Frequently Asked Questions - JVC3300JSA GE

What are the dimensions of the GE JVC3300JSA range hood?

The hood has a standard width of 30 inches and a depth of 19-1/2 inches. The recommended installation height is 24 to 36 inches above the cooking surface. The minimum interior cabinet height must be 16 inches.

How to clean the hood filters?

The metal grease filters are washable. Clean them frequently with mild detergent and warm water. Use a soft cloth, avoid abrasive pads. For painted surfaces, use a soft cloth with warm water and ammonia (optional).

How to replace the hood bulbs?

Before replacing, make sure the light switch is off. Remove the access panel by sliding the side latches. Replace with candelabra bulbs of 40 W max (120 V, E12, type B or T8). Let bulbs cool before touching.

Can I install the hood in recirculation mode (without external duct)?

Yes, a recirculation kit (part JXN30) is available as an option. It allows air to be recirculated into the room. Follow the installation instructions provided with the kit.

The fan turns on by itself, is this normal?

Yes, the hood is equipped with a heat sensor. If the temperature above the cooking surface becomes excessive, the fan activates or switches to high speed automatically. It will turn off when the temperature returns to normal.

What types of ducts can I use for venting?

Use only rigid metal ducts of 6 inch diameter. Do not use flexible ducts. Seal all joints with aluminum duct tape to prevent leaks.

What is the electrical requirement for the hood?

The hood requires a power supply of 120 V, 60 Hz, on a 15 or 20 amp circuit protected by a circuit breaker or fuse. It comes with a three-prong grounded power cord. Do not use an extension cord.

What to do if the hood does not work or the fan does not spin?

First check the fuse or circuit breaker. Make sure the fan switch is set to an on position (1, 2 or 3). If the problem persists, check the power supply and the condition of the filters. Refer to the troubleshooting table in the manual.

How to maintain the painted surfaces of the hood?

Regularly clean the surfaces with a soft cloth dampened with warm water and mild detergent. You can add a tablespoon of ammonia. Avoid steel wool pads or any abrasive cleaner. Dry with a clean cloth.

INSTALLATION CLEARANCES

This vent hood and liner assembly must be installed 24" required minimum and 36" recommended maximum above the cooking surface.

- Always refer to the cooktop or range installation instructions for product-specific clearances.

NOTE: Installation height should be measured from the cooking surface to the bottom edge of the metal hood liner or cabinet surface.

NOTE: UL requires any combustible surface to be a minimum of 30" above the cooking surface.

• The custom cabinet internal height must be 16" minimum.
• This hood can be vented to the outdoors, or it can be installed for recirculating operation. For recirculating operation, refer to Recirculating Installation Planning.
• This hood may be mounted onto a cabinet or installed over an island.

ADVANCE PLANNING

Duct Install Planning

• This hood is designed to be vented vertically through the ceiling. Use a 6" round duct. Use locally supplied elbows to vent horizontally through the rear wall.
• Use metal ductwork only.
  • Determine the exact location of the vent hood.

• Plan the route for venting exhaust to the outdoors.
  To maximize the ventilation performance of the vent system:

• Minimize the duct run length and number of transitions and elbows.

• Maintain a constant duct size.
• Seal all joints with duct tape to prevent any leaks.
• Do not use any type of flexible ducting.

- Install a wall cap or roof cap with damper at the exterior opening. Purchase the wall or roof cap and any transition and length of duct needed in advance.

- When applicable, install any makeup (replacement) air system in accordance with local building code requirements. Visit GEAppliances.com for available makeup air solutions.

Wall and Ceiling Framing for Adequate Support

This vent hood is heavy and the cabinet structure needs to support the weight of the loaded insert sleeve. Adequate structural support must be provided in all types of installations.

- Installation will be easier if the vent hood is installed before the cooktop is installed.

Custom Cabinet Frame Planning

- The custom canopy or cabinet should have a rectangular hole to accommodate the custom hood insert by itself, or with the liner. This hole is the same size for both a wall installation and an island installation.

Metal Liners

- Metal liners (30" width JXL30 and 36" width JXL36) are optional but are recommended for installation heights below 30" for cabinetry protection. You can construct a custom metal (or non-combustible) liner when a larger liner is needed.

Recirculation Install Planning

A recirculation duct kit JXN30 is available for recirculation installation.

Power Supply Planning

The location of the power supply connection is called out in the Wall Installation and Island Installation sections on page 13.

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 slide switch 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 6" ducting to perform optimally. Using smaller duct pipe will cause reduced venting. Minimize the duct run length and number of transitions and elbows. GE 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.
