TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR
INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you
have questions, contact the manufacturer at the address or telephone
number listed in the warranty.
2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel
and lock service 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.
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) and 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 separate solid-state speed control device.
8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
9. This unit must be grounded.
10. When installing, servicing or cleaning the unit, it is recommended to
wear safety glasses and gloves.
11. When applicable local regulations comprise more restrictive installation
and/or certification requirements, the aforementioned requirements
prevail on those of this document and the installer agrees to conform
to these at his own expenses.
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.: 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.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE
EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING*:
1. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet or metal tray,
then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. IF THE
FLAMES DO NOT GO OUT IMMEDIATELY, EVACUATE AND CALL
THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
2. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN — You may be burned.
3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels — violent
steam explosion will result.
4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
A. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you already
know how to operate it.
B. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
C. The fire department is being called.
D. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
* Based on "Kitchen Fire Safety Tips" published by NFPA.
1. For indoor use only.
2. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or
explosive materials and vapors.
3. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced
impellers, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. off power unit.
4. Your hood motor has a thermal overload which will automatically shut
off the motor if it overheats. The motor will restart when it cools down.
If the motor continues to shut off and restart, have the hood serviced.
5. The minimum hood distance above cooktop must not be less than 24".
A maximum of 30" above cooktop is recommended for best capture of
cooking impurities.
6. Two installers are recommended because of the large size and weight
of this unit.
7. To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air on a ducted
installation, be sure to duct air outside — Do not exhaust air into
spaces within walls or ceiling or into attics, crawl spaces or garage.
8. Because of the high exhausting capacity of this hood, make sure
enough air is entering the house. Open a window close to or in the
kitchen.
9. To reduce the risk of fire and electrical shock, the Best WPP1 series
models should only be installed with their own built-in blowers.
10. As an alternative, this product may be installed with the UL-approved
range hood cord kit HCK44, following instructions packed with the
cord kit.
11. Please read specification label on product for further information and
requirements.

Hi-Flow Baffle Filters
The hybrid baffle filters should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm detergent solution. Wash more often if your cooking style generates
greater grease — like frying foods or wok cooking.
Remove hybrid baffle filters by pushing them towards the front of hood and rotating filters downward. Baffle filters are dishwasher safe.
Allow filters to dry completely before reinstalling them in the hood.
Clean all-metal filters in the dishwasher using a non-phosphate detergent. Discoloration of the filter may occur if using phosphate detergent
or as a result of local water conditions — but this will not affect filter performance. This discoloration is not covered by the warranty.
Hood Cleaning
Stainless steel cleaning:
Avoid when choosing a detergent:
- Any cleaners that contain bleach will attack stainless steel.
- Any products containing: chloride, fluoride, iodide, bromide will deteriorate surfaces rapidly.
- Any combustible products used for cleaning such as acetone, alcohol, ether, benzol, etc., are highly explosive and should never be
used close to a range.
Do:
• Regularly wash with clean cloth or rag soaked with warm water
and mild soap or liquid dish detergent.
• Always clean in the direction of original polish lines.
• Always rinse well with clear water (2 or 3 times) after cleaning.
Wipe dry completely.
• You may also use a specialized household stainless steel
cleaner.
Don’t:
• Use any steel or stainless steel wool or any other scrapers to
remove stubborn dirt.
• Use any harsh or abrasive cleansers.
• Allow dirt to accumulate.
• Let plaster dust or any other construction residues reach the
hood. During construction/renovation, cover the hood to make
sure no dust sticks to stainless steel surface.
16. CALIBRATE IQ BLOWER SYSTEM™
After the hood is installed and wired, engage the calibration process (our Guaranteed
Performance System Technology to ensure full-rated airflow is being delivered). Prior to
calibration, ensure that all filters, light bulbs and duct system are installed.
Calibration ProCess
Hold the calibration button for 3 seconds; calibration button will light up and stay on
for up to 13 minutes. The blower will start and begin the calibration process. When
calibration is complete, one of two things will occur:
A. The blower turns off and calibration button light stays on = Successful calibration.
Press the button to turn off the LED. NOTE: The LED will also turn off if you select any
blower speed on the control.
B. The blower turns off and calibration button light blinks continuously = Too much
restriction in the ductwork is preventing the IQ Blower System™ from achieving the
rated airflow. The blower is automatically set to maximum intensity.
NOTE: Common items that cause restrictions: restricted damper flap (backdraft
damper, wall cap, roof cap), too many elbows, duct size less than 80% of hood
outlet, poor transition, use of flex ducting and/or crushed ducting.
Three options are available if your hood system has too much restriction:
1. Accept airflow as is. Press the calibration button to accept airflow as is.The IQ Blower System™ is now configured to its highest possible
performance. The blinking calibration light goes out. NOTE: The LED will also turn off if you select any blower speed on the control.
2. Correct duct restriction, clear the original calibration data, and repeat the calibration process.
a. Correct the duct restriction.
b. Clear the original calibration data by holding calibration button for 10 seconds. The light will blink 3 times to confirm and the blower
configuration will go back to default settings.
c. Repeat calibration process from the beginning.
3. Clear calibration data to reset hood to default factory settings and achieve standard high pressure blower performance by holding
calibration button for 10 seconds. The light will blink 3 times to confirm and the blower configuration will go back to default settings.

