When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a
prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified personnel
in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated
construction codes and standards.
4. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases
through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent backdrafting.
Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guidelines 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.
5. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and
other hidden utilities.
6. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
7. Do not use this unit with any other solid-state speed control device.
8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only steel ductwork.
9. This unit must be grounded.
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 cooking flaming foods
(i.e. Crêpes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
c) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate
on fan or filters.
d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the
surface element.

INSTALL THE DUCTWORK (Ducted Hoods Only)
1. Decide where the ductwork
will run between the hood
and the outside.
2. A straight, short duct
run will allow the hood to
perform most efficiently.
3. Long duct runs, elbows
and transitions will reduce
the performance of the
hood. Use as few of them
as possible. Larger ducting
may be required for best
performance with longer
duct runs.
4. Install wall cap or roof
cap. Connect round metal
ductwork to cap and work
back towards the hood
location. Use duct tape to
seal the joints between
ductwork sections.
MEASURE THE INSTALLATION
The minimum hood distance above cooktop MUST NOT BE LESS than 24”.
A maximum of 30” above cooktop is highly recommended for best capture of
cooking impurities.
Distances over 30” are at the installer and users discretion; providing that the ceil-
ing height permits.
NOTE:
On 7-ft 8-in. ceilings
Hood distance above cooktop is:
Minimum 24”, Maximum 30” (for ducted discharge).
Minimum 24”, Maximum 29” (for non-ducted discharge).
On 8-ft. ceilings
Hood distance above cooktop is:
Minimum 24”, Maximum 30” (for both ducted and non-ducted discharge).
On 9-ft. ceilings
