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 the hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe’).
  • Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
  • 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:

  • 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.
  • NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN-YOU MAY BE BURNED.
  • DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a violent steam explosion will result.
  • Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
    1. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you already know how to operate it.
    2. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
    3. The fire department is being called.
    4. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
  • Follow the barbeque grill manufacturer’s instructions when using gas grills, cookers, or any propane appliances.

Recommendations
  1. Consult a licensed ventilation contractor or a qualified technician for the proper installation of exhaust ducting. Locate the cooking area for minimum cross drafts away from doors and windows, when possible.
  2. Ducts must be of adequate size and duct runs should be as short as possible. Where turns are necessary, keep the turning radius as large and as smooth as possible.
  3. The ducting must be airtight. Use a minimum of 2 sheet metal screws at every duct joint. Then, seal the duct joints with high-quality duct tape.
  4. Do not use this unit with any solid-state speed control device.
  5. This unit must be grounded.

WARNING!
Following are Manufacturer’s Suggestions. Always Observe Local Building Codes.

Hoods installed in custom canopies constructed of combustible materials should be installed with the combustible material structure a minimum of 36″ above the cooking surface. Hoods installed in custom canopies constructed of non- combustible materials, should be installed with the non-combustible material structure a minimum of 30″ above the cooking surface. Follow all instructions regarding minimum safe clearances and installation location. Failure to do so may result in a safety hazard or fire. To reduce the risk of fire use only metal ductwork.

Electrical Connection

WARNING!
Ensure that the power supply is disconnected before proceeding. Verify that the power supply matches the ratings found on the appliance data label before proceeding. The complete appliance must be properly grounded at all times when electrical power is applied. Do not ground the appliance with the neutral {white) house supply wire. A separate ground wire must be utilized. Failure to complete electrical connections properly may result in damaged or non- functional systems. Follow instructions carefully to ensure proper installation.

It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that a qualified person performs the electrical connection of this appliance. The electrical installation, including minimum supply wire size, must comply with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70-1990 (or the latest revision) and local codes and ordinances. A copy of this standard may be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association, 1 Batterymarch Park, Quincy, Massachusetts 02169-7471

Important Electrical Requirements:
Observe all National and local governing codes and ordinances. Have all electrical installations been done by a qualified electrical installer? This Hood requires a 120 Volt, 60 Hertz electrical supply of an individual properly grounded branch circuit protected by a 15 or 20 Amp circuit breaker.
The Bull Outdoor Products ® Barbecue Hood is supplied with a 6.0 Amp three- speed fan control.

For safety precautions, each Ventilation Hood should be installed in a GFCI- protected branch circuit.

Determining the Direction of the Vent and Securing the Hood

MOUNTING HOLES:
Because the Bull Outdoor Products ® Barbecue Hood was designed for all applications, no mounting holes have been pre-drilled. This allows for custom applications for mounting. The hood should be attached to the framing through the top and back, whenever possible. Remove the filters. Mark and drill screw holes through the hood as required. Secure the hood by driving screws (provided by others) through the screw holes.

NOTE:
DRILLING THROUGH STAINLESS STEEL REQUIRES TITANIUM DRILL BITS. BE CAREFUL NOT TO DRILL THROUGH THE UL LABEL OR INTO THE HOOD’S ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS.

Use and Care

OPERA TING CONTROLS:
Always activate the ventilator when using cooking appliances. Activate the ventilator a few minutes before starting to cook to establish an airflow pattern within the room. Adjust the fan speed as needed. Adjust the dimmable halogen lights as desired.

WARNING!
Do NOT operate the blower/ventilator system without the filters in place, or with dirty, grease-laden filters.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS:
Do not operate the blower at a speed higher than necessary to remove the cooking exhaust. Turn off the unit once the smoke and cooking odors have been eliminated. Clean filters and grease-laden surfaces often to improve efficiency.

CARE & CLEANING:
Proper cleaning is necessary to maintain performance and appearance, while also ensuring safe operation. The frequency of cleaning should be adjusted according to the type and amount of cooking. The best results will be achieved by cleaning soiled components as soon as possible. Filters must be cleaned regularly. The commercial­style baffle filters should have long slots running front to back. The filters may be cleaned by hand washing in hot water using a mild detergent solution, or by placing them in a dishwasher. Dry the filters completely before using them again. Stainless steel surfaces should be cleaned with a solution of mild detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry with a soft lint-free cloth.

CAUTION:
If a commercially available stainless steel cleaner is used, it is important to read the labels for chlorine compounds. Chlorine is a corrosive substance. If these compounds are present, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft lint-free cloth. Follow the polish manufacturer’s instructions. Always wipe stainless steel surfaces with the grain. Never wipe across the grain. After cleaning, reinstall the filters carefully. Most common scrubber-type pads will scratch the hood.

HALOGEN LIGHT BULBS:
Hoods are designed for PAR 20 halogen lamps. They can be purchased at most home and/or grocery stores, e.g., McCoys, Lowe’s, Fry’s, Kroger, Albertsons, True Value, Home Depot, etc.

We endeavor to incorporate the best technology provided to our industry, in manufacturing the Bull Outdoor Products® Barbecue Hood, therefore we reserve the right to change models, mode of operation, and specifications without prior notice.