17. USE AND CARE
Grease Rail Cleaning
The grease drip rail should be cleaned frequently. Remove it from the hood (see hereafter) and use
a warm detergent solution. As with the baffle filters, wash more often if your cooking style generates
greater grease — like frying foods or wok cooking. Allow grease drip rail to dry completely before
reinstalling it in the hood.

and then speed 4). From the fourth speed, the speed goes down to level 1.
2. The last speed used is kept in memory so that when the unit is turned on, it will return to the last setting except the fourth, the
next time the blower will be turned on, it will return to speed 3.
HEAT SENTRY™
The hood is equipped with a protective device that activates when excessive heat is detected inside the hood. This device takes control of
the blower and deactivates speed 4for a 10-minute period and sets it on speed 3. During the Heat Sentry activation, only speed 3can be
used; the speed 4button will flash while the speed 3button will light up.
C. off blower/filter maintenanCe button:
Press this button to turn off the blower. Pressing this button also cancels the delay-off function (if activated).
NOTE: After 25 hours of operation, the 4 blower speed lights will flash 30 seconds to indicate the filters need to be cleaned in order to
maintain efficient hood operation. Pressing the OFF button will reset the code to indicate that maintenance has been completed.
d. off lighting:
Press this button to turn lights off.
e. on light button:
Press this button to turn on the LED lamps. The light intensity changes by increments of 1 (e.g.: Press once for low setting, once again for

provision is held to be prohibited or invalid, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the
remainder of such provision or the other remaining provisions of the Limited Warranty.
Remedy: During the applicable limited warranty period, the Company will, at its option, provide replacement parts for, or repair or replace, without charge,
any Product or part thereof, to the extent the Company finds it to be covered by and in breach of this limited warranty under normal use and service. The
Company will ship the repaired or replaced Product or replacement parts to you at no charge. You are responsible for all costs for removal, reinstallation
and shipping, insurance or other freight charges incurred in the shipment of the Product or part to the Company. If you must send the Product or part
to the Company, as instructed by the Company, you must properly pack the Product or part—the Company is not responsible for damage in transit. The
Company reserves the right to utilize reconditioned, refurbished, repaired or remanufactured Products or parts in the warranty repair or replacement
process. Such Products and parts will be comparable in function and performance to an original Product or part and warranted for the remainder of the
original warranty period (or such longer period as may be required by applicable law).
Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to refund the money actually paid by you for the Product. If the Product or component is no longer
available, replacement may be made with a similar product of equal or greater value, at Company’s sole discretion. This is your sole and exclusive remedy
for breach of this limited warranty.
Exclusion of Damages: THE COMPANY’S OBLIGATION TO PROVIDE REPLACEMENT PARTS, OR REPAIR OR REPLACE, AT THE COMPANY’S OPTION,
SHALL BE YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY AND THE COMPANY’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE OBLIGATION. THE
COMPANY SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH
THE PRODUCT, ITS USE OR PERFORMANCE.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply
to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. The disclaimers,
exclusions, and limitations of liability under this warranty will not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law.
This warranty covers only replacement or repair of defective Products or parts thereof at the Company’s main facility and does not include the cost of field
service travel and living expenses.
Any assistance the Company provides to or procures for you outside the terms, limitations or exclusions of this limited warranty will not constitute a waiver
of such terms, limitations or exclusions, nor will such assistance extend or revive the warranty. The Company will not reimburse you for any expenses
incurred by you in repairing or replacing any defective Product, except for those incurred with the Company’s prior written permission.
How to Obtain Warranty Service: To qualify for warranty service, you must (a) notify the Company at the address or telephone number stated below within
seven (7) days of discovering the covered defect, (b) give the model number and part identification and (c) describe the nature of any defect in the Product
or part. At the time of requesting warranty service, you must present evidence of the original purchase date. If you cannot provide a copy of the original
written limited warranty, then the terms of the Company’s most current written limited warranty for your particular product will control.

