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 the power off at
the service panel 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 & standards, including fire-rated construction.
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 systems 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 ceilings, attics, 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 the 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:
SMOTHER FLAMES with a close fitting lid, cookie sheet, or
other metal tray, then turn off the gas burner or electric element. 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.

Venting Requirements

Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed
area.
Do not use a 4" (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps.
Vent system must terminate to the outside.
Use only a 6" (15.2 cm) round metal vent. Rigid metal vent is
recommended. Do not use plastic or metal foil vent.
The size of the vent should be uniform.
The vent system must have a damper. If roof or wall cap has a
damper, do not use damper supplied with the range hood.

Do not install 2 elbows together.
Use no more than three 90° elbows.
If an elbow is used, install it as far away as possible from the
hood’s vent motor exhaust opening.
Make sure there is a minimum of 24" (61 cm) of straight vent
between the elbows if more than one elbow is used.
The length of vent system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.
Cold Weather Installations
An additional backdraft damper should be installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic thermal 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.
Makeup Air
Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems when using ventilation systems with 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.
Example vent system
90˚ elbow
6 ft (1.8 m)
2 ft
(0.6 m)
Maximum length = 35 ft (10.7 m)
1- 90° elbow = 5 ft (1.5 m) 8 ft (2.4 m) straight = 8 ft (2.4 m) 1 - wall cap = 0 ft (0 m) System length = 13 ft (3.9 m)
NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduce performance.
wall cap
Venting Methods
This range hood is factory set for vented installations. Vent system can terminate through either the roof or wall. A 6" (15.2 cm) round vent system must be used. The vent system length should not exceed 35 ft (10.7 m).

Venting Options

General venting installation
For vented installations:
Make necessary cuts in the wall for vent fittings. IMPORTANT: Make sure the vent system is installed before
installing range hood.
Rrecirculating installations:
A vent system (not provided) that directs the recirculated air back into the room either through the soffit or through the cabinet top is required. Use Recirculation Kit Part Number 4396565. For ordering information, see Assistance or Service.
IMPORTANT: If venting through the cabinet top, do not terminate the exhaust into dead air space such as an attic or enclosed soffit.
When venting through the soffit, assemble the vent system you will use over the exhaust collar, but do not attach the vent system yet.
NOTE: The vent system can exhaust out the front of the soffit or be rotated to exhaust out the side or end of the soffit.
Venting through the soffit
1. Assemble the vent system you will use over the exhaust
collar, but do not attach the vent system yet. NOTE: The vent system can exhaust out the front of the soffit
or be rotated to exhaust out the side or end of the soffit.
