood.

2. Remove the electrical knockout on the back or top of the range hood
and install a standard electrical cable clamp.

3. Transfer the location of the range hood electrical knockout to either the
bottom of the cabinet or the wall. Drill or cut a hole in the adjoining
surface to make room for the electrical cable clamp.

Preparation for Duct Connection

1. Remove the appropriate ducting knockout by inserting a screwdriver under one
end and prying it up. Then snip or break the attachment points.

2. Install the damper assembly to the range hood with the 2 screws supplied.

3. If discharge is vertical through a rectangular duct, remove the knockout sections
D, B and E only.

4. If the vertical discharge is through a 7” round duct, remove knockout sections
“A” and “B” and “C” only.
Note: Section “D” and “E” remain with the hood.

5. Mount the round collar (E22A -not supplied) over the opening on the hood by
using 3 shorter screws. Allow the bottom edge of the 7” duct to be inserted into
the collar.

Wiring Diagrams

Installing Ductwork

Your new range hood will operate at the highest efficiency if the number of elbow
and the length of the duct are kept to a minimum. The back draft damper flap
attached to the damper frame assembly, which is supplied with the hood, does not
impede airflow significantly. You may leave this in place even if you install a wall
or roof cap with another back draft damper.

Hood Installation

Note: All wiring installation must comply with local and national electrical code

regulations.

1. Lift the hood into position and guide the electrical cable through the electrical
cable clamp on the hood.

2. Insert the 4 wood screws from the bottom and securely fasten.

3. Secure the electrical cable in the cable clamp while allowing sufficient length in
the hood to connect the field wires to the hood wires.

4. Make the electrical connections using screw-on wire connectors. Attache the
black wires together and then the white wires together and then the green or
bare wire to the green grounding screw in the hood. Replace the wiring
compartment cover.

Caution! All wiring installation must comply with local and national electrical code

regulations.

5. Attach ductwork and use duct tape to seal all joints.

6. After turning all range hood switches to the OFF position, turn the power ON
and test your installation.

Use and Care

Aluminum Filter

For highest efficiency, this filter should be removed and cleaned periodically. Soak
the filter in hot water and mild soap or detergent. Rinse thoroughly and repeat if
necessary. The aluminum filter may be cleaned in the dishwasher. Heavy grease
buildup may not be cleaned easily, thus the filter may need to be replaced.

Charcoal Filter

Inspect this filter periodically. This filter cannot be cleaned and must be replaced
when it becomes saturated. Check with your local retailer or dealer to purchase.

Light Bulb

Do not use light bulbs that are brighter than 40 watts.

Exterior Surface

Wipe the range hood exterior with a soft cloth and a mild detergent suitable for
painted surfaces. Do NOT use abrasive materials such as steel wool pads or
scouring powders.

Repair or Replacement Parts

Warning! Disconnect range hood from the electrical power supply before servicing.
All parts may be obtained from service centers authorized by Haier, or may be
ordered directly from Haier. When ordering parts, please specify the range hood
model number on the rating label, which is located on the inside of the range hood.

Trouble Shooting

Fan does not turn on (but light turns on).

This is probably due to either a defective fan switch or a burned-out fan motor.
Both can be replaced without removing the range hood from the wall or cabinet.
Use an ohm meter to determine which component is not working. If the ohm meter
reads that the fan switch has 0 ohms of resistance, then it is the motor that needs to
be replaced. If it reads anything other than zero, then the switch must be replaced.

Fan only runs at one speed.

Please see instructions above for troubleshooting when your fan does not turn on
(but light turns on).

Fan circulates air, but does not vent outside.

If air is blowing through the front vent openings, then your range hood has been
installed for ductless operation. In order to convert the system to vent outside, a
technician must install metal ductwork from the range hood through either an
outside wall or the roof.

If air is not blowing from the front vent openings, check inside the cabinet above the
range hood. If you see a metal duct leading away from the vent hood, then you
have a system that vents to the outdoors. If you do not see a duct, your unit may be
venting through the back wall.

Light does not turn on (but fan turns on).

This could be because the bulb has burned out. Try replacing the light bulb. If the
light still does not work, either the light switch or the lamp-holder socket is defective.
Both can be replaced without removing the range hood from the wall or cabinet.

Night light does not turn on.

Please see above instructions for troubleshooting when the light that does not turn
on (but fan turns on).

Range hood does not turn on at all.

First, check for a tripped circuit breaker or a blown fuse, since the range hood is
wired directly to your household electrical system.

NOTE: All work must be performed by a qualified and licensed technician!
