IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC

SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

■ Use this unit only in the manner intended by the

manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer.

■ Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch the power off at

the 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.

■ Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by

qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes & standards, including fire-rated construction.

■ 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 equipment manufacturer's 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.

■ When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling; do not damage

electrical wiring and other utilities.

■ Ducted systems must always be vented outdoors. CAUTION: For general ventilating use only. Do not use

to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

CAUTION: To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust

air, be sure to duct air outside - do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls ceilings, attics, crawl spaces, or garages.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY

METAL DUCTWORK.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP

GREASE FIRE:

■ Never leave the surface units unattended at high settings.

Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

■ Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when

flameing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

■ Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be

allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.

■ Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for

the size of the surface element.

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 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 dishcloths or towels -

a violent steam explosion will result.

■ Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

– You know you have a class ABC extinguisher, and you

already know how to operate it.

– The fire is small and contained in the area where it

started.

– The fire department is being called.

– You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

Based on "Kitchen Fire Safety Tips" published by NFPA.

■ WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock,

do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.

Product dimensions

Location Requirements

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances. Canopy hood location should be away from strong draft areas,

such as windows, doors and strong heating vents. Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used. Given

dimensions provide minimum clearance. Grounded electrical outlet is required. See “Electrical

Requirements” section. The canopy hood is factory set for venting through the roof or

wall. For non-vented (recirculating) installations see “Non-vented (recirculating) installations” in “Prepare Location” section.

All openings in ceiling and wall where canopy hood will be installed must be sealed.

Venting Requirements

Vent system must terminate to the outside. Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed

area. Do not use 4" (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps. Use metal vent only. Rigid metal vent is recommended. Do not

use plastic or metal foil vent.

For the most efficient and quiet operation:

■ Use a straight run or as few elbows as possible.

■ Use no more than three 90° elbows.

■ Make sure there is a minimum of 24" (61 cm) of straight vent

between the elbows if more than one elbow is used.

■ Do not install two elbows together.

■ Use duct tape to seal all joints in the vent system.

■ Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around

the cap.

Cold weather installations

An additional backdraft damper should be installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the vent system. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break.

The break should be as close as possible to where the vent system enters the heated portion of the house.

Make-up air

Local building codes may require the use of make-up air systems when using ventilation systems greater than specified CFM of air movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area.

Venting methods

This canopy hood is factory set for venting through the roof or wall.

An 8" (20.3 cm) round vent system is needed for installation (not included). The hood exhaust opening is 8" (20.3 cm) round.

Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent through a wall, a 90° elbow is needed.

Rear discharge

A 90° elbow may be installed immediately above the hood.

For non-vented (recirculating) installations

Should it not be possible to vent cooking fumes and vapors to the outside, the hood can be used in the non-vented (recirculating) version, fitting an activated carbon filter and the deflector, fumes and vapors are recycled through the top grille.

Calculating Vent System Length

To calculate the length of the system you need, add the equivalent feet (meters) for each vent piece used in the system.

Maximum equivalent vent length is 50 feet (15.2 meters).

2. Select a flat surface for assembling the unit. Cover that

surface with a protective covering.

3. Determine and mark the centerline on the wall where the

canopy hood will be installed.

4. Select a mounting height, minimum 30" (76.2 cm), above the

cooking surface and mark reference line on the wall.

5. Tape template in place, aligning the template centerline and

bottom of template with hood bottom line and with the centerline marked on the wall.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare Location

■ Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be constructed.

■ Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.

■ Hood installation height above cooktop is the user's preference. The lower the hood above the cooktop, the more efficient the capturing of cooking odors, grease and smoke.

■ Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum before you select your hood.

1. If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in range from cabinet opening to provide easier access to rear wall. Otherwise put a thick, protective covering over countertop, cooktop or range to protect from damage or dirt.

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install range.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

Electrical Requirements

IMPORTANT: The hood must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, latest edition, or Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrical installer determine that the ground path is adequate.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

National Fire Protection Association

One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269

CSA International

8501 East Pleasant Valley Road

Cleveland, Ohio 44131-5575

■ A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-amp, fused electrical circuit is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is also recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this hood be provided.

■ Do not ground to a gas pipe.

■ Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure range

hood is properly grounded.

■ Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.

■ The range hood must be connected with copper wire only.

■ The range hood should be connected directly to the fused

disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through flexible armored cable or flexible metallic conduit.

■ Wire sizes must conform to the requirements of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, latest edition, or CSA Standard C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. 0-M91, latest edition, and all local codes and ordinances.
