WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer at the address or telephone number listed in the warranty.

2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel. Lock or tag service panel to prevent power from being switched on accidentally.

3. Installation work and electrical wiring (including switch loca-

tion) must be done by a qualied person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including re-rated

construction.

4. Provide sufcient air for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the ue (chimney) of fuel burning equip-

ment to prevent backdrafting. Follow the combustion equipment standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and local codes.

5. This product may have sharp edges. Be careful to avoid cuts and abrasions during installation and cleaning.

6. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

7. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.

8. Use only metal ductwork.

9. Do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.

10. As an alternative, this product may be installed with the ULapproved cord kit designated for the product, following instructions packed with the cord kit.

11. This unit must be grounded.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

1. Never leave greasy cooking unattended. Oil, butter, lard, etc. can ignite in a few minutes.

2. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when

cooking aming foods.

3. 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:*

1. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-tting lid, cookie sheet,

or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO

PREVENT BURNS. If the ames do not go out immediately,

EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

2. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN — You may be burned or

spread the re.

3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels

- violent steam explosion will result.

4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if: A. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you

already know how to operate it.

B. The re is small and contained in the area where it started. C. The re department is being called. D. You can ght the re with your back to an exit.

* Based on “Kitchen Fire Safety Tips” published by NFPA.

CAUTION

1. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust haz-

ardous or explosive materials and vapors.

2. For best capture of cooking impurities, range hood should be

mounted so that the top of the hood is 24”-30” [or applicable dimension depending on hood height and test height] above the cooking surface.

3. Read specication label on product for information and re-

quirements.

NOTE If hood is to be installed non-ducted:

Purchase a set of (2) non-ducted lters from your

local distributor or retailer and attach them to the

aluminum mesh lters.

Installer: Leave this manual with the homeowner.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

For performance, appearance, and health reasons, clean lter,

fan and grease-laden surfaces. Use only a clean cloth and mild detergent solution on stainless and painted surfaces. Clean all-

metal lters in the dishwasher.

The motor is permanently lubricated and never needs oiling. If

the motor bearings make excessive or unusual noise, replace the motor with the exact service motor. The impeller should also

be replaced. Use 120 V, 50 W, shielded halogen bulbs - MR16 with GU10

base. Purchase bulbs separately.

TAB

LIGHT SWITCH

This 3-position rocker switch turns lights ON and OFF and controls their intensity.

Press left side of rocker (1) to turn lights ON to low intensity. Press right side of rocker (2) to turn lights ON to high intensity. Set rocker to middle position (0) to turn lights OFF.

PREPARE HOOD LOCATION

The grease lters, bottom panel, and blower wheel should be

cleaned frequently. Use a warm detergent solution. The grease

lters and blower wheel are dishwasher safe. Note: Some minerals, when in contact with dishwasher soap

additives, may cause lters to discolor. This discoloration

is not covered by the warranty.

To remove blower wheel: Pull wheel straight down and off of

motor. When reinstalling blower wheel, make sure TAB on wheel ts

into one hole on motor.

OPERATION

Always turn the hood ON before cooking in order to establish an

air ow in the kitchen. After turning off the range, let the hood run

for a few minutes to clear the air.

Operate the hood as follows:

BLOWER SWITCH

This 3-position rocker switch turns blower ON and OFF and controls blower speed.

Press left side of rocker (1) to turn blower ON to low speed. Press right side of rocker (2) to turn blower ON to high speed. Set rocker to middle position (0) to turn blower OFF.

1 Determine whether hood will discharge vertically (3¼” x

10” or 7” Round), or horizontally (3¼” x 10” only). For ver-

tical or horizontal discharge, run ductwork between the hood location and a roof cap or wall cap. For best results, use a minimum number of transitons and elbows.

2 Use the proper diagram below, for placement of ductwork

and electrical cutout in cabinet or wall. For a non-ducted installation, DO NOT cut a duct access hole.

Note the extra wood shim and mounting screw near

the cabinet front, 2-3/8” to the right of the cabinet center line.
