OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS –
HOOD
The blower should be turned on for a few minutes
before cooking in order to establish air currents upward through the hood. Thus when heat, smoke, moisture, grease and cooking odors are pr oduced, they will
be carried outside instead of drifting into other rooms.
Drafts across the range or cooktop will cause the escape of heat, smok e, moisture, grease and cooking odors
from the hood. Such drafts should be prevented in so
far as possible.
The best job of ventilation in the kitchen is done where
the only air currents are those created by the blower
itself.
VENTILATOR

The ventilator motor is operated by a variable speed
control switch. You may var y the speed of the motor
depending on the amount of grease and smoke you
are creating while cooking.
