BEFORE INSTALLING THE HOOD

1. For the most efficient air flow exhaust, use a straight run or as few elbows as possible.
   CAUTION:Vent unit to outside of building, only.

2. At least two people are necessary for installation.

3. Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings, consult a Qualified Installer, check if they perfectly fit with your cabinet/wall.

4. Do not use flex ducting.

5. COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional back draft damper installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the ductwork. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break. The break should be as close as possible to where the ducting enters the heated portion of the house.

6. Make up air: Local building codes may require the use of Make-Up Air Systems when using Ducted Ventilation Systems greater than specified CFM of air movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area.

Ducting Options

CFM reduction kit

If required or desired this hood is to be used only in conjunction with CFM reduction kit model KIT02748.
Consult your HVAC professional and local building codes for specific requirements in your area.
Closely follow the instructions set out in this manual.
All responsibility, for any eventual inconveniences, damages or fires caused by not complying with the instructions in this manual, is declined.
Ducting version
The hood is equipped with a 6” (15.2 cm) round transition for discharge of fumes to the outside.

A. Roof cap
B. 6” (15.2 cm) round vent| A. Wall cap
B. 6” (15.2 cm) round vent
---|---

Ductless (Recirculating)
In cases where it should not be possible to discharge cooking fumes and vapour to the outside.
Attach a charcoal filter and the deflector on the duct cover support bracket. Fumes and vapours are recycled through the top grille by means of a duct connected to the transition and the transition mounted on the deflector.
For this version only purchase the Ductless Recirculating Kit.
Minimum Duct Size: 6” Round Pipe.

A. Deflector
B. 6” (15.2 cm) round vent
Preparation
Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be constructed.
Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of wall/ ceiling.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
Recommended installation height:
Hood installation height above cooktop is the users preference.
The lower the hood is above the cooktop, the more efficient the capturing of cooking odors, grease and smoke.
CAUTION

There is no maximum mounting height, however, we recommend mounting the hood no greater than 36” (91.4 cm) above the cooking surface. For every inch (2.54 cm) above 36” (91.4 cm), fume and moisture capture efficiency diminishes at an increasing rate and may not deliver an acceptable level of ventilating performance.
This hood is intended for household use.
PLEASE READ THE INSTALLATION MANUAL FOR SPECIFIC APPLICATION. Check your ceiling height and hood height before selecting your hood.

Range Hood Care

Cleaning
Do not spray cleaners directly to the control while cleaning the Hood. The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly (at least with the same frequency with which you carry out maintenance of the grease filters) internally and externally. Clean using the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. Do not use abrasive products. Do not use chlorine base cleaners.
DO NOT USE ALCOHOL.
WARNING
Failure to carry out the basic cleaning recommedations of the cooker hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks.
Therefore, we recommend observing these instructions.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to the motor or any fire damage linked to inappropiate maintenance or failure to observe the above safety recommendations.
Grease Filter
Traps cooking greaser particles.
This must be cleaned once a month using non agressive detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature and a short cycle. When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolour slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.
To remove the grease filter, pull the spring and release the handle.

A. Spring release handle
Replacing a LED Lamp
The LED lights are replaceable by a service technician only. See the service contact information in the next page.
Charcoal filter
If the model is not vented to the outside, the air will be recirculated through disposable charcoal filters that help remove smoke and odors.

1. Cover the grill that protects the suction motor with the carbon filter so that the slots on the filter correspond to the pins on the sides of the motor protection grill.
2. Turn the carbon filter clockwise to block them (bayonet fixing).
   NOTE: The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned. It should be replaced every 4-6 months (depending on hood usage).
