  8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
  9. This unit must be grounded.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

  • A. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly in low or medium settings.
  • B. Always turn the hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe’).
  • C. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the fan or filter.
  • D. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.

WARNING: 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 – a violent steam explosion will result.
  4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
  5. A. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you already know how to operate it.
  6. B. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
  7. C. The fire department is being called.
  8. D. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
  9. Based on “Kitchen Fire Safety Tips” published by NFPA.

CAUTION

  1. To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside. Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.
  2. Take care when using cleaning agents or detergents.
  3. Avoid using food products that produce flames under the Range Hood.
  4. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
  5. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impellers, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. off the power unit.
  6. 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.
  7. For the est capture of cooking impurities, the bottom of the hood should be a minimum of 24″ and a maximum of 30″ above the cooking surface.
  8. Two installers are recommended because of the large size and weight of this hood.
  9. This product is equipped with a thermostat which may start the blower automatically. To reduce the risk of injury and to prevent power from being switched on accidentally, switch power off at the service panel and lock or tag the service panel.

PREPARE THE HOOD

Unpack the hood and check the contents. You should receive:

  • 1 – Hood
  • 1 – Decorative Flue Assembly
  • 1 – Flue Mounting Bracket
  • 1 – Parts Bag (B08081196) containing:
    • 2 – Mounting Brackets
    • 10 – Mounting Screws (4,8 x 38mm Pan Head)
    • 4 – Mounting Screws (3,9 x 9,5mm Pan Head)
    • 4 – Mounting Screws (3,9 x 9,5mm Pan Head Black) 10 – Drywall Anchors
  • 1 – Installation Instructions

INSTALL THE DUCTWORK

NOTE: To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.

  1. Decide where the ductwork will run between the hood and the outside.
  2. A straight, short duct run will allow the hood to perform most efficiently.
  3. Long duct runs, elbows, and transitions will reduce the performance of the hood. Use as few of them as possible. Larger ducting may be required for best performance with longer duct runs.
  4. Install a roof or wall cap. Connect round metal ductwork to the cap and work back to the hood location. Use duct tape to seal the joints between ductwork sections.

INSTALL MOUNTING BRACKETS

  1. Construct wood wall framing that is flush with the interior surface of wall studs. Make sure:
  2. a) the framing is centered over the installation location.
  3. b) the height of the framing will allow the mounting brackets to be secured to the framing within the dimensions shown.
  4. After the wall surface is finished, secure mounting brackets to framing using the dimensions shown.

INSTALL THE HOOD

  1. Hang the hood from the brackets through the rectangular cut-outs on the back of the hood. Cut-outs are larger than the brackets to allow for horizontal adjustment. The bottom of the hood should be 24″ to 30″ above the cooking surface.
  2. Height adjustment screws provide vertical adjustment.
  3. Depth adjustment screws provide horizontal adjustment.
  4. Secure the hood with mounting screws (4,8x38mm). Use drywall anchors, provided, if wall studs or framing are not available.
  5. Remove the tape located on the damper.

WIRING

Note: This range hood must be properly grounded. The unit should be installed by a qualified electrician by all applicable national and local electrical codes.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING – Improper grounding can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install an outlet near the appliance.

Set the electrical power supply within the space covered by the decorative flues.
Position the power socket at a maximum distance of 33-7/16” (85 cm) from where the lead exits from the hood (see illustration alongside). Make sure this does not interfere with the decorative flues (where the flue touches the wall).
Fit the plug into the power socket.

CONNECT DUCTWORK

  1. Use (2) screws (4,8x38mm) and drywall anchors to secure the flue mounting bracket to the ceiling or wall as shown.
  2. Use an 8″ round metal duct to connect the discharge collar on the hood to the ductwork above.
  3. Use duct tape to make all joints secure and airtight.
  4. Connect the upper flue to the bracket with mounting screws (3,9×9,5mm).
  5. Slide the lower flue downward, until it fits properly around the hood.
  6. Secure lower flue to hood with mounting screws (3,9×9,5mm).

MAINTENANCE

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

Grease Filters
The grease filters should be cleaned fre-quently. Use a warm detergent solution. Grease filters are dishwasher-safe.
Remove the filter by pushing the filter toward the back of the hood and rotating the filter downward.

Hood Cleaning
Stainless steel is one of the easiest materials to keep clean. Occasional care will help preserve its fine appearance.

Cleaning tips:

  • Hot water with soap or detergent is all that is usually needed.
  • Follow all cleaning by rinsing with clear water. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth to avoid water marks.
  • For discolorations or deposits that persist, use a non-scratching household cleanser or stainless steel polishing powder with a little water and a soft cloth.
  • For stubborn cases, use a plastic scouring pad or soft bristle brush together with a cleaser and water. Rub lightly in the direction of polishing lines or “grain” of the stainless finish. Avoid using too much pressure which may mar the surface.
  • DO NOT allow deposits to remain for long periods.
  • DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface causing rust.
  • DO NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain in contact with stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these compounds contain chemicals that may be harmful. Rinse with water after exposure and wipe dry with a clean cloth.

Painted surfaces should be cleaned with warm water and mild detergent only.

OPERATION

Controls

  • The hood is operated using the slide controls under the front edge of the hood.
  • The light switch turns the halogen lights on and off.
  • The blower on / off switch turns the blower on to the running speed set by the blower speed control. The blower must be turned on and off using this switch.

The blower speed control changes the speed of the blower from 1 to 3 position.
The pilot lamp lights up whenever the blower is on.

HEAT SENTRY™
Your hood is equipped with a HEAT SENTRY™ thermostat. This thermostat is a device that will turn on or speed up the blower if it senses excessive heat above the cooking surface.

  1. If the blower is OFF – it turns the blower ON to a HIGH speed.
  2. If the blower is ON at a lower speed setting – it turns the blower up to HIGH speed. When the temperature level drops to normal, the blower will return to its original setting.

WARNING
The HEAT SENTRY thermostat can start the blower even if the hood is turned OFF. When this occurs, it is impossible to turn the blower OFF with its switch. If you must stop the blower, do it from the main electrical panel.

HALOGEN BULBS

This range hood requires 4 halogen bulbs (Type JC, 12V, 20W, G-4 Base).
ALWAYS SWITCH OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY OPERATIONS ON THE APPLIANCE.

To change bulbs:

  1. Loosen the ring nut by turning it counterclockwise.
  2. Pull the bulb downwards to remove – DO NOT ROTATE. CAUTION: BULB MAY BE HOT!
  3. Replace with Type JC, 12V, 20W, G-4 Base halogen bulb. Do not touch the replacement bulb with bare hands!

FUSE REPLACEMENT

  • SWITCH OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.
  • Remove the grease filters.
  • Remove the electrical box support and open the fuse box.
  • Replace with the same type of fuse (5x20mm, 4A, 125V).
