READ & SAVE THESE INTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. For indoor use only.
2. For general ventilating only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive
materials and vapors.
3. To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, this range hood shoul not
be used with an additional solid-state speed control device.
4. To reduce the risk of shock, disconnect power before servicing.
5. To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct
air outside. Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings
or into attics, crawl spaces or garages.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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 any 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 and lock
service panel to prevent power from being switched on accidentally.
When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely
fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s)
in accordance with all applicable codes and standards - including
fire-rated construction codes and standards.
4. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of
gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent
backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guidelines
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 local
code authorities.
5. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical
wiring and other hidden utilities.
6. This unit must be grounded.
7. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
9. When applicable local regulations comprise more restrictive installation
and/or certification requirements, the aforementioned requirements
prevail on those of this document and the installer agrees to conform
to these at his own expenses.
10. When performing installation, servicing or cleaning this unit, it is
recommended to wear safety glasses and gloves.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
1. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause
smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low
or medium setting.
2. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing
food (i.e.: Crêpes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
3. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to
accumulate on fan or filter.
4. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of
the surface element.
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-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal
tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS.
If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE
FIRE DEPARTMENT.
2. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - you may be burned.
3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - a 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 fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
C. The fire department is being called.
D. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
GP AND SM6500 SERIES RANGE HOODS
PLANNING
• Mounting height MUST BE at a minimum of 22” and at a maximum of
30” above the cooking surface from the bottom edge of the range
hood.
• The hood shall be mounted to the bottom of a standard wall cabinet.
If the hood must be mounted directly to a wall, secure the hood to wall
studs.
• All wiring must comply with local codes and the unit must be properly
grounded. Connection should be made to a 110-120 VAC lighting
circuit (15A) in the circuit breaker or fuse box.
• This range hood is “Convertible”, it may be installed as a ducted or
as a non-ducted unit.
IF THE RANGE HOOD IS TO BE DUCTED:
• Ductwork can be installed vertically or horizontally.
• Duct runs should be as short as possible.
• Avoid the use of elbows.
• Use metal duct tape at all joints.
• Do not use duct smaller than the discharge on the hood.
NON DUCTED:
• Disregard instructions for knockout.
• Discard the transition, it will not be used.
PREPARATION
1. Use the dimensional drawing to lay out the range hood’s mounting
holes, wiring access and ductwork.
2. Make cut-outs for wiring and ductwork.
3. If the hood is to be ducted, install the ductwork so that it is flush to the
range hood’s mounting surface.
• Refer to Figure 1 if the range hood is to be installed with a horizontal
discharge.
• Refer to Figure 2 if the range hood is to be installed with a vertical
discharge.
4. Remove the necessary duct opening and wiring knockout from the
range hood.
NOTE: If the range hood is to be installed as a ducted unit install
baffle (refer to Figure 4) by sliding into place behind grille.
Use locator bumps to orient in grille.
NOTE: If the range hood is to be installed as a ductless unit, do
not remove any knockouts.
5. Run two-conductor wires (with ground) from a power source to the
hood location. Bring approximately 12” of wiring through wiring hole in
cabinet.
6. Drill four 3/32” diameter pilot holes at points where mounting holes are
marked in the filler strips or cabinet bottom.
7. Insert four (4) mounting screw (not supplied), leaving approximately
1/4” of thread exposed. Use no. 8 or no. 10 round head screws.
INSTALLATION
1. Refer to Figure 6 for a vertical discharge installation.
Secure the 3¼” x 10” transition (if used) to top of hood.
Refer to Figure 7 for a horizontal discharge installation.
If using the supplied 3¼” x 10” duct transition, remove the damper from
the transition to prevent possible venting interference. Position transition
into wall cutout (the transition does not fasten to the hood).
Refer to Figure 5 for 7” round discharge installation.
Secure 7” round adaptor to top of hood using screws provided.
2. Feed the wiring through the access hole and into the electrical box.
3. Align hood’s keyhole mounting slots over the four (4) partially installed
screws.
4. Making sure the duct position over the hood’s duct transition (or adaptor),
push the hood against the rear wall. Secure hood by tightening screws.
5. Using a long blade screwdriver, reach into the discharge opening and
make sure the damper operates freely.
WIRING CONNECTIONS
All wiring connections must comply with local code and the unit must be
properly grounded.
1. Make sure box connector is secure.
2. Refer to Figure 8. Make wiring connections.
3. Replace electrical box cover and secure with screw.
