WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions,
contact the manufacturer at the address or telephone number listed in the warranty.
2. Before servicing or cleaning 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.
3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by a qualified person(s) in
accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction
codes and standards.
4. 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), and the American Society for Heating,
Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
5. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other
hidden utilities.
6. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
7. Do not use this range hood with an additional speed control device.
8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
9. Use with approved cord-connection kit only.
10. This unit must be grounded.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
1. 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.
2. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when cooking flaming foods.
3. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan
or filter.
4. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface
element.

PLANNING DUCTWORK INSTALLATION
(This section for UXT2030AA, UXT2036AA, UXT3030AA, and
UXT3036AA hoods only. UXT4030AA and UXT4036AA hoods
skip this section and go on to "Prepare the Hood".)
Begin planning ductwork by deciding where duct will run between
the range hood and the outside. For best performance, use the
shortest possible duct run and a minimum numaber of elbows.
There are several choices shown - FIGS. A - F below.
FIG. A
Ducting directly through the wall (for range hoods mounted on an
exterior wall). Shown are two ways to duct through an outside wall.
If a wall cap is used directly off the back of the hood, special care
must be taken to make sure that the damper in the damper/duct
connector on the hood damper in the wall cap do not interfere with
each other when the hood is operating. This could result in either
inadequate air delivery or backdrafts. If this condition does exist,
remove the hood damper flap. Sometimes when using a wall cap it
is easier to duct vertically and then use an elbow as shown FIG. B.
In more complex ducting situations, a 3-1/4" x 10" rectangular
ducting range hood (UXT3030AA and UXT3036AA hoods) can be
converted to a round duct by means of a transition.
FIG. C. Straight up through the roof using 7" round duct (for single story installations - UXT2030AA and UTX2036AA
only)
FIG. D. Ducting straight up through the
roof using 3¼" x 10" rectangular duct. (For
single story installations UXT3030AA and
UXT3036AA hoods only.)
PREPARE THE HOOD
1. Unpack hood and check contents. You should receive:
1 - Aluminum Filter (UXT3030AA, UXT3036AA, UXT2030AA
and UXT2036AA hoods only)
1 - 3¼" x 10" Damper/Duct Connector (mounted inside of
hood for shipping only) ((UXT3030AA and UXT3036AA
hoods only)
1 - Ductfree Filter (UXT4030AA and UXT4036AA hoods only)
2. Remove wiring box cover. Under cover find:
1 - Plastic Bag containing loose mounting hardware
FIG. E. Ducting between the ceiling joists
(for multi-story installations) or through the
soffit space above the cabinets (where the
soffit connects to an outside wall).

bottom.
1. (For installation on recessed bottom cabinets only)
Attach a wood filler strip at each side of recessed are under
cabinet. Use two 1" x 2" strips cut to length. If recess is deeper
than 1" use thicker strips. Attach strips with 1-1/4'' wood screws,
