IMPORTANT SAFETY 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 power off at service panel and lock the service 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 and standards, including fire-rated construction.

■ Do not operate any fan with a damaged cord or plug.

Discard fan or return to an authorized service facility for examination and/or repair.

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

to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

CAUTION:

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

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY

METAL DUCTWORK.

To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust

WARNING:

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP

GREASE FIRE:

■ 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.

■

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

metal tray, then turn off the burner. 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.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

IMPORTANT: The range 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 No.0-M91 (latest edition).

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

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

■ A 120-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, 15- or 20-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 range hood be provided.

■ This range hood is equipped with a power supply cord

having a 3 prong grounding plug.

■ To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be

plugged into a mating, 3 prong, grounding-type outlet, grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances. If a mating outlet is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have the properly grounded outlet installed by a qualied electrician.

■ The grounded 3 prong outlet is to be located inside the

cabinet above the range hood at a maximum distance of 337/16" (85.0 cm) from where the power cord exits the hood. The grounded 3 prong outlet must be accessible after installation of the range hood. See illustration.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

■

For a grounded, cord-connected range hood:

This range hood must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This range hood is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING: Improper grounding can result in a risk of

electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions

are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the range hood is properly grounded.

Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install an outlet near the range hood.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare Location

■ It is recommended that the vent system be installed before

the range hood is installed.

■ Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance

within the ceiling or wall for vent ttings.

■ Making the cutout to the bottom of the cabinet may be

easier to do prior to mounting the cabinet to the wall.

1. Disconnect power.

2. Determine which venting method to use: roof, wall, or

non-vented.

3. Select a at surface for assembling the range hood. Place covering over that surface.

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install range hood.

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

4. Using two or more people, lift range hood onto covered surface.

Range Hood Cabinet Cutout

1. Use a saber saw or keyhole saw to cut out the cabinet bottom inside the cabinet frame.

NOTE: Frameless type cabinets require 3/4" (19 mm) front lip in the cabinet bottom. A 3/4" (19 mm) thick ller strip (not supplied) may be required for some types of cabinets. (See Step 3 in the “Install Range Hood” section.)

Venting Outside Through the Roof

Measure and mark the lines as shown. Use a saber saw or keyhole saw to cut an opening through the top of the cabinetand the roof for the vent.

* NOTE: For 12" (30.5 cm) high cabinets, a 61/4" deep x 8" wide

(14.6 cm x 20.3 cm) rectangular opening in the cabinet top is required for damper transition clearance.

Venting Outside Through the Wall

Install the 6" (15.2 cm) vent transition to the top of the range hood liner using two 3.5 x 9.5 mm screws. Assemble the vent duct that you will use over the 6" (15.2 cm) vent transition. Measure from the bottom of the range hood liner to the horizontal centerline of the vent opening (A).

Complete Preparation

1. If not yet attached, install the 6" (15.2 cm) vent transition the top of the range hood liner using two 3.5 x 9.5 mm screws.

2. Locate side mounting bracket ush to the bottom of the cabinet side and against the inside of the front cabinet face. Orient the bracket depending on the width of your cabinet as depicted in the diagrams below. Drill 1/8" (3 mm) pilot holes in six places, attach a bracket using three 4.5 x 13 mm screws to each side of the cabinet, and tighten. Additional washers in hardware package are supplied as spacers for cabinet walls thinner than 1/2" (13 mm).
