SAFETY PRACTICES AND PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION:
For general ventilating use only. DO NOT use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials or vapors.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical 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.
B. Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch power off at service panel and lock service panel
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.
C. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with
all applicable codes & standards, including fire-rated construction.
D. Sufficient air is needed to maintain proper combustion and safe exhausting of gases through
the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturers guideline and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
E. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden
utilities.
F. Ducted systems must always be vented to the outdoors.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air to

SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of a range top grease fire:
A. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite. Heat oil slowly on low or medium settings.
B. Always turn hood “ON” when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette,
Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe’).
C. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
D. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface unit.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of injury to persons, in the event of a range top grease
fire, observe the following:
A. 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.
B. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - you may be burned.
C. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - a violent steam explosion may result.
DO NOT use water on a grease fire. Burning grease and water will explode.
D. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
1) You know you have a class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.
2) The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
3) The fire department is being called.
4) You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
NOTE: Unit MUST be vented to the outside of the building.
IMPOR
TANT: Refer to ducting information supplied in this Manual ( Pg. 9)

SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
This Vent Hood system is designed to remove smoke, cooking vapors and odors from the cooktop area.
WARNING:
All wall and floor openings where the vent hood is installed must be
sealed.
Consult the cooktop or range installation instructions given by the manufacturer before making any cutouts. MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION- The installation of this Hood must conform to the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280 (formerly Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD, Part 280). Three wire power supply must be used and the appliance wiring must be revised. See electrical requirements on page 1.
DO NOT use 4" laundry-type wall caps.
lexible-type ductwork is not recommended.
F
DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Be sure a fresh air supply is
available.
Failure to follow venting requirements may result in a fire.
Electrical ground is required on this Hood.
If cold water pipe is interrupted by plastic, non-metallic gaskets or other materials, DO NOT use
for grounding.
DO NOT ground to a gas pipe.
DO NOT have a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit. A fuse in the neutral or grounding
circuit could result in electrical shock.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the Hood is properly
grounded.
Failure to follow electrical requirements may result in a fire.
Be sure all the range and/or cooktop controls are turned off and the appliance is cool before
using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the appliance. The chemical that produces the
tion could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.

Service should only be done by authorized technicians. Technicians must disconnect the power
supply before servicing this appliance.
WARNING:
California Proposition 65 - The burning of gas cooking fuel generates some
b
y-products which are known by the State of California to cause cancer or
eproductive harm. California law requires businesses to warn customers of
r
tial exposure to such substances. To minimize exposure to these

BEFORE INSTALLING HOOD
. For the most efficient air flow exhaust, use a straight run or as few elbows as possible. Maximum
1
duct length is 40 feet, including elbows.
CAUTION:
Vent unit to outside of building only.
2. Two people are necessary for installation.
3. The hood is fitted with Screws and Drywall Anchors suitable for most surfaces. Consult a qualified installer.
4. Do not use flex ducting.
5. COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional backdraft damper installed to minimize the back flow of cold air and nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temper­atures as part of the ductwork. The damper should be on the cold air side (outside wall) of the thermal break.
The break should be as close as possible to where the ducting enters the heated portion of the house.
6. Local building codes may require the installation of a make-up air system. Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area.
7. Hood installation height above cooktop is the users preference. Lower installation heights will improve the efficiency of capturing cooking odors, grease, and smoke. This hood has been approved for installation heights 30” above the cooktop. Taller people may find a 30” installation height is inconvenient. DCS recommends an installation height between 30”and 36”.
8. ES30 and ES36 hood models are not recommended to be used over indoor range grills.
9. For installation over DCS Range and Cooktop models RGS-364GL or CS-364GL, the VS1236 model vent is recommended.
10. Make sure your range or cooktop is level.
TYPICAL INSTALLATION
The hood can be installed using a wall mounting system or suspended under existing cabinetry in the kitchen. Ducting can be configured for both vertical and horizontal discharge.
If an infrared kit was purchased for installation with the hood, assemble the kit to the hood prior to
tion.
installa
For wall mount instllations, duct cover kits can be purchased as spacers between hood and ceiling. Duct covers are assembled to unit after the hood is installed.

ELELCTRICAL
Install a 1/2” conduit from the service panel long enough to reach the hood once it is installed.
Branch circuit requirement is 120V, 60Hz, 15A(minimum).
INFRARED LAMP AND PANEL KIT
Optional infrared lamp and panel kit can be ordered separately and mounted into your vent hood.
Models available: IR30, IR36 and IR48. See instructions supplied with kit for assembly to your hood.
WARNING
To avoid any electrical shock the installation of the IR lamp should be done by a qualified electrician and before starting the installation of the hood.
DUCTING
Hood models: ES30, ES36, VS30, VS36 are supplied with a starting collar and backdraft damper on top of the hood for connection to 8”round duct. Models: VS1236 and VS48 are supplied with a 10”round transition with damper and is assembled as shown in Fig. 3.

1. Hood Installation Height
After the hood installation height has been determined, draw a horizontal line at a distance above the cooktop equal to the desired hood installation height plus dimension “E” (see Table on Figure 4).
This line is the mounting location of the wooden bracket shipped with the hood.
2. Find the centerline of the cooktop. Draw a vertical line along this centerline up to the horizontal line drawn in st
ep 1.
3. The hood is mounted to the wall using a wooden bracket shipped with the hood. Remove the bracket from the hood by removing two shipping screws. Mark the centerline of the bracket.
