All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word “DANGER,” “WARNING” or “CAUTION.” These words mean: An imminently hazardous situation. You could be killed or seriously injured if you don’t immediately follow instructions. A potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious bodily injury. A potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in moderate or minor injury. All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.3 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, electrical shock, injury to persons,

or damage when using the range hood, follow basic precautions, including the following:

This appliance is intended for normal family household use only.

Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch power o at 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 qualied person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including re-rated construction.

Do not operate any fan with a damaged cord or plug. Discard fan or return to an authorized service facility for examination and/or repair.

Sucient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the ue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling; do not damage electrical wiring and other utilities.

Ducted fans must always be vented outdoors.

For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

To reduce risk of re and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside - do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings, attics or into crawl spaces, or garages.

To reduce the risk of re, use only metal ductwork.

To reduce the risk of re or electrical shock, do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.4 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Wipe up spill over immediately.

Do not allow aluminum foil, plastic, paper or cloth to come in contact with a hot surface.

Do not allow pans to boil dry.

Always have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.

Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

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 ambeing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or lter.

SMOTHER FLAMES with a close tting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn o the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the ames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE

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: – You know you have a class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it. – The re is small and contained in the area where it started. – The re department is being called. – You can ght the re with your back to an exit.

Based on “Kitchen Fire Safety Tips” published by NFPA.

The specied CFM varies from locale to locale.Consult your HVAC professional for specic requirements in your area.General VentingThe vent hood is designed to vent through the roof or wall. To vent through a wall, a 90° elbow is needed. Vent system must terminate to the outdoors except for non-vented (recirculating) installations. Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area. If it is not possible to vent cooking fumes outside, the hood can be used for a non-vented (recirculating) installation by attaching a deector and a charcoal lter. A Recirculatiing Kit is available for purchase. Use metal vent only. Rigid metal vent is recommended. Plastic or metal foil vent is not recommended. The length of vent system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide ecient performance.NOTE: A 90° elbow must be installed immediately above the hood.7 Roof Venting:

RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD

A 120 volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15-amp fused, grounded electrical supply is required. Use an outlet that cannot be turned o by a switch. Do not use an extension cord.NOTE: Before cleaning, or removing a light bulb, turn vent hood o, and then disconnect the vent hood from the electrical source. When you are nished, reconnect the vent hood to the electrical source. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard Disconnect power before installing unit. Failure to do so can result in death, fire, or electric shock. Disconnect power before installing range hood.

Mark a reference line on the wall.3. Mark centers of the fastener locations on the wall.IMPORTANT: All screws must be installed into wood. If there is no wood to screw into, additional wall framing supports may be required.

4. Drill ³⁄₁₆" (4.8 mm) pilot holes at all locations where screws are being installed into

wood.5. Install the two - 5 x 45 mm mounting screws. Leave a ¹⁄₄" (6.4 mm) gap between the wall and the back of the screw head to slide range hood into place. (6.4 mm)

STEP 3 - INSTALL VENT COVER BRACKET

a Mounting Screws b Mounting Slots 3. Remove the grease lter. See “Range Hood Care” section.4. Level the range hood and tighten upper mounting screws.5. Install two 5 x 45 mm lower mounting screws and tighten.6. Fit vent system over the exhaust outlet.7. Seal connection with clamps.8. Check that back draft dampers work properly.12

STEP 6 - CONNECT VENT SYSTEM

(NON‑VENTEDINSTALLATIONONLY) IMPORTANT: If the air deector is not installed correctly, air will ow freely inside the vent duct covers instead of being forced out of the vent openings on the side of the vent duct cover.

1. Using the four screws (provided) in the Recirculation Kit, fasten the air deector

to the duct cover bracket.

hand sides, and then rotate each lter slightly until the hooks on the lter wrap around the studs. Blower Intake - Right-hand Side

WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard Make sure the range hood lights are cool and power to the range hood has been turned off before replacing the light bulb(s). The lenses must be in place when using the range hood. The lenses serve to protect the light bulb from breaking. The lenses are made of glass. Handle carefully to avoid breakage. Failure to do so could result in death, electric shock, cuts or burns. Turn o the range hood light to allow the bulb to cool. To avoid damage or decreasing the life of the new bulb, do not touch bulb with bare ngers. Wear cotton gloves or use a tissue when replacing the light bulb.If a new bulb does not illuminate, rst check that it is inserted correctly in the socket before calling service. 1. Disconnect power.2. Insert a at-blade screwdriver, and gently pry o the light shield.
