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, into attics, crawl spaces or garages.
CAUTION
For general venting use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors..
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a. The installation in this manual is intended for qualified installers, service technicians or persons with similar qualified
background. DO NOT attempt to install this appliance yourself. Injury could result from installing the unit due to lack of

c. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at circuit breaker.
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
Important safety Notice
oils slowly on low or medium settings. The risk of self combustion is higher if the oil has been used several times.
b. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when cooking flaming foods.
c. Clean ventilating fans and filters frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter. Old and worn filters
should be replaced immediately. Do not operate blowers when filters are removed, Never parts to clean without proper
instructions. Disassembly is recommended to be performed by a qualified personnel only. Refer to the cleaning instructions
or call our service center for any questions.
d. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.
WARNING

Minimum mount height between range top to hood bottom should be no less than 22".
Maximum mount height should be no higher than 30".
It is important to install the hood at the proper mounting
height. Hoods mounted too low could result in heat
damage and fire hazard; while hoods mounted too high
will be hard to reach and will loose its performance and
efficiency.
If available, also refer to range manufacturer's height
clearance requirements and recommended hood
mounting height above range. Always check your local
codes for any differences.

DUCTING
A minimum 3-1/4 x 10"rectangular duct
must be used to maintain maximum air
flow efficiency.
Always use rigid type metal ducts only.
Flexible ducts could restrict air flow by up
to 50%.
Use calculation worksheet to compute total
duct work.
ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number
or transitions and turns. If a reducer is used,
install a long reducer instead of a pancake
reducer. Reduce duct size as far away from
opening as possible.
If turns or transitions are required:
Install as far away from opening and as far
apart, between 2, as possible.
Minimum Duct Size:
Rectangular- 3-1/4 x 10” minimum
(rear or top)
DAMAGE-SHIPMENT / INSTALLATION:
• Please fully inspect unit for damage
before installation.
If the unit is damaged in shipment, return
•
the unit to the store in which it was bought
for repair or replacement.
If the unit is damaged by the customer,
•
repair or replacement is the responsibility
of the customer.
If the unit is damaged by the installer (if
•

Installation - Mounting the Hood
2. Attach house electrical wiring to
hood wiring. Make sure the power source
is turned off before working with any
electrical wiring.
4. Attach duct work. Use aluminum duct
tape to make joints secure and air tight.
NOTE: This step is not necessary if hood is
in air recirculation mode.
3. Hang hood from mounting screws
provided. Slide hood toward wall until
mounting screws are engaged in narrow
end of keyholes. Tighten mounting screws
securely. CAUTION: Do not push on safety
grill when installing, this may result in

Aluminum Mesh Filters:
Clean frequently using hot water and a mild, non abrasive detergent. Filters are dishwasher safe.
Carbon Filters:
Clean carbon filters holder frequently with a damp cloth and mild detergent. DO NOT immerse carbon filter in water or put in
dishwasher. The carbon filters should be replaced every 4 to 6 months under normal use.
Hood Surface:
Remove filters. Use a damp cloth and a mild detergent to wipe all residue-laden surfaces. Use care when cleaning fan blades,
it must not become bent or misaligned. DO NOT ALLOWWATER TO ENTER MOTOR. Make sure all surfaces are completely
dry before re-installing filters and using hood.
Replacing Light Bulbs:
CAUTION: Light bulbs become extremely hot when turned on. DO NOT touch bulbs until switched off and cooled.
Touching hot bulbs may cause serious burns.
Hood comes with (2) R16 40W incandescent bulbs. You may also use (2) PAR20 35W or 50W halogen light bulbs.
(purchased separately)
Remove bulb by unscrewing counter-clockwise. Use a suction cup or rubber/latex glove to grip the bulb if removing bulb
is difficult.
Maintenance - Cleaning and Replacing Light Bulbs
12
1. Upon completion of installation
nothing works.
Check if unit has been plugged in, make sure that all power has been
turned back on and all electrical wiring are properly connected.
2. Light is on but blowers are not
turning at all or seems to be
scraping on something.
3. When blowers are on,
something seems to be loose
and spinning around inside.
4. Vibration when blowers are on
5. Blowers noise
6. Light is not working
7. Blowers seemed weak
Blower blade unit might have been mounted too low and scraping
the bottom or jammed. Loosen hex screw on blade unit and adjust to
proper height.
There might have been foreign particles left within the discharge
opening or rocks, leaves, branches, etc. that might have fell in from
old duct work. Disconnect duct work to inspect and remove any
foreign particles.
Unit might not have been secured properly on cabinet. Or cabinet
might need to be further secured into studs on wall.
Our blowers are designed to perform up to 850 cfm. A properly
functioning motor itself should be relatively quiet. Nevertheless, due
to vacuum created by the suction, noise level up to 6 sones will be
generated when both blower unit is turned on at its maximum speed.
Employing low speeds will suffice moderate cooking such as steaming, broiling etc.
Light bulb might need to be replaced. On some instances, the fragile
bulb could have been damaged during the shipping process.
Replace light bulb.
Check duct size used, duct size should be at least 3 1/4” x 10”.
Range hood WILL NOT function properly with the insufficient
duct size.
Check if duct is clogged or if dumper unit is not opening properly. A
tight mesh on a side wall cap unit might also cause restriction to the
air flow.
Use a damper type sidewall cap.
Reduce the number of elbows and length of duct work or increase
duct size.
Check if all joints are properly connected, sealed and taped.
Trouble Shooting
8. Cooking fumes and smoke
dissipates before it reaches
the blower.
Check if unit is installed at the recommended height. The range hood
should also be able to cover the entire cooking area from left to right
and most areas from rear to front.
Open doors and windows might also distract air flow before it reaches the blowers.
Make sure blowers are on high speed for heavy cooking.
