INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

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 qualified person(s) in accord-ance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.
B. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heat-ing equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as those pub-lished 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 be vented to the outdoors.
E. This unit must be grounded.

WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY METAL DUCTWORK.
WARNING – UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES DOMESTIC APPLIANCES MAY BE DANGEROUS.

A. No food must be cooked flambè underneath the hood.
B. The use of an unprotected flame is dangerous for the filters and could cause fires.
C. Watch constantly while frying food in order to avoid cooking oil flare ups.
D. Before performing any maintenance operation, disconnect the hood from the electrical service.
The manufacturers will not accept any responsibility for possible damages, because of failure to observe the above instructions.

A few simple rules to plan your ductwork

• THIS HOOD IS DESIGNED TO USE AN 10” ROUND DUCT.

• NEVER REDUCE DUCT SIZE. UNDERSIZED DUCTING SEVERELY RESTRICTS AIR FLOW AND HARMS PERFORMANCE.
  (Example: the area of an 8” Duct is more than 75% larger than a 6” Duct)

• KEEP DUCT RUNS AS SHORT AND STRAIGHT AS POSSIBLE.

• AVOID USING FLEXIBLE METAL DUCTING IF RUN IS LONGER THAN 6’.

• NEVER USE PLASTIC DUCTING.

• USE SMOOTH BORE METAL DUCTING.

• MINIMIZE THE NUMBER OF FITTINGS (see chart).

• WHEN YOU MUST USE FITTINGS, TRY TO SEPARATE THEM WITH SECTIONS OF 4’ OR MORE OF STRAIGHT DUCT.

• ALWAYS FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURER’S GUIDELINES FOR THE COOKING EQUIPMENT YOU ARE VENTING.

• ADHERE TO ALL LOCAL BUILDING CODES AND ORDINANCES.

• USE THE WORKSHEET THAT FOLLOWS TO HELP CALCULATE THE TOTAL EQUIVILENT FEET OF YOUR DUCT RUN.

• TOTAL EQUIVILENT FEET SHOULD BE LESS THAN 100’.

Estimating total equivalent feet in a duct

CAUSING AIR TO CHANGE DIRECTION CAUSES TURBULENCE AND RESTRICTS FLOW IN A SYSTEM.
IF USING FLEXIBLE METAL DUCT – INCREASE ALL MULTIPLIERS BY 50% (12 BECOMES 18 – ETC.)

THIS EASY TO USE WORKSHEET IS FOR 1000 CFM OR LESS.
UNDER “QTY USED” ENTER HOW OF EACH SECTION YOU WILL BE USING.
IN THE FIRST TWO ROWS – ENTER HOW MANY FEET OF EACH TYPE OF STRAIGHT DUCT YOU WILL BE USING (I.E. FOR 20 FT ENTER 20, FOR 30FT ENTER 30).
ENTER THE NUMBER OF EACH TYPE OF TURN YOU ARE USING AND THE TYPE OF END CAP. MULTIPLY ACROSS EACH ROW THE “MULTIPLIER” x “QTY USED” TO GET THE EQUIVALENT FEET FOR THOSE COMPONENTS.
ADD UP ALL THE VALUES IN THE “EQUIVALENT FEET” COLUMN.

Highs and Lows

All range hoods have a recommended range of installation height over the cooking surface.

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 lose its performance and efficiency.

IMPORTANT: This range hood is intended for covered patios or terraces. This unit must protected from the effects of weather. The roof cap and the wall cap must be considered to prevent the entering from the water. Once installed, it must be sealed to prevent leaks.

