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 hood must be vented to the outside.
a) Before servicing or cleaning unit, SWITCH POWER OFF AT SERVICE PANEL.
b) Clean fan, filter, if any, and grease laden surfaces frequently. To reduce the risk
of fire and properly disperse air, 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 – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY IN THE EVENT OF A
RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
• Keep fan, filter, if any, and grease-laden surfaces clean.
• Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat.
• Use high settings on cooking range ONLY when necessary. Heat the oil slowly on low to
medium setting.
• 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 fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.

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) of fuel burning equipment to
prevent back drafting.
3) Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as those
4) published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for
5) Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and code authorities.
6) Two installers are recommended because of the large size and weight of this hood.
7) Activating any switch may cause ignition or an explosion.
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.

SAFETY WARNING

Preparations 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 venting 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.
- Use duct tape to seal the joints between pipe sections.
- If necessary, prepare back wall frame with cross framing lumber for secure installation.
Using references in Table 1 and measurements on page 15, decide the level of the
lumber. Refer to Figure 2.
- Important: peel protective film off the duct cover and the hood (if any).
