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
■ 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:
■ 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.

do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control
device.

Installation Clearances

A
■ Use clamps to seal all joints in the vent system.
■ The vent system must have a damper. If roof or wall cap has a
damper, do not use damper supplied with the range hood.
■ Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the
cap.
Cold Weather Installations
C
D
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 make up 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 Requirements
(Vented Models Only)
■ Vent system must terminate to the outdoors, except for non-
vented (recirculating) installations.
■ Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed
area.
■ Do not use a 4" (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall cap.
■ Use a 6" (15.2 cm) or larger round metal vent or a 3¹⁄₄" x 10"
(8.3 x 25.4 cm) rectangular metal vent. 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 cm) of straight vent
between the elbows if more than 1 elbow is used.
■ Do not install 2 elbows together.
Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. Use
3¹⁄₄" x 10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm) with a maximum vent length of
35 ft (10.7 m) or 6" (15.2 cm) or larger round vent with a maximum
length of 50 ft (15.2 m) for vent system.
NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates
back pressure and air turbulence that gently reduces
performance.

Electrical Requirements
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.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the
ground path is adequate.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association
One Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02269
CSA International
8501 East Pleasant Valley Road
Cleveland, OH 44131-5575
■ A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15-amp, fused electrical circuit is
required.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare Location
NOTE: For vented installations, it is recommended that the vent
system be installed before hood is installed.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance
within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
NOTE: The exhaust adapter/damper can be installed up to
1" (2.5 cm) on either side of the hood center to accommodate
off-center ductwork.
1. Disconnect power.
2. Determine which venting method to use: roof or wall.
3. Select a flat surface for assembling the range hood. Place
covering over that surface.
■ If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure
below:
1. Connect a section of solid copper wire to the pigtail
leads.
2. Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of
copper wire using special connectors and/or tools
designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.
Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended
procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with
local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.
■ Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of
the appliance as specified on the model/serial rating plate.
The model/serial plate is located behind the filter on the rear
wall of the range hood.
■ Wire sizes must conform to the requirements of the 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.

Install Vent System
1. Install vent through the vent opening in upper cabinet or wall.
Complete venting system according to the selected venting
method. See “Venting Requirements” section.
2. Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the
cap.
Install Range Hood
1. Remove the grease filters. See the “Range Hood Care”
section.
2. Remove mounting screws and lateral supports.
For vented installations:
■ Depending on your installation, remove either top or rear
rectangular vent knockout.
NOTE:
Do not remove rectangular knockouts if installation
of range hood is to be non-venting (recirculating).
■ Make sure damper pivot is nearest to top/back edge of
range hood.
■ Remove tape from damper flap.
NOTE: The exhaust adapter/damper can be installed up
to 1" (2.5 cm) on either side of the hood center to
accommodate off-center ductwork.
■ If using rectangular vent, attach rectangular damper/vent
connectors to the range hood using sheet metal screws.

NOTE: If the wall cap is directly behind the vent
connector, the dampers in the connector and wall cap
must not interfere with each other. Remove the vent
connector damper if they interfere.
3. Lift the range hood up under cabinet and determine final
location by centering beneath cabinet. Mark on the underside
