DANGER WARNING

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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

■Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer.

■Before servicing or cleaning the 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.

■Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.

■Do not operate any fan with a damaged cord or plug. Discard fan or return to an authorized service facility for examination and/or repair.

■Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer's guideline 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 cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling; do not damage electrical wiring and other utilities.

■Ducted fans must always be vented outdoors.

CAUTION: For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

CAUTION: To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside - do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings, attics or into crawl spaces, or garages.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY METAL DUCTWORK.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

■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.

■Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

■Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.

■Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.

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.

■NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - you may be burned.

■DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - a violent steam explosion will result.

■Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

–You know you have a class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.

–The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.

–The fire department is being called.

–You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

aBased on "Kitchen Fire Safety Tips" published by NFPA.

■ WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.

*NOTE: The range hood chimneys are adjustable and designed to meet varying ceiling or soffit heights depending on the distance “X” between the bottom of the range hood and the cooking surface. For higher ceilings, an Extension Kit Part Number W10352733 is available from your dealer or an authorized parts distributor. The chimney extension replaces the upper chimney shipped with the range hood.

IMPORTANT:

Minimum distance “X”: 24" (61 cm) from electric cooking surfaces

Minimum distance “X”: 30" (76.2 cm) from gas cooking surfaces

The chimneys can be adjusted for ceilings between 8' 2³⁄" (2.5 m) and 8' 10⁄" (2.7 m) when mounted at 30" (76.2 cm) height over a gas cooking surface.

The chimneys can be adjusted for ceilings between 7' 8³⁄" (2.4 m) and 8' 4⁄" (2.55 m) when mounted at 24" (61 cm) height over electric cooking surface.

VentingRequirements

■Vent system must terminate to the outdoors.

■Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area.

■Do not use 4" (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps.

■Use metal vent only. Rigid metal vent is recommended. Plastic or metal foil vent is not recommended.

■The length of vent system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.

For the most efficient and quiet operation:

■Use no more than three 90° elbows.

■Make sure there is a minimum of 24" (61.0 cm) of straight vent between the elbows if more than 1 elbow is used.

■Do not install 2 elbows together.

■Use clamps to seal all joints in the vent system.

■The vent system must have a damper. If the roof or wall cap has a damper, do not use the damper supplied with the range hood.

■Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.

■The size of the vent should be uniform.

Cold weather installations

An additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a thermal break should be installed to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the vent system. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break.

The break should be as close as possible to where the vent system enters the heated portion of the house.

Makeup air

Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems when using ventilation systems greater than specified CFM of air movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale.

Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area.

Venting Methods

Typical Internal Blower Motor System Venting Installations

A 10" (25.4 cm) round vent system is needed for installation (not included). The range hood exhaust opening is 10" (25.4 cm) round.

NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduce performance.

Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent through the wall, a 90º elbow is needed.

Calculating Vent System Length

To calculate the length of the system you need, add the equivalent feet (meters) for each vent piece used in the system.

Vent Piece	Equivalent Length
45° elbow	2.5 ft
	(0.8 m)

90° elbow	5.0 ft
	(1.5 m)

The maximum equivalent vent lengths are:

10" (25.4 cm) round vent - 60 ft (18.3 m)

Example vent system

90 elbow		Wall cap
	6 ft (1.8 m)	Wall cap
	6 ft (1.8 m)

2 ft

(0.6 m)

The following example falls within the maximum recommended vent length.

1	- 90° elbow	= 5.0 ft (1.5 m)
1	- wall cap	= 0.0 ft (0.0 m)
8 ft (2.4 m) straight		= 8.0 ft (2.4 m)

Length of system		= 13.0 ft (3.9 m)

ElectricalRequirements

Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

Ensure that the electrical installation is adequate and in conformance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest edition), or CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. 0-M91 (latest edition) and all local codes and ordinances.

2.Connect the 6-wire connector assembly supplied with the in-line blower motor system to the mating cable connector from the range hood.

3.Locate the terminal box inside the range hood and install a ¹⁄ " (1.3 cm) UL listed or CSA approved strain relief (see “Complete Preparation” in the “Prepare Location” section).

4.Run the wire ends from the 6-wire connector assembly through the ¹⁄ " (1.3 cm) strain relief, leaving enough wire length to make the wiring connections. Tighten the strain relief screws.

5.Connect the wires from the 6-wire connector assembly to the wires from the wiring conduit inside the range hood terminal box.

6.Connect the same color wires to each other (black to black, white to white, etc.) using UL listed wire connectors.

NOTE: Connect the green (or green/yellow) ground wire from the wiring conduit to the green (or bare) ground wire from the home power supply using UL listed wire connectors (see the “Make Electrical Power Supply Connection to Range Hood” section).
