replace it with the new motor. Be sure to fully engage the electrical 
connections and tighten the motor mount screws. If necessary,

Maintenance/Troubleshooting (Continued)
C  What To Do If...
Smoke is in the kitchen. Check the following:
Is the hood sized appropriately for the type of cooking equipment 
it is ventilating?
The purpose of a hood is to collect cooking contaminants and hold 
them until the blower unit can exhaust them to the outside. Therefore, it 
is necessary to size the hood based on the type of cooking equipment 
that is being used. Whenever possible, hoods should overlap the 
cooking equipment by at least three inches on each side. For island 
applications, this is mandatory. The hood should also project out to 
the front edge of the front burners. Finally, the height of the hood can 
aect its performance. Generally speaking, taller hoods are more 
suitable for professional style ranges, whereas under cabinet hoods 
are recommended for standard cooking equipment.
