Safety and Cautions  
Take care when using cleaning agents or  
detergents.  
• Avoid using food products that produce flames  
under the range hood.  
1 – Installation Instructions  
6” adapter  
• Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease  
should not be allowed to accumulate on  
fan or filter.  
24” to 30” above  
cooking surface  
• Use proper pan size. ALWAYS use  
cookware appropriate for the size of the  
surface element.  
• For general ventilating use only. DO NOT use  
to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials  
and vapors.  
1. Decide where the ductwork will run between  
the hood and the outside.  
2. A straight, short duct run will allow the hood to  
perform most efficiently.  
3. Long duct runs, elbows, and transitions will  
reduce the performance of the hood. Use as  
few of them as possible. Larger ducting may  
be required for best performance with longer  
duct runs.  
4. Install a roof or wall cap. Connect round metal  
ductwork to cap and work back towards hood  
location. Use duct tape to seal the joints  
between ductwork sections.

To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy  
and/or unbalanced impellers, keep drywall  
spray, construction dust, etc. off power unit.  
Your hood motor has a thermal overload which  
will automatically shut off the motor if it  
becomes overheated. The motor will restart  
when it cools down. If motor continues to shut  
off and restart, have the hood serviced.  
• For best capture of cooking impurities, the  
bottom of the hood should be a minimum of  
24” and a maximum of 30” above the cooking  
surface.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons in the  
event of a range topgrease fire, observe the  
following:*  
9.5 mm pan head)  
• 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 – violent steam explosion will result.  
• Use an extinguisher ONLY if:  
o You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher  
and you already know how to operate it.  
o The fire is small and contained in the area  
where it started.  
o The fire department is being called.  
o You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

This appliance 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 appliance 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.

The blower switch turns the blower on and off.  
Push the switch once to turn the blower ON  
(turns on to last speed selected). Pushing the  
switch sequentially selects blower speeds from 1  
to 4. To turn the blower OFF, push and hold the  
blower switch for approximately 2 seconds.  
• Hot water with soap or detergent is all that is  
usually needed.  
• Follow all cleaning by rinsing with clear water.  
Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth to avoid water  
marks.  
• For discolorations or deposits that persist,  
use a non-scratching household cleanser or  
stainless steel polishing powder with a little  
water and a soft cloth.  
• For stubborn cases, use a plastic scouring pad  
or soft bristle brush together with cleaser and  
water. Rub lightly in direction of polishing lines  
or "grain" of the stainless finish. Avoid using  
too much pressure which may mar the surface.  
DO NOT allow deposits to remain for long  
periods of time.

switch  
The reset switch resets the grease filter or charcoal  
filter alarm. When the center segment blinks, the  
grease filter needs to be cleaned and, if applicable,  
the charcoal filter should be replaced (only  
applicable when hood is installed for non-ducted  
recirculation). The filter alarm will be seen in the  
DISPLAY for approximately 30 seconds after the  
blower is turned OFF. To reset the hour counter,  
keep the switch pressed for 2 seconds when the  
alarm can be seen in the display.  
The hood is operated using the four push-buttons  
located at eye-level, on the front edge of the hood.  
The grease filters must be cleaned approximately  
once every 30 hours of operation (when the  
central segment on the display goes on or starts  
blinking). Use a warm detergent solution. Grease  
filters are dishwasher safe. Remove filter by  
pushing filter towards the back of hood and  
rotating filter downward.  
The light switch turns the halogen lights on and  
off. Push the light switch once to turn the lights  
ON. Push a second time to turn the lights ON  
to a brighter level. Push a third time to turn the  
lights OFF.  
DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel  
brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the  
surface causing rust.  
Non-ducted Recirculation Filter  
The timer switch turns the blower timer on and off.  
Push this switch once to turn the timer ON. With  
the blower timer turned ON, the speed that was  
selected will blink in the display; if the speed  
selection is changed the blower timer will remain  
ON; the blower will shut off after 5 minutes.  
DO NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants,  
bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain  
in contact with stainless steel for extended  
periods. Many of these compounds contain  
chemicals which may be harmful. Rinse with  
water after exposure and wipe dry with a  
clean cloth.  
Painted surfaces should be cleaned with warm  
water and mild detergent only.
