IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION
FOR GENERAL VENTILATING USE ONLY. DO NOT USE TO EXHAUST HAZARDOUS OR EXPLOSIVE MATERIALS OR VAPORS.

WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
A. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer
B. Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch power off at service panel and lock service panel 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.
C. Installation Work and Electrical Wiring Must Be Done By Qualified Person(s) In Accordance With all Applicable Codes & Standards, Including Fire-rated Construction.
D. 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 manufacturers 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.
E. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
F. Ducted systems must always be vented to the outdoors.

Install this hood in accordance with all requirements specified.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING
To Reduce The Risk Of Fire Or Electric Shock, Do Not Use This Hood With Any External Solid State Speed Control Device.

WARNING
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 flambeing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe').
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 PERSONS, IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a) SMOTHER FLAMES with a close - fitting lid, cookie sheet, or other metal tray, then turn off the gas burner or the electric element. BE CAREFUL TO
PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
b) NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - you may be burned.
c) DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - a violent steam explosion will result.
d) 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.
OPERATION
Always leave safety grills and filters in place. Without these components, operating blowers could catch onto hair, fingers and loose clothing.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility in the event of failure to observe the instructions given here for installation, maintenance and suitable use of the product. The manufacturer further declines all responsibility for injury due to negligence and the warranty of the unit automatically expires due to improper maintenance.

CAUTION
Remove carton carefully. Wear gloves to protect against sharp edges.

LOCATION REQUIREMENTS

IMPORTANT
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
- It is the installer's responsibility to comply with installation clearances.
- Range hood location should be away from strong draft areas, such as windows, doors and strong heating vents.
- Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used. Given dimensions provide minimum clearance.
- Grounded electrical outlet is required. See "Electrical Requirements" section.
- All openings in ceiling and wall where canopy hood will be installed must be sealed.

- Do not terminate the vent system into an attic or other enclosed area.
- Do not use a 4" (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall cap.
- 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 efficient performance.
For the most efficient and quiet operation:
- Use no more than three 90^ elbows.
- Make sure there is a minimum of 24" (61 cm) of straight vent between the elbows if more than 1 elbow is used.
- Do not install 2 elbows together.
- Use clamps or duct tape to seal all joints in the vent system.
- The vent system at exit must have a cold air damper.
- Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.
- Best performances are reached with straight piping, without elbows and using smooth pipe.
Cold Weather Installations
An additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a thermal break should be installed to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the vent system. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break.
The break should be as close as possible to where the vent system enters the heated portion of the house.
Makeup Air
Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems when using ventilation systems greater than specified CFM of air movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area.
Venting Methods
Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. Use 314 " x 10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm) rectangular with a maximum vent length of 35 ft (10.7 m) for vent system.

NOTE
Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates both back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduce performance.

Calculating Vent System Length
To calculate the length of the system you need, add the equivalent feet (meters) for each vent piece used in the system.
These directions are for rectangular vent installation only. If you choose to use round rigid metal venting the minimum diameter to use is 8".

PREPARE THE LOCATION

NOTE
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling, wall or cabinet. Fitting material is provided to secure the hood to most types of walls and cabinets. However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of wall and cabinet.
- Disconnect power.
- Select a flat surface for assembling the range hood. Place covering over that surface.
- Lift the range hood and set it upside down onto covered surface.
- If cabinet has recessed bottom, add "two - 2" (5.1 cm) wide filler strips. Length and thickness determined by recess dimensions. Four flat head wood screws or machine screws with washers and nuts to attach filler strips in locations shown.