Switching top and rear venting

TO CONVERT THE UNIT FROM TOP EXHAUST TO REAR EXHAUST FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE STEPS:

1. Unplug the quick disconnect coupling that supplies power to the motor.
2. Remove screws “X” (8) of motor mount “E”. Unhook the motor assembly, rotate it and place it in the back of the hood. Secure the motor mount with the screws.
3. Reverse the position of air flange “F” by unscrewing screws “Y” (10) and positioning it at the rear of the unit.
4. Also reverse the position of the plugs “C” by unscrewing the screws “Z” (4)
5. Reconnect the quick release connector

Installation

• Check that the screws to be used for mounting the hood are suitable for the type of wall on which it is to be mounted.
• Position the wooden bracket on the wall according to the measurements in the figure below and fasten it with the appropriate screws.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Ensure that the wall is suitable to support the weight of the hood. If necessary, create a reinforcement structure before installation.
NOTE: This structure must be strong enough to support the weight of 350 lb (158.7 kg).

• Insert screws “A” into bracket “B” according to the measurements shown in the following figure, taking care not to tighten them completely (fig X).
• Attach bracket “B” to the wall with screws suitable for the type of wall not supplied.
• Place the appliance on the wall by hooking it onto the previously inserted screws “A”.
• Secure the hood permanently with the safety screws “C”. Fully tighten the screws “A”.

• Before installing the hood on the wall, remove the grease filters and set the direction of the air outlet.
• Place the hood in front of the wooden bracket B, screw A and C as shown in the figure and fix it permanently.
• For the various installations use screws and screw anchors suited to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced concrete, plasterboard, etc.). If the screws and screw anchors are provided with the product, check that they are suitable for the type of wall on which the hood is to be fixed.
• Limited to installation on plasterboard walls: make sure that the screws are fixed to the wall support elements. If this is not the case, install a support structure made up from 2 by 4 inch cross members in correspondence with the screw anchorage points.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

1. Route the power cord to the junction box inside the hood.

2. Using listed conduit fittings and connectors, connect the power supply to the box and eachline to the appropriate wire following this color convention:
   BLACK = HOT LEG
   WHITE = NEUTRAL
   GREEN/YELLOW = GROUND
   Polarity must be observed.
   Unit must be properly grounded.
   Use a double throw disconnect switch.

3. Replace the box cover

4. Replace the Anti-grease Baffles.

All wiring must be in compliance with national electrical code, ANSI/NFPA 70-1999 and all local codes and regulations.
WARNING – Suitable for use in damp location when installed in a GFCI protected branch circuit.

Maintenance

Regular cleaning and maintenance is the key to long life and peak performance of any equipment.

ANTI-GREASE BAFFLE FILTERS: Your XO hood is equipped with stainless steel pro-style baffle filters designed to capture grease from cooking. The baffles are easily removed for cleaning either by soaking in a warm, mild dish detergent solution, rinsing thoroughly and drying – or – by washing in your dishwasher.

TO REMOVE THE BAFFLES:

1. Pull down on the release latch (shown left)
2. Lower the front edge of the baffle
3. Pull forward and remove
4. To replace, insert the rear of the baffle, holding the latch open, swing the the front up into place and release the latch.

The importance of this simple process is essential for two reasons. First to help keep your kitchen clean and healthy, but it is also critical to minimize the risk of fire.

Baffle filters should be cleaned at least once every 2 months, more frequently depending on the type of cooking performed and the build up of grease.

CLEANING STAINLESS STEEL:
Do not use corrosive detergents, abrasive detergents or oven cleaners.
Do not use any product containing chlorine bleach or any product containing chloride.
Do not use steel wool or abrasive scrubbing pads which will scratch and damage surface.

Cleaning Stainless Steel Clean periodically with warm soapy water and clean cotton cloth or micro fiber cloth. Always rub in the direction of the stainless steel grain. To remove heavier grease build up use a liquid degreaser detergent. After cleaning use a non-abrasive stainless steel polish/cleaners, to polish and buff out the stainless luster and grain. Always rub lightly, with a clean cotton cloth or a micro fiber cloth and buff in the direction of the stainless steel grain.

Any painted surfaces should be cleaned with warm water and detergent only.

To remove the oil collector tray “H”, unscrew the three knobs “G” and pull downwards. Clean the tank and reassemble it by performing the reverse operation.

LED LIGHT REPLACEMENT
To replace the bulbs, rotate the lamp anticlockwise as shown in Figure. Replace the bulbs with new ones of the same type.
