Important Safety Information
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 turn range hood ON when cooking at
high heat or when ambeing food (i.e. Crepes
Suzette,CherriesJubilee,etc.).
c) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should
not be allowed to accumulate on fan or lter.
Before servicing or cleaning unit, unplug and
disconnect the hood from the power supply.
d)Useproperpansize.Alwaysusecookware
appropriateforthesizeofthesurfaceelement.
WARNING: TO REDUCE RISK OF INJURY TO
PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP
GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING *
a) S MOTHER FLAMES with a close-tting
lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn
off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT
BURNS. If the ames 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 A, B, C
extinguisher, and you already know how to
operate it.
2) The re is small and contained in the area
where it is started.
3) The re department is being called.
4) You can ght the re with your back to an exit.
*Based on “Kitchen Fire Safety Tips”
published by NFPA
To reduce the risk of injury to persons in the
event of a gas leaks:
• Extinguishanyopename.
• DO NOT turn on the lights or any type of appliance.
• Openalldoorsandwindowstodispersethe
gas. If you still smell gas, call the gas company
and re department.
Your safety and the safety of others is very
important. We have provided many important
safety messages in this manual and on your
appliance. Always read and obey all safety
messages. All safety messages will tell you what

Installation
STEP 1
Read the Safety Instructions
It is very important to read the safety instructions on pages 4 and 5.
IMPORTANT: It is the installer’s responsibility to comply with installation clearances.
STEP 2
Unpack the Range Hood and Prepare Tools
Unpack the range hood and parts carefully and make sure all parts are included as shown on page 6. DO NOT remove the
protective lm covering the appliance until the installation is fully completed. Check with a qualied and trained installer or
local codes for makeup air requirement, if any.
STEP 3
Plan Desired Location
Plan a desirable location that ts all requirements in the Safety and Installation sections of this manual. Also plan
where and how the ductwork will be installed. A straight or short duct run will allow the unit to perform most efciently.
Long duct runs, elbows and transitions will reduce the performance of the unit. Each elbow is the equivalent to 5 to 10
feetofstraightrun.Propersizeductworkshouldbe6inches.To reach a 9 foot ceiling make sure hood is installed
at 30 inches from cooking surface.
If ductwork is already installed, unit should be connected to a 6” duct (1” reducers may be used but more than 1” will
overwork the motor and the unit will not function properly) and ensure ductwork is free from debris.
STEP 4
Test Unit’s Functions
Plug the unit in and test all of the functions before installing.
WARNINGS:
• PleasemakesuretoreadALLsafetyinstuctionsonpages4and5.

Installation
IMPORTANT:
• 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.Arigidmetal/aluminum
vent is recommended.
• DONOTusea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. Distance between the floor and the countertop/stove
3. A distance of 24” to 30” is recommended between
stove top and the bottom of range hood. 30” minimum
is required for gas stove tops.
4. Height of hood and duct cover.
For the most efficient & quiet operation:
• Itisrecommendedthattherangehoodbevented
vertically through the roof through 10” (15.3 cm) or
bigger round metal/aluminum vent work.
• Thesizeoftheventshouldbeuniform.
• 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 one
elbow is used.
• DONOTinstalltwoelbowstogether.
• The length of vent system and number of elbows should be
kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.
• Theventsystemmusthaveadamper.Ifrooforwall
cap has a damper, you may remove damper flaps from
damper to increase air flow.
• Use silver tape or duct tape to seal all joints in the
vent system.
• Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening
around the cap.

Place the range hood’s key holes securely on the mounting screws and then tighten screws.
STEP 12
Install Damper
Place damper and damper gasket on top of ventilation hole, then connect using the four screws (included).
STEP 13
Install Ductwork
Attach ductwork to damper then duct tape the ductwork to make joints secure and air-tight. Do not install duct tape too
tight as this will stop the damper aps from opening, which will overwork the motor and the unit will not function properly.
STEP 14
Install Lower Chimney
Place lower chimney on top of the Range hood.

Installation
STEP 15 (Optional, depending on ceiling height)
Install Upper Chimney Bracket and Upper Chimney
Screw upper chimney bracket on the wall above the range hood directly below the ceiling, using three wood screws, making
sure to screw them directly into studs. If studs are not available, you can use wall anchors.
Place the upper chimney inside lower chimney. The upper chimney is telescopic, so extend it until you reach the ceiling,
then screw the chimney to the bracket using the provided screws. Peel off protective lm.

STEP 18
Install Bafe Filters
Install Bafes as shown in illustration.
To replace the bafe lters: Hold the bafe by the
two knobs. Place the up end of the bafe against
the inside front of the hood. Slide it up and push
the bottom end back until it rmly seats into place.
The metal bafe lters channel grease released
by foods on the cook top into the drip trays. The
bafes also help prevent aming foods on the
cook top from damaging the inside of the hood.
For this reason, the bafes must ALWAYS be in
place when the hood is used. The bafe lters and
Grease Trays should be cleaned once a month, or
as needed. See page 18 to clean.
STEP 17
Install Grease Trays
Slide the grease trays as shown, installed side by
side. The bafe lters and grease trays should be
cleaned once a month, or as needed. See page 18
to clean.
To replace the grease trays: Place and seat the drip
tray into the hood rack. Slide them left and right until
all trays are side-by-side in place in the track.

or a stainless steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe the
surface in the direction of the grain. Follow the cleaner
instructions for cleaning the stainless steel surface.
