Important Safety Instructions
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Before you Begin
INSTALLER: Please leave this guide with this unit for the
owner.
OWNER: Please retain this guide for future reference.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons, observe the following:
a) Use this unit only in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have questions, contact
the manufacturer (800-735-4328).
b) Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch
power off at service panel and lock service
panel. This will prevent power from being
switched on accidentally. When the service
panel cannot be locked, securely fasten a
prominent warning device, such as a tag to the
service panel.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of injury to persons, in the event of a
range top grease fire, observe the following:
• Smother flames with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet,
or other metal tray, then turn off the gas burner or
the electric element. Be careful to prevent burns. If
the flames do not go out immediately, evacuate and
call the fire department.
• Never pick up a flaming pan. You may be burned.
• Do not use water, including wet dish cloths or
towels, to extinguish flames – a violent steam
explosion will result.
• 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.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of a grease fire:
a) 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.
b) Always turn hood ON when cooking at high
heat or when flambéing food (i.e. Crepes
Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef
Flambe).
c) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the surface element
or gas burner.
English 2
WARNING:
For general ventilating use only. To avoid a fire or
explosion hazard, do not use to exhaust hazardous or
explosive materials or vapor.
Always have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.
Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available, nearby,
highly visible and easily accessible near the cooking
appliance.
Do not use water on grease fires. Smother fire or flame or
use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire, drop
and roll immediately to extinguish flames.
Important Safety Instructions
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Whenever possible, do not operate the ventilation system
during a cooktop fire. However, do not reach through fire to
turn it off.
CAUTION:
Grease left on filters can re-melt and move into the vent.
Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be
allowed to accumulate on fan, filters or exhaust ducts.

is the legal responsibility of the parents or legal guardians
to ensure that they are instructed in safe practices by

alone or unattended in the area where the appliance is in
use. They should never be allowed to play in its vicinity,
whether or not the appliance is in use.

from power and allow to cool before
servicing.

Operation
Operating the Hood
For the best results, the blower should be turned on for
about 5 minutes before cooking in order to establish air
currents upward through the hood. Thus when heat,
smoke, moisture, grease and cooking odors are produced,
they will be carried outside instead of drifting into other
rooms. Use the low speeds for normal use and the higher
speed for strong odors or fumes.
Drafts across the range or cooktop will reduce the
effectiveness of the hood. Such drafts should be prevented
when possible.
The best job of ventilation in the kitchen is done where the
only air currents are those created by the blower itself.
Hood Control Buttons
Custom Insert Control Panel
Off
Pressing the button once turns the blower off and resets
the control.
Fan Speed
Pressing the button once, from an “off” state, turns the
blower on low. Each successive press of the button
increases the fan speed until HIGH speed is reached, then
the fan cycles back to the low speed.
The LEDs above this button indicate the current fan speed.
When the fan is on, the corresponding LED is illuminated.
1 — LOW
2 — MED
3 — HIGH
Auto (custom insert control panel only)
When in Auto mode, the hood automatically turns the
blower on, depending on the amount of heat the control
senses. It automatically adjusts every 5 minutes. If the
control does not sense a high level of heat, it will turn the
blower off.
Figure 2: Custom Insert Control Panel
Remote Control Panel (optional)
The optional wall-mounted remote control panel provides
light and blower control from a more accessible location.
Refer to the Remote Control Installation Instruction for
detailed instructions.
Auto feature is disabled if a remote control is installed.
Clean Filter Reminder
After 40 hours of operation, the clean filter reminder LED
above this button will illuminate indicating that the filters
need to be cleaned. When this indicator illuminates, clean
the filters as instructed on page 6. After cleaning, press this
button for 3 seconds to reset the 40-hour period and turn
the LED off.
Delay (shut off)
If the blower is off when the Delay button is pressed, the
blower will turn on to the HIGH speed setting for 10
minutes. At the end of the cycle the blower will turn off.
If the blower is on when the Delay button is pressed, the
blower runs for 10 minutes at the current speed then turns
off.
During the 10 minute timed period, the LED above the
Delay button is illuminated.
English 4
To interrupt a timed period, press Fan Speed or OFF
button.
Figure 3: Remote Control Panel
Lights
This button controls the halogen lighting. The first press
turns the lights on. A second press dims the lights. A third
press turns the lights off.
1 — ON
2 — DIM
3 — OFF
Heat Sensor (custom insert control panel only)
Heat sensor feature is disabled if a remote control is
installed.
Over-temperature Condition
The high temperature sensor protects the hood from high
temperatures which may damage components. The control
is set to activate at 161 °F (72 °C) and reset at 140 °F
(60 °C). When activated, the blower will turn on low and the
corresponding LED will blink, indicating an overtemperature condition.
While the high temperature sensor is activated, the blower
speed can be changed or turned off. If the blower is turned
off, the corresponding LED will blink. Light controls will
remain operational. When the control sensor reaches
140°F (60°C), a reset will occur. During reset, the control
will revert back to the operational state prior to the high
temperature condition.
High Temperature Fault Condition
The circuit is equipped with an alarm indicating that the
heat sensor protection is not working due to a damaged
sensor. In the case of this extreme condition, the three fan
speed indicator LEDs will start blinking. All the controls will
be operational except for the speed indicators.
