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 on medium settings. B. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambéing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé). C. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on 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 FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING: A. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction. B. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guidelines 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. C. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities. D. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors. E. When applicable, install any makeup (replacement) air system in accordance with local building code requirements. Visit GEAppliances.com for available makeup air solutions. F. Turn off breaker to adjacent rooms while working. WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY METAL DUCTWORK.

Refer to Using the Hood sections for operating instructions.22 49-2000930 Rev. 2 Troubleshooting tips ... Before you call for service Save time and money! Review the charts on the following pages first and you may not need to call for service. Problem Possible Cause What To Do Fan/Light does not operate when button is turned ON A house fuse may be blown or a circuit breaker tripped. Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker. Loud or abnormal airflow noise Wrong duct size used in installation. This hood requires 8” ducting to perform optimally. Using smaller duct pipe will cause reduced venting. Minimize the duct run length and number of transitions and elbows. GE Appliances service technicians cannot correct this issue if installed improperly. Fan fails to circulate air or moves air slower than normal and/or fan is making loud or abnormal airflow noise Obstructions in duct work. Make sure nothing is blocking the vent. Make sure your wall or roof cap has a blade or door. Damper blade on wall or roof cap may not be open. Make sure damper swings freely. Damper blades may flip over and will not fully open when this happens. Adjust to original position. Metal grease filter and charcoal filter (if present) may be dirty. Clean the metal grease filter and replace charcoal filter (if present). See Care and Cleaning of the Vent Hood. Insufficient makeup (replacement) air Sufficient makeup (replacement) air is required for exhausting appliances to operate to rating. Check with local building codes, which may require or strongly advise the use of makeup air. Visit GEAppliances.com for available makeup air solutions. Early light failure Light wattage is too high. Replace with correct wattage. Fan automatically turns on and can not be turned off. This is normal. The sensor feature will automatically turn the fan on if cooking temperature becomes too hot. The fan will then turn off when temperatures cool to an appropriate level. Fan keeps going off and on The motor is probably overheating and turning itself off. This can be harmful to the motor. Check to be sure the filters are clean. If off and on cycling continues, call for service. Lights not functioning Wrong bulbs are used. Must use GU10 compatible dimmable bulbs.

The metal baffles channel grease released by foods on the cooktop into the drip trays. The baffles also help prevent flaming foods on the cooktop from damaging the inside of the hood. The baffles must ALWAYS be in place when the hood is in use. The grease baffles and drip trays are dishwasher- safe and should be cleaned every month, depending on usage of the hood. Grease Drip Tray To install: Place and seat the drip trays into the designated hood track. Slide them left or right until all trays are side-by- side in place in the track. To remove: Carefully, use the grease tray lip to lift the tray upwards and out. The tray will be free of the designated hood track. To clean: Swish the drip tray in hot soapy water and rinse in clean water or wash it in the dishwasher. Do not use abrasive cleaners. NOTE: Some discoloration of the filter may occur in the dishwasher. Baffle Metal Grease Filter To install: Insert the top of the baffle into the track behind the control panel. The arrows on the side of the baffle should be pointing towards the front of the unit. Slide the baffle up and push the bottom end back until it firmly seats into place. To remove: Use front knob to pull filter forward, towards the control panel. The bottom of the filter becomes free of the grease drip tray. Use back knob to pull the baffle away from the track behind the control panel.

To clean: Swish the filter in hot soapy water and rinse in clean water or wash it in the dishwasher. Do not use abrasive cleansers. NOTE: Some discoloration of the filter may occur in the dishwasher.
