3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be

done by a qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, includ- ing fire-rated construction codes and stan- dards.

4. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion

and exhausting of gases through the flue (chim- ney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guidelines and safety stan- dards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

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 on low or medium settings. B. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when cooking flaming foods. 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 INJURY TO PER- SONS 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, EVACU- ATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths

or towels - violent steam explosion will result.

4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

A. You know you have a Class ABC extin- guisher and you already know how to op- erate it. B. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started. C. The fire department is being called. D. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

• Based on “Kitchen Fire Safety Tips” pub- lished by NFPA. CAUTION

1. To reduce 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

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 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 best capture of cooking impurities, the

bottom of the hood should be a minimum of 24" and a maximum of 30" above the cooking sur- face.

8. Two installers are recommended because of the

large size and weight of this hood.

9. Please read specification label on product for

further information and requirements.- 4 -

Unpack hood and check contents. You should receive:

1 - Decorative Flue Assembly

1 - Parts Bag containing:

1 - Mounting Bracket

1 - Discharge Collar

1 - Flue Mounting Bracket

1. Construct wood wall framing that is flush

with interior surface of wall studs. Make sure: a) the framing is centered over installation location. b) the height of the framing will allow the mounting bracket to be secured to the framing within the dimensions shown.

2. After wall surface is finished, secure mount-

ing bracket to framing using dimensions shown.

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 cap and work back to- wards hood location. Use duct tape to seal the joints between ductwork sections. MOUNTING SCREWS RECTANGULAR CUTOUT WALL FRAMING MOUNTING BRACKET INSTALL THE HOOD

1. Hang the hood from the

bracket through the rectangular cut-out on the back of the hood. Cut- out is larger than the bracket to allow for horizontal adjustment. The bottom of the hood should be 24" to 30" above the cooking surface.

2. Secure the hood with

mounting screws. Use drywall anchors, provided, if wall studs or framing are not available. MOUNTING SCREWS- 6 - WIRING Note: This range hood must be properly grounded. The unit should be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with 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 inter- fere with the bracket fastening area or with the decorative flue (where the flue touches the wall). Fit the plug into the power socket.- 7 - CONNECT DUCTWORK Ducted Configuration Adjust the width of the flue mounting bracket to equal the inside width of decorative flue. Insert and tighten mounting screws to hold bracket width. Use mounting screws and drywall anchors to secure flue mounting bracket to the ceiling as shown.

1. Use 6" round metal duct to connect the

duct collar on the hood to the ductwork above.

2. Use duct tape to make all joints secure and

MAINTENANCE Proper maintenance of the Range Hood will assure 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 filter by pushing filter towards the back of hood and rotating filter downward. Charcoal Filters The charcoal filters should be changed every 6 months. Rotate the filters to remove and replace. 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 cleanser and water. Rub lightly in 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 of time.

• 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 com- pounds contain chemicals which may be harmful. Rinse with water after expo- sure and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Painted surfaces should be cleaned with warm water and mild detergent only. GREASE FILTERS NON-DUCTED RECIRCULATION FILTER INSTALLATION
