WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO
PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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
- 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.
- When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
- To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this range hood with an additional speed control device.
- Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
- To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
- Use with approved cord-connection kit only.
- This unit must be grounded.
O REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
- 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.
- Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when cooking flaming foods.
- Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
- Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A **RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:***
- 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 – a violent steam explosion will result.
- Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
- You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you already know how to operate it.
- The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
- The fire department is being called.
- You can fight the fire with your back to an exit. * Based on “Kitchen Fire Safety Tips” published by NFPA
CAUTION
- For indoor use only
- For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
- To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impellers, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. off power unit.
- For best capture of cooking impurities, your range hood should be mounted 18-24” above the cooking surface.
- Please read specification label on product for further information and requirements.
NOTE : Monitor your fan for unusual sounds, smells and smoke. if any appear, turn off the fan immediately and replace it.
PLANNING DUCTWORK INSTALLATION
(This section for 40000 and 42000 hoods only. 41000 hoods skip this section and go on to “Prepare the Hood”. ) Begin planning ductwork by deciding where the duct will run between the range hood and the outside. For best performance, use the shortest possible duct run and a minimum number 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 and 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 in FIG.
B. In more complex ducting situations, a 3-1/4” x 10” rectangular ducting
range hood (40000 hood) 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 – 42000 & 42000D hood only).
FIG. D. Ducting straight up through the roof using 3-1/4” x 10”
rectangular duct (for single story installations – 40000 hood only).
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).
FIG. F. Straight up through the roof using 6” round duct (for single-
story installations).
PREPARE THE HOOD
-
Unpack hood and check contents. You should receive: 1 – Aluminum Filter (40000 and 42000 & 42000D hoods only) 1 – 3-1/4” x 10” Damper/Duct Connector (mounted inside of hood for shipping only) (40000 hood only) 1 – Duct free Micrometer® System I Filter (41000 hood only) 1 – 7” Round Damper (42000D hoods only.)
-

-
(40000 hood ONLY) Remove duct knockout. Insert screwdriver under edge of knockout, break tabs, and peel knockout back with pliers. (FIG. 3)
-
(40000 hood ONLY) Install damper/duct connector over opening made in STEP 4. Use #8B sheet metal screws provided. (FIG. 3) (42000 hood ONLY) Install Model 87 round damper (purchase separately) over opening in top of hood. (42000D hood ONLY – Install 7” round damper (included) over opening on top of hood.
PREPARE THE INSTALLATION LOCATION
Omit STEP 1 if hood will be installed under cabinets with flush bottom.
-
(For installation on recessed bottom cabinets only) Attach a wood filler strip at each side of recessed area 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, 3” from each end of strip. See FIG. 4. 2.
-
Measure and mark the following (FIGS. 5A & 5B): a.) Electrical wiring opening in wall or cabinet. b.) Duct opening in wall or cabinet (40000, 42000 & 42000D hoods ONLY)
WARNING
WHEN CUTTING OR DRILLING INTO WALL OR CABINET, BE CAREFUL NOT TO CUT EXISTING ELECTRICAL WIRING. -
Use 1-1/4” bit to drill opening for electric wiring.
-
Cut out duct opening in wall or cabinet with saber saw or keyhole saw.
-
Center hood in installation opening and trace keyhole slots onto wood filler strips on cabinet bottom.
-
Screw four #10 x 7/8 wood screws into exact center of narrow end of traced keyhole slots. Allow 3/8” of screws to project, so that hood can be fitted into place later
INSTALL THE DUCTWORK
(This section for 40000 and 42000 hoods only. 41000 hoods skip this section
and go on to “Install Range Hood”. )
NOTE \
These instructions will follow plans made on Page 2. Start at the exterior and
run ductwork back to the range hood. For best possible performance, use the
shortest possible duct run and a minimum number of elbows. Do not vent a range
hood into an attic space. A buildup of grease in the attic could become a fire
hazard. Use only metal ductwork. DO NOT USE PLASTIC DUCT. Assemble duct run
securely so that in case of a grease fire on the range, the fire will be
contained inside metal ductwork. Tape all duct connections.
- Follow appropriate directions below for type of duct run you install. a.)Wall Cap Discharge; (FIG. 7 ).
Use saber saw or keyhole saw to cut hole slightly larger than duct size used so that duct will line up easily with damper/duct conector on hood. Install casing strips if cap will be installed on siding. Attach required amount of duct to wall cap and run duct back to hood. Fasten cap to wall and caulk well. b.)Roof Cap Discharge; (FIG. 8)
Cut a hole in roof slightly larger than duct size being used. Run ductwork down to hood location. Leave 3/4” of duct projecting above roof surface on high side. Trim duct parallel to roof pitch and seal all around duct with roof cement. Carefully trim shingles and slide back of roof sheet under shingles. Nail roof sheet to roof under shingles at top two corners and two sides. Nail sheet directly to roof in four places at bottom. Using roof cement, seal all nail heads and shingles which were cut or lifted. Do not seal bottom edge of roof sheet.

WARNING
ALWAYS DISCONNECT ELECTRIC POWER BEFORE SERVICING RANGE HOOD.
FAN ASSEMBLY
Remove filter. Remove two screws holding motor bracket to range hood, and
unplug fan assembly. Be careful not to allow fan assembly to drop when screws
are removed. (FIG. 14)
CLEANING
Clean your hood with a mild detergent suitable for painted surfaces. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLOTH, STEEL WOOL PADS OR SCOURING POWDERS. Fan assembly may be vacuumed. Fan assembly is permanently lubricated, and never needs oiling. If the product is making excessive or unusual noises, replace the motor or blower assembly.
HOW TO AVOID A COMMON RANGE-TOP GREASE FIRE
- Your range hood provides a protective barrier between the cooking surface and the cabinets.
- Keep fan, filters and grease laden surfaces CLEAN according to instructions.
- Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat to keep the cooking area and the hood cooler.
- Use high heat settings only when necessary.
- Never leave cooking surface unattended. Boil-over causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
- Always use adequate-sized utensils.
- If preparing flaming foods, such as Cherries Jubilee, always turn hood ON to HIGH to prevent a high heat situation which can cause damage or fire
HOW TO EXTINGUISH A COMMON RANGE-TOP GREASE FIRE
- Never pick up a flaming pan. If dropped, flames can spread quickly.
- DO NOT USE WATER! A violent steam explosion may result. Wet dishcloths or towels are also dangerous.
- Smother flames with a close fitting lid, cookie sheet or metal tray.
- Flaming grease can also be extinguished with baking soda or a multipurpose dry chemical extinguisher.
- Turn off surface units – if you can do so without getting burned
