Ductless recirculation is intended for applications where an exhaust duct work is not possible to be installed. When converted, the hood functions as a recirculating hood rather than an exhaust hood. Fumes and exhaust from cooking are drawn and fi ltered by a set of optional charcoal fi lters. The air is then purifi ed and re­circulated back within the home.
We recommend to ALWAYS exhaust air outside of the home by employing existing or installing new duct work, if possible. The hood is most effective and effi cient as an exhaust hood. Only when the exhaust option is not possible should you recourse to converting the hood into a recirculating hood.
When converted to be a recirculating hood, a set of charcoal fi lters are required on top of its standard mesh fi lter set. Order according to its part number below. The standard mesh fi lters are intended to capture residue from cooking and the optional charcoal fi lters help to purify fumes exhausted from cooking for recirculation.
RECIRCULATING KIT (REQUIRED IF NO DUCTING IS USED)
Kit includes charcoal fi lters, brackets and air diverter plate.

1. Purchase recirculating kit per the part number above
2. Secure air diverter plate to top support frame (FIG. H) Open sides of air diverter plate should face left and right to direct air through the louver holes located on the top duct cover. Run 6” ducting from top of hood and secure to air diverter plate.
3. Remove aluminum mesh fi lters from hood. Secure charcoal fi lter brackets to the hood body behind each mesh fi lter using the screws included with the recirculating kit. Clip charcoal fi lters onto each charcoal fi lter bracket. (FIG. J)
4. Re-Install mesh fi lters.
Charcoal fi lters must be replaced after every 120 hours of use (or
approximately every 3 to 4 months based on an average of 1 - 2 hrs. of daily cooking time).
NOTE: For more details refer to manual included with recirculating kit.

SURFACE MAINTENANCE:
Clean periodically with hot soapy water and clean cotton cloth. Do not use corrosive or abrasive detergent or steel wool/scouring pads which will scratch and damage surface.
For heavier soil use liquid degreaser.
After cleaning it is recommended that you use non-abrasive stainless steel polish/cleaners, to polish and buff out the stainless luster and grain. Always scrub lightly, with clean cotton cloth, and with the grain.
Do not use any product containing chlorine bleach. Do not use “orange” cleaners.
Aluminum Mesh Filters
The aluminum mesh fi lters installed by the factory are intended to fi lter out residue and grease from cooking. They need not be replaced on a regular basis but are required to be kept clean.
Remove and clean by hand or in dishwasher on low heat. Spray degreasing detergent and leave to soak if heavily soiled.
Dry fi lters and re-install before using hood.
