Safety

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

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 the unit, switch power off at the 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. ◼
  • 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 heating equipment manufacturer’s guidelines 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 a wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
  • Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
  • Do not use this unit with any additional solid-state speed control device.
  • To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
  • This unit must be grounded. ◼ As an alternative, this product may be installed with the UL-approved cord kit designated for the product, following instructions packed with the cord kit.
  • When applicable local regulations comprise more restrictive installation and/or certification requirements, the aforementioned requirements prevail on those of this document and the installer agrees to conform to these at his own expense.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

  1. 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.
  2. Always turn the hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flam is food.
  3. Clean ventilating fan frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fans, filters, or in exhaust ducts.
  4. 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*:

  1. 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.
  2. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN — You may be burned.
  3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels — This could cause a violent steam explosion.
  4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
    a) You own a Class ABC extinguisher and you know how to operate it.
    b) The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
    c) The fire department has been called.
    d) 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 it to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
  • To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced fan blade, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. off range hood.
  • 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 the motor continues to shut off and restart, have the hood serviced.
  • For best capture of cooking fumes, the bottom of the hood MUST NOT BE LESS than 25.6” and at a maximum of 30” above the cooking surface.
  • Always follows the cooking equipment manufacturer’s requirements regarding the ventilation needs.
  • To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside — Do not exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.
  • When installing, servicing, or cleaning the unit, it is recommended to wear safety glasses and gloves.
  • Please read the specification label on the product for further information and requirements.

Installation

Prepare for installation:

a) If you have an outlet to the outside, your cooker hood can be connected as below picture by means of an extraction duct (enamel, aluminum, flexible pipe, or inflammable material with an interior diameter of 4.72″).
Choose a straight, short duct run to allow the hood to perform most efficiently. Long duct runs, elbows and transitions will reduce the performance of the hood. Use as few of them as possible. When possible, use at least 2-foot straight runs before any turns. Larger ductwork may be required for best performance with longer duct runs.

b) Before installation, turn the unit off and unplug it from the outlet.

c) The cooker hood should be placed at a distance of 25.6~30inches above the cooking plane for best effect.

Operation

Always turn your hood on before you begin cooking to establish an airflow in the kitchen.
Let the blower run for a few minutes to clear the air after you turn off the range. This will help keep the whole kitchen cleaner and fresher.

Push-button/Electronic button

Operate the hood as follows:

Off button
It’s used for turning off the fan.
Low-Speed button
It’s used for Ventilation in the kitchen. It is suitable for simmering and cooking which do not make much steam.
Medium Speed button
Airflow speed is ideal for ventilation in standard cooking operations.
High-Speed button
When a high density of smoke or steam is produced, press the high-speed button for the highest effective ventilation.
Light button
When lights are OFF, push once on this button to turn ON the lights. Push this button again to turn OFF the lights.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Proper maintenance of the Range Hood will assure the proper performance of the unit.

MOTOR

The motor is permanently lubricated and never needs oiling. If the motor bearings make an excessive or unusual noise, replace the motor with the exact service motor. The fan blade should also be replaced.

GREASE FILTERS

The grease filters should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm dishwashing detergent solution. Grease filters are dishwasher safe.
Clean all-metal filters in the dishwasher using a non-phosphate detergent.
Discoloration of the filters may occur if using phosphate detergents, or as a result of local water conditions – but this will not affect filter performance. This discoloration is not covered by the warranty. To minimize or prevent discoloration, hand wash filters using a mild detergent.

FAN BLADE

The fan blade should be cleaned frequently. Use a clean cloth soaked with a warm detergent solution.

ACTIVATED CARBON FILTER

The activated carbon filter should be changed every 3 months depending on the conditions of use. Replace more often if your cooking style generates extra grease, such as frying and wok cooking. These filters are not washable and cannot be restored. Refer to installation instructions included with the activated carbon filter.

STAINLESS STEEL CLEANING

Do:

  • Regularly wash with a clean cloth or rag soaked with warm water and mild soap or liquid dish detergent.
  • Always clean in the direction of original polish lines.
  • Always rinse well with clear water (2 or 3 times) after cleaning. Wipe dry completely.
  • You may also use a specialized household stainless steel cleaner.

Don’t:

  • Use any steel or stainless steel wool or any other scrapers to remove stubborn dirt.
  • Use any harsh or abrasive cleansers.
  • Allow dirt to accumulate.
  • Let plaster dust or any other construction residues reach the hood. During construction/ renovation, cover the range hood to make sure no dust sticks to the stainless steel surface.

Avoid when choosing a detergent:

  • Any cleaners that contain bleach will attack stainless steel.
  • Any products containing: chloride, fluoride, iodide, and bromide will deteriorate surfaces rapidly.
  • Any combustible products used for cleaning such as acetone, alcohol, ether, benzol, etc., are highly explosive and should never be used close to a range.
PAINTED FINISH CLEANING:

Clean with warm water and mild detergent only. If discoloration occurs, use a finish polish such as automotive polish. (DO NOT use rough abrasive cleaner or porcelain cleaner.)
