IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLING AND OPERATING THIS APPLIANCE WARNING: TO REDUCE 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 trun hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
PARTS SUPPLIED: Vent / Damper Filters (2 pcs) Damper Screws (10 pcs) Hardware Note: For safety reasons, range hood mounting screws and anchors will not be included due to the variation of cabinetry constructions and wall material. Please consult your installation specialist regarding the optimal type of mounting screws and wall anchors to suit your home’s construction.
VENTING REQUIREMENTS: • • • • • • • HEIGHT & CLEARANCE: Vent system must terminate to the outside (Roof or side wall). DO NOT terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area. DO NOT use 4” (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps. Use metal/aluminum vent only. Rigid metal/ aluminum vent is recommended. DO NOT use plastic vent. Always keep the duct clean to ensure proper airflow. Calculate the following figures before installation: 1. Distance from the floor to the ceiling 2.
IMPORTANT: • • • • • • • • A minimum of 6” round or 3-1/4 x 10” rectangular duct (purchased separately) must be used to maintain maximum airflow efficiency. Always use rigid type metal/aluminum ducts if available to maximize airflow when connecting to provided duct. Please use Duct Run Calculation below to compute total available duct run when using elbows, transitions and caps. ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or transitions and turns.
VENTING METHODS: • • This range hood is factory set for venting through the roof or wall. Vent work can terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent through a wall, a 90° elbow is needed. IMPORTANT: • • • • NEVER exhaust air or terminate duct work into spaces between walls, crawl spaces, ceiling, attics or garages. All exhaust must be ducted to the outside. Use metal/aluminum duct work only. Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints with certified aluminum or foil tape.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS: IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances. It is the customer’s responsibility to contact a qualified electrical installer. If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the ground path is adequate. A 120-Volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, fused electrical supply is required on a separate 15-amp circuit, fused on both sides of the line. DO NOT ground to a gas pipe.
PREPARATIONS: Advanced Preparations: • Be familiar with the controls of the range hood by reading through Range Hood Operations, Page 14. • Place the range hood on a flat, stable surface. Connect the range hood to a designated standard outlet (120-Volt, 60Hz, AC only) and turn on the range hood. Verify all operations of the range hood by referring to Range Hood Operations.
NEW INSTALLATION: Installations (refer to page 4 for parts): NOTE: Use threaded drywall anchors only when mounting the hood on sheet rock. Mounting the hood on wall studs or lumbars is highly recommended. Hardware Note: For safety reasons, range hood mounting screws and anchors will not be included due to the variation of cabinetry constructions and wall material. Please consult your installation specialist regarding the optimal type of mounting screws and wall anchors to suit your home’s construction.
NEW INSTALLATION: Step 5: Installing the Hood Fig #6 • Using measurements provided on Page 15, measure and drill 4 holes into bottom of cabinet. (See Fig #6) • Depending on exterior venting chosen (See page 7), use measurements provided on Page 15 and cut vent hold in cabinet. • Align range hood to the holes in the bottom of the cabinet and screw in using the supplied screws. (See Fig #6) Step 6: Venting certified aluminum or foil tape so that it is air tight.
REPLACEMENT INSTALLATION: ep 5: Venting Installations (refer to Page 4 for parts): NOTE: Use threaded drywall anchors only when mounting the hood on sheet rock. Mounting the hood on wall studs or lumbars is highly recommended. Step 1: Measuring • Measure the distance between the cooking surface and the bottom of the range hood. A distance of 24” to 30”. Step 2: Preparing The Hood • Remove the unit from packaging. Position the unit on a flat non-abrasive surface.
