WARNING

TO 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 flambeing food (i.e.: Crêpes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
  • Clean ventilating fan frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan, filters or in exhaust ducts.
  • 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 18” and at a maximum of 30” above the cooking surface.

  • Always follow 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 ceiling or into attics, crawl space or garage.

  • When installing, servicing or cleaning the unit, it is recommended to wear safety glasses
    and gloves.

  • Please read specification label on product for further information and requirements.

Operation

Always turn your hood on before you begin cooking to establish an air flow 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.

Operate the hood as follows:

FIG 1 Operation

NOTE: At range hood start-up or after a power failure, a small icon (1) appears shortly (for ± 2 seconds) on LCD screen; this is normal.

BLOWER ACTIVATION/SPEED LEVEL CHANGE/FILTER INDICATOR RESET
When blower is OFF, press on this push button to turn ON the blower at the last saved speed. If
there was no speed saved, the blower will be set on LOW speed.

NOTE: When LOW speed is activated from OFF, the blower starts on MEDIUM speed for a very short lapse of time, and then resume to LOW speed.

To change the blower speed, press on this button again until the desired speed is reached (from
LOW to MEDIUM to HIGH speed to OFF). Each time a blower speed is activated, a rotating blower icon appears on left side of LCD screen, with dot(s) under it (slow for LOW with one dot, faster for MEDIUM with 2 dots and fastest for HIGH with 3 dots).

When blower is on (no matter the speed level), press and hold this button until the blower icon
disappears from the LCD screen; this will turn off the blower and save the blower speed chosen.

Heat Sentry™
This hood is equipped with a protective device that activates the blower when an abnormally high heat level is detected while the blower is activated. During the Heat Sentry activation, this device takes control of the blower and set it on MEDIUM speed while all dots under the blower icon blink.

However, the lights can be still controlled. The blower will remain on MEDIUM speed until the heat is back to normal, it then returns to the speed previously selected.

NOTE: When excessive heat is detected, Heat Sentry will shut off both blower and lights while
all dots under the blower icon will blink faster. Both blower and lights will remain off until the ambient temperature cools down; the blower will then start on MEDIUM speed (the lights can be controlled again). The blower will remain on MEDIUM speed until the heat is back to normal, it then returns to the speed previously selected.

FILTER CLEANING REMINDER
This icon appears on LCD screen 30 seconds after turning OFF the blower when it is time to clean hood and filters (refer to Cleaning and Maintenance on page 7). This happens every time the blower is turned OFF until the filter cleaning reminder has been reset. Once the cleaning is done, reset the filter cleaning reminder by pressing on blower activation push button for 3 seconds while the icon appears on LCD screen for 30 seconds.

DELAY OFF
When the blower is on, press this button to activate the delay function. This icon appears on LCD screen beside the blower icon to indicate the function is on. The blower will continue to operate for 10 minutes and then, will shut off automatically (both blower and delay icons will disappear from LCD screen). When Delay off is activated, it is possible to change the blower speed by pressing on blower push button without affecting the remaining time of the delay.

To cancel the delay off function before the end of the 10-minute cycle, press button again.

ON LIGHTING/LIGHT INTENSITY CHANGE
Press this button to turn on the lights at the last saved intensity; the light icon appears on right side of LCD screen and the number of dots below it shows which light intensity is on (one dot for LOW, two dots for MEDIUM and three dots for HIGH).
To change the light intensity, press the button until the desired level is reached (from HIGH intensity, pressing again will shut off the lights.

When lights are on (no matter the light intensity), press and hold this button until the light icon
disappears from the LCD screen; this will shut off the lights and save the chosen light intensity.
The LED modules included with this hood are the latest in LED cooktop illumination technology specially designed to operate in the elevated temperatures of cooking – offering bright lighting and lasting up to 25 times as long as a standard bulb and greater reliability than typical replacement LED bulbs.

MASTER ON/OFF
Press this button to turn on the lights and the blower at the last saved intensity. When either lights or blower are ON, pressing this button will memorize the current blower speed and lighting level prior to shut them OFF.

Cleaning and Maintenance

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

MOTORS
The motors are permanently lubricated and never need oiling. If the motor bearings make excessive or unusual noise, replace the motor with the exact service motor. The fan wheel should
also be replaced.

GREASE FILTERS
The grease filters should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm dish washing 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.

NON-DUCTED RECIRCULATION FILTERS
The non-ducted recirculation filters should be changed every 3 to 6 months. Replace more often
if your cooking style generates extra grease, such as frying and wok cooking. Refer to installation
instructions included with non-ducted recirculation filters.

FAN WHEELS
The center of the fan wheels should be cleaned frequently. Use a clean cloth soaked with warm
detergent solution.

STAINLESS STEEL CLEANING

Do:

  • Regularly wash with 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, fl uoride, iodide, 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.)
