READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
ENGLISH
Warning and Important Safety Instruction
CAUTION
For general ventilating use only. DO NOT use to
exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and
vapors.
CAUTION
Unplug power cords from control panel before
cleaning or servicing hood.
(cont.)
CAUTION
If the power to the hood is not disconnected
during cleaning, the heat sensor thermostat can
cause the blower to turn on.
Before Using the Hood
• Although the hood is cleaned upon completion of the manufacturing process, you will probably need to
clean your hood again after installation. Wipe the surface of the hood with a good household cleaner
applied with a soft cloth, or stainless steel polish, depending on the finish of your hood. This will leave a
protective finish on the hood.
Features
Heat Sensor Thermostat
Your hood is equipped with a heat sensor thermostat. The thermostat will turn on or speed up the blower if it
senses excessive heat above the cooking surface.
If the blower is OFF—the sensor turns the blower on to HIGH speed. If the blower is on at a lower speed
setting—the sensor turns the blower up to HIGH speed. When the temperature level drops to normal, the
blower will return to its original setting.

Cleaning and Maintenance
CAUTION
Unplug power cords from control panel before
cleaning or servicing hood.
Any piece of equipment works better and lasts
longer when maintained properly and kept clean.
Ventilation equipment is no exception. Your hood
must be kept clean and maintained properly.
MAINTENANCE
ENGLISH
Cleaning Mesh Filters
As air passes through the filter, grease particles
collect on the stainless steel screen inside the filter.
The filters should be examined periodically to assure
that all surfaces and parts are clean. The filters can
be washed in a dishwasher or in a sink with hot,
soapy water. Simple periodic cleaning will ensure
maximum effectiveness. Do not use caustic detergent
to clean the filters. An abrasive or corrosive cleaner
may damage the finish. Do not take the filters apart to
clean them. It is not necessary and will void the filter
warranty.
CAUTION
For general ventilating use only. DO NOT use to
exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

MAINTENANCE
Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning Hood Canopy
Finishes in stainless steel are highly resistant to
damage or discoloration due to grease, steam, and
heat— provided that reasonable care is given to the
equipment. The following suggestions will help keep
your hood looking new.
1. Do not allow an excessive accumulation of grease.
For best results, you should wipe your hood clean
with a cloth dipped in warm, soapy water. DO NOT
USE ABRASIVE CLEANSERS, STEEL WOOL
PADS, OR ABRASIVE CLOTHS. DO NOT use
cleansers that contain chlorides; the chlorides in
the cleaner could damage the stainless steel finish.
If you need to scrape stainless steel to remove
encrusted materials, first soak the area with hot
towels to loosen the material, then use a wooden
or nylon spatula or scraper. DO NOT use a metal
knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape
stainless steel.
2. Every 3 months give your hood a thorough
cleaning. On stainless steel surfaces, use a good
stainless steel cleaner and polish.
(cont.)
Replacing the Light Bulbs
When removing bulbs use an oven mitt to protect
your hand in case the bulb breaks.
Halogen Lights
1. Unscrew halogen bulb.
2. Replace the bulb with a 120 volt, 50-watt halogen
bulb.
Renewing Stainless Steel Finish
Regular cleaning is the best way to assure that your
stainless steel finish stays bright and unscratched.
Use lemon oil or stainless steel polish to coat and
protect stainless steel.
