agents or detergents. Suitable for use in household cooking area.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
a. 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.
b. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when fl aming food
Important Safety Notice
c. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or fi lter.
d. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.
e. Keep fan, fi lters and grease laden surfaces clean.
f. Use high setting on hood only when necessary.
g. Don’t leave hood unattended when cooking.
h. Always use cookware and utensils appropriate for the type of and amount of food being prepared.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fi tting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS.
If the fl ames 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 will result.

2. The fi re is small and contained in the area where it started.
3. The fi re department is being called.
4. You can fi ght the fi re with your back to an exit
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualifi ed person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards.
Including fi re-rated construction.
b. Suffi cient air is needed for power combustion and exhausting of gases through the fl ue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent
back-drafting. 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.
c. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
d. Ducted fans must always vent to the outdoors.
e. NEVER place a switch where it can be reached from a tub or shower.
f. Make sure the power is off before installing, wiring or maintenancing.

Minimum mounting height between range top to
hood bottom should be no less than 24”.
Maximum mounting height should be no higher
than 32”.
It is important to install the hood at the proper
mounting height. Hoods mounted too low could
result in heat damage and fi re hazard; while hoods
mounted too high will be hard to reach and will
lose its performance and effi ciency.
Min 24” - Max 32"
36"
If available, also refer range manufacturer’s height
clearance requirements and recommended hood
mounting height above range.
Vertical Ducting:
7” round minimum or
3-1/4” x 10” rectangular minimum
Horizontal Ducting:
3-1/4”x10” rectangular minimum
DUCTING
A minimum of 7” round or 3-1/4” x 10” rectangular
duct must be used to maintain maximum air fl ow
effi ciency.
Always use rigid type metal ducts only. Flexible
ducts could restrict air fl ow by up to 50%.
Installation – Mounting Height & Clearance
Also use calculation (on page 5) to compute total
available duct run when using elbows, transitions
and caps.
ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or
transitions and turns. If long duct run is required,
increase duct size from 7” to 8”.
If turns or transitions are required; install as far
away from hood duct output and as far apart,
between the two as possible.
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 other
than the customer), repair of replacement must
be made by arrangement between customer
and installer.

WARNING FIRE HAZARD
NEVER exhaust air or terminate duct work into spaces between walls, crawl spaces, ceiling, attics or garages.
All exhaust must be ducted to the outside.
Use metal ductwork only.
Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints with certifi ed Silver Tape or Duct Tape.

detergent, or steel wool/scouring pads which will scratch and damage surface. Do not use products containing
chlorine bleach or orange cleaners.
For heavier soil use liquid degreaser.
After cleaning, you may use non-abrasive stainless steel polish/ cleaners, to polish and buff out the stainless
luster and grain. Always scrub lightly using a micro fi ber or clean cotton cloth and with grain.
Aluminum Mesh or Baffl e Filters
The aluminum mesh or baffl e filters are intended to trap residue and grease from cooking. Although the fi lters
should never need replacing, they are required to be cleaned every 30 days or more often depending on cooking
habits.
Filters may be placed in dishwasher at low heat or soaked in hot soapy water Dry fi lters and re-install before
using hood.
Removing Mesh (Fig 4) & Baffl e Filters (Fig 5)
