2) When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, be careful not to damage electrical wiring or other hidden utilities.
3) Ducted fans must be vented to the outside. a) Before servicing or cleaning unit, open the light panel and SWITCH POWER OFF AT SERVICE
PANEL.
b) Clean all grease laden surfaces frequently. To reduce the risk of fire and to disperse air
properly, make sure to vent air outside. DO NOT vent exhaust air into wall spaces, attics, crawl spaces or garages.

personal property or real estate or any bodily injuries whether caused directly or indirectly by the range hood.
WARNING
: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY IN THE EVENT OF A
RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
- Keep all fan, baffle/spacer/filter/oil tunnel/oil container and grease-laden surfaces clean. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan, baffle/spacer/filter/oil tunnel/oil container.
- Always turn hood ON when cooking.
- Use high settings on cooking range ONLY when necessary.
- Do not leave cooking range unattended when cooking.
- Always use cookware and utensils appropriate for the type and amount of food prepared.
- Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer.
- Before servicing, switch power off at service panel and lock service panel (if possible) to prevent power from switching on accidentally.
-
Clean ventilating fan frequently.

What to Do In The Event Of a Range Top Grease Fire
SMOTHER FLAMES with a tight fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, and then turn off the burner. KEEP FLAMMABLE OR COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL AWAY FROM FLAMES. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE THE AREA AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT or 911.
NEVER PICK UP A BURNING PAN – You May Get Burned.
DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a violent steam blast will result.
Use an extinguisher ONLY if: a) You have a Class A, B, C extinguisher and know how to operate it. b) The fire is small and contained in the area where it started. c) The fire department has been called. d) You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
What to Do If You Smell Gas
-
Extinguish any open flame.
-
Do not try to turn on the lights or any type of appliance.
-
Open all doors and windows to disperse the gas. If you still smell gas, call the Gas Company and Fire Department right away.
CAUTION
1) For general ventilation use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
2) To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) to prevent back drafting.
3) 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 code authorities.
4) Activating any switch on may cause ignition or an explosion.
5) Due to the size and weight of this hood, two people installation is recommended.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD – Can result in serious injury or death. Disconnect appliance from electric power before servicing. If equipped, the fluorescent light bulb contains small amounts of mercury, which must be recycled or disposed of according to Local, State, and Federal Codes.

INSTALLATION
PLEASE READ ENTIRE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE PROCEEDING
Calculation before Installation
To calculate installation, please refer to TABLE 1. (All calculation in inches.)
TABLE 1
A = Height of Floor to Ceiling B = Height of Floor to Counter Top
(Standard: 36”)
C = Preferred Height of Counter Top to Hood
Bottom (Recommended 30” to 36”)
D = Height of Hood E = Height of the Hood Installation [A – (B+C)] F = Height of Duct Cover [E – D]
SAFETY WARNING
HOOD MAY HAVE VERY SHARP EDGES; PLEASE WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES IF REMOVING ANY PARTS FOR INSTALLING, CLEANING OR SERVICING.
NOTE: BE CAREFUL WHEN USING ELECTRICAL SCREWDRIVER, DAMAGE TO THE HOOD
MAY OCCUR.

Preparation before Installation
NOTE: TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR HOOD,
PREVENT DEBRIS FROM ENTERING THE VENT OPENING.
Decide the location of the venting pipe from the hood to the outside. (Figure 1)
A straight, short vent run will allow the hood to perform more efficiently.
Try to avoid as many transitions, elbows, and long run as possible. This may reduce the performance of the hood. Temporarily wire the hood to test for proper operation before installing. Refer to figure 5 on page 6.
Important: Peel protective film off the hood and duct covers, if any.
Use duct tape to seal the joints between pipe sections.
Advance Planning
1. Mark centerlines of cook top or range on ceiling. Use centerlines marked on ceiling to position the mounting template as shown in Figure 2.
2. Remove and save template. Cut and remove ceiling drywall. Install 2” x 4” cross framing lumber (not provided) between ceiling joists.
3. The framing should be spaced 12-1/8” at the front centerline and 14-1/4” on the sides to accept the mounting screw in the telescopic stack. Refer to MEASUREMENTS & DIAGRAMS on pages
14. Shown in Figure 3.
4. Finish the ceiling surface. Be sure to mark the location of the ceiling joists and cross framing lumber.
5. Align the mounting template to the ceiling marks and tape in place. Cut the 7-1/4” duct open and approximately 1” wire access hole. Drill holes for the 8 mounting screws as indicated on the template.

Telescopic Stack Installation
6. Align the telescopic stack to the pre-drill holes on the ceiling and securely fasten to the joists and cross framing lumber with eight screws (not provided). Make sure screws are driven into center of joists and cross framing lumber for maximum support.
7. Adjust the blower unit to the telescopic stack using reference F calculated in TABLE 1 on page 4 and measurements on pages 14. Tighten blower unit to the telescopic stack with four (M5 x 15) screws (provided) as shown in Figure 4.

SAFETY WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. THIS RANGE HOOD MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED. MAKE SURE THIS IS DONE BY QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE NATIONAL AND LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES. BEFORE CONNECTING WIRES, SWITCH POWER OFF AT SERVICE PANEL AND LOCK SERVICE PANEL TO PREVENT POWER FROM BEING SWITCHED ON ACCIDENTALLY.
8. Route house wiring into the ceiling as close to the installation location as possible. Allow additional length to drop down from the ceiling to the electric box.
9. Connect the electrical wires according to color (green to green, white to white, and green to green) and cap with wire connectors as shown in Figure 5. Green wire must be grounded to reduce risk of electric shock.
Ductwork Installation
10. Use 7” round aluminum or steel pipe (not provided) to connect the 7” round damper on the hood to the ductwork above. NOTE: Place 7” round duct pipe over the damper. Seal with duct tape to make all joints secure and air tight. NOTE: MAKE SURE FLAPS ON DAMPER CAN OPEN & CLOSE FREELY. (Figure 6)

Duct Cover Installation
11. Slide the inner duct cover up and secure to the telescopic stack with four (ST 3 x 15) screws (provided). Refer to Figure 7.
12. With assistance, slide the outer duct cover to the blower unit and ask assistant to hold steady until step 15 is completed.
13. Attach glass canopy with LCD screen underneath the blower unit. Make sure blower unit is inside the housing connector. Refer to the PARTS LIST on pages 14.
14. Secure the housing connector to the blower unit with eight (M5 x 15) screws (provided) as shown in Figure 8.
15. Ask assistant to slide outer duct cover downward so it rest within the grooves of the glass canopy.

Cleaning Hood Surface
CAUTION
For optimal operation, clean range hood and all baffle/spacer/filter/oil tunnel/oil container regularly.
*** Regular care will help preserve the appearance of the hood.
1. Use only mild soap or detergent solutions. Dry surfaces using soft cloth.
2. If hood looks splotchy (stainless steel hood), use a stainless steel cleaner to clean the surface of the hood. Avoid getting cleaning solution onto or into the control panel. Follow directions of the stainless steel cleaner. Caution: Do not leave on too long as this may cause damage to hood finish. Use soft towel to wipe off the cleaning solution, gently rub off any stubborn spots. Use dry soft towel to dry the hood.
3. DO NOT allow deposits to accumulate or remain on the hood.
4. DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface and cause rusting.
5. DO NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain in contact with stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these compounds contain chemicals, which may be harmful. Rinse with water after exposure and wipe dry with a clean lint free cloth.
:
NEVER USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS, PADS, OR CLOTHS. DO NOT USE PAPER TOWEL ON STAINLESS STEEL.
