  3. Clean ventilating fan frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan, 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 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.

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.CIARRA-CAS75302-30-Inch-Range-Hood-fig-6
  • d) As for the model with LED Board Backlit, The safety distance between the range hood and the cooking surface is not less than 30 inches to avoid potential safety hazards.
