IMPORTANTSAFETYINSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
FORDOMESTICCOOKINGONLY
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 Sharp at
the address or telephone number listed on page 2 of this
manual.
2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at
service panel and lock the service disconnecting means
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
a 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 eqmpment manufacturer s =mdehne and safety
standards such as those published by the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA), and the American
Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
5. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not
damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
6. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this
range hood with an additional speed control device.
7. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
9. Use with approved cord-connection kit only.
10. This unit must be grounded.
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 settings.
2. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when
cooking flaming foods.
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.
• ' o " "

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.
* Based on "Kitchen Fire Safety Tips" published by NFPA.
I ,_.-7.,lqtJ[.l ,'I
1. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust
hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
2. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or
unbalanced impellers, keep drywall spray, construction
dust, etc. off power unit.
3. For best capture of cooking impurities, your range hood
should be mounted so that the top of the hood is 24-30"
above the cooking surface.
4. Please read specification label on product for further
information and requirements.
Halogen or incandescent bulbs may be hot!

I Determine whether hood will discharge vertically (3 1/4"
x 10" or 7" round), horizontally (3 1/4" x 10" only) or
be non-ducted. For vertical or horizontal discharge, run
ductwork between the hood location and a roof cap or wall
cap. For best results, use a minilnUln nulnber of transitions
and elbows.

HEAT SENSOR
Your Sharp Insight Range Hood is equipped with an advanced
Heat Sensor.
The Sensor monitors the temperature and automatically
adjusts the fan to the appropriate setting.
• If the fan is on, the Sensor will increase the fan setting
when the temperature is elevated. If the temperature
continues to rise, the Sensor will continue to increase the
fan setting until the temperature is stabilized or reduced.
The flashing light above the fan button shows the Sensor
fan setting. Once the temperature has been reduced, the
Sensor will change the fan to the original setting.
• If the fan is off, the Sensor will automatically turn the
fan on at its highest speed when the temperature is above
normal. When this occurs, the light above fan button 4 will
flash on and ofl: After the temperature has been reduced
to normal, the fan will change to the setting prior to the
Sensor coming on.
FUSE
The hood control contains a fuse to protect it from power
surges. If the fuse has opened (blown), the green fan-level
indicators will operate properly when the fan buttons/switches
are pressed, but the fan and lights will not turn on.
The fuse is a 5 x 20mm, 10 Amp, Fast-Acting, 125V (min.).
Common manufacturer and part nulnbers are: Littlefuse,
217010; Bussmann, GMA10A; Wickmann, 1942100. Radio
Shack, Digikey (1-800-344-4539), and most electronic supply
stores have them in stock.
To replace the fuse:
1. Disconnect power at service entrance.
2. Remove filters, bottom panel, light wire harness and air
chute.
3. Remove and inspect fuse. If it is not open (blown),
additional diagnostics need to be done.
4. Install new fuse.
5. Re-assemble air chute, light wire harness, bottom panel
and filters.
6. Turn on power and check hood/control operation.

CLEANING
To reduce the risk of electric shock, discon-
nect from power supply before cleaning.
Aluminum mesh filters: Clean frequently using hot
water and a mild detergent. Filters are dishwasher safe.
Charcoal filters (additional filters for non-
ducted installations): Clean filter surfaces frequently
with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. DO NOT immerse
filters in water or put in dishwasher. The special "Clean
Sense" feature indicates when the filter is to be replaced.
The blue and yellow stripes will blend to green when it is
time to change the filter. The "Clean Sense" feature works
best when facing toward the cooking surface.
To clean hood: Remove filters. Use a damp cloth and
a mild detergent to wipe all grease-laden surfaces. Do not
use abrasive cloth, steel wool pads or scouring powder on
the Teflon<coated bottom cover or on any painted surface.
Use care when cleaning blower wheel - it must not become
bent or misaligned. DO NOT ALLOW WATER TO ENTER
MOTOR. Make sure all surfaces are completely dry before
re-iustalling filters and restoring power. Motor is permanently
lubricated. Do not oil or disassemble motor.
