IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLATION -
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR PERSONAL INJURY,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1) Installation and electrical wiring must be done by qualified professionals and in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.
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 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.
NOTE - This warranty is invalid without an authorized agent’s receipt or if
unit is damaged due to misuse, poor installation, improper use,
mistreatment, negligence or any other circumstances beyond the
control of KOBE RANGE HOODS authorized agents. Any repair
carried out without the supervision of KOBE RANGE HOODS
authorized agents will automatically void the warranty.
- KOBE RANGE HOODS will not be held responsible for any
damages to personal property or real estate or any bodily injuries
whether caused directly or indirectly by the range hood.
WARNING
- 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 at high heat.
- 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.
: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE
TOP GREASE FIRE:
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
– Can result in serious injury or death.
What to Do In The Event Of a Range Top Grease Fire
• SMOTHER FLAMES with a close 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.
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.

UNDER THE CABINET INSTALLATION
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. Refer to 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.
•
Important: Peel protective film off the hood, if
any.
•
Use duct tape to seal joints between pipe sections.
•
For installing under the cabinet with recessed
bottom, attach 4-inch wide wood filler strips (not
included) on each side. Refer to Figure 2.
•
Using references in TABLE 1 on page 4 and
Measurements and Diagrams on page 18, create
access opening for electrical wires and hood exhaust
under the cabinet.
Figure 1
Figure 2
Hood Installation
CAUTION: If moving the cooking range is necessary
to install the hood, turn off the power on an electric
range at the main electrical box. SHUT OFF THE GAS
BEFORE MOVING A GAS RANGE.
1. Puncture the knockout holes (for mounting under the
cabinet) on the hood as shown in Figure 3.
2. Attach ducting transition to hood exhaust with ten
(3/16” x 3/8”) screws (included). Shown in Figure 4.
3. If necessary, attach two rubber stands (included) with
adhesive tape (included) to the back corners of the
hood.
4. Draw electrical wires through cabinet access opening.
5. Center the hood beneath the cabinet and flush with the
front of the cabinet.
6. From inside of the hood, place screw (not included)
into the center of each knockout hole and secure to
cabinet bottom. Once all mounting screws are in place,
finish tightening screws until secure. CAUTION:
MAKE SURE HOOD IS SECURE BEFORE
RELEASING.
7. For safety purpose, pre-drilled mounting holes are
provided through the back of the hood. For a more
secure installation, use as many mounting holes as
needed to secure from the inside of hood (screws not
included).

Ductwork Installation
8. Use 8” round steel pipe (follow building codes in your
area) to connect the ducting transition on the hood to
the ductwork above. Use duct tape to make all joints
secure and air tight. Refer to Figure 5.
Wiring to Power Supply
SAFETY WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. THIS RANGE HOOD
MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED. MAKE SURE THIS