AFIN DE RÉDUIRE LES RISQUES D’INCENDIE,
D’ÉLECTROCUTION OU DE BLESSURES CORPORELLES,
SUIVEZ LES DIRECTIVES SUIVANTES :
1. N’utilisez cet appareil que de la façon prévue par le manufacturier. Si
vous avez des questions, contactez le manufacturier à l’adresse ou au
numéro de téléphone indiqués dans la garantie.
2. Avant de réparer ou de nettoyer l’appareil, couper l’alimentation
électrique en verrouillant le panneau de distribution afin d’éviter sa
remise en marche accidentelle. Si le panneau de distribution ne peut
être verrouillé, y fixer un avertissement en évidence, telle qu’une
étiquette de couleur vive.
3. Les travaux d’installation et de raccordement électrique doivent être
effectués par une personne qualifiée, conformément aux codes et
aux standards de construction, incluant ceux concernant la protection
contre les incendies.
4. Une quantité d’air adéquate est requise afin d’assurer une bonne
combustion et l’évacuation des gaz par la cheminée dans le cas
des équipements alimentés au gaz afin de prévenir les retours de
cheminée. Conformez-vous aux instructions et aux standards de
sécurité des manufacturiers d’équipement de chauffage, tel qu’ils
sont publiés par la National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) et
l’American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE) ainsi que les responsables des codes locaux.
5. Lorsque vous coupez ou perforez un mur ou un plafond, prenez garde
de ne pas endommager les fils électriques ou autre installation qui
pourraient y être dissimulés.
6. Les ventilateurs avec conduits doivent toujours évacuer l’air
à l’extérieur.
7. Ne pas utiliser cet appareil avec une commande de vitesse à
semi-conducteur.
8. Afin de réduire les risques d’incendie, n’utilisez que des conduits
de métal.
9. Cet appareil doit être mis à la terre.
10. Il est recommandé de porter des lunettes et des gants de sécurité lors
de l’installation, de l’entretien ou de la réparation de cet appareil.
11. Lorsqu’une réglementation est en vigueur et qu’elle comporte des
exigences d’installation et/ou de certification plus restrictives, lesdites
exigences prévalent sur celles de ce document et l’installateur entend
s’y conformer à ses frais.
AFIN DE RÉDUIRE LES RISQUES DE FEU DE CUISINIÈRE :
a) Ne jamais laisser les appareils de cuisson sans surveillance lorsqu’ils
sont réglés à feu vif. Les débordements engendrent de la fumée et
des déversements graisseux pouvant s’enflammer. Chauffez l’huile
lentement, à feu doux ou moyen.
b) Mettez toujours la hotte en marche lorsque vous cuisinez à feu vif ou
que vous cuisinez des mets flambés (par ex. : crêpes Suzette, cerises
jubilé, steaks au poivre flambés).
c) Nettoyez régulièrement la (les) roue(s) du ventilateur. Ne laissez pas
la graisse s’accumuler sur le ventilateur, les filtres ou les conduits
d’évacuation.
d) Utilisez le bon format de casserole. Servez-vous toujours de casseroles
et d’ustensiles appropriés à la dimension de la surface chauffante.
AFIN D’ÉVITER TOUT RISQUE DE BLESSURES LORS D’UN
FEU DE CUISINIÈRE, SUIVEZ CES DIRECTIVES* :
1. Étouffez les flammes avec un couvercle hermétique, une tôle à biscuits
ou un plateau métallique et ensuite, éteindre le brûleur. PRENEZ
SOIN D’ÉVITER les brûlures. SI LES FLAMMES NE S’ÉTEIGNENT
PAS IMMÉDIATEMENT, ÉVACUEZ LES LIEUX ET APPELEZ
LES POMPIERS.
2. NE PRENEZ JAMAIS UNE CASSEROLE EN FLAMMES DANS VOS
MAINS. Vous pourriez vous brûler.
3. N’UTILISEZ PAS D’EAU, incluant un linge à vaisselle ou une serviette
mouillée, cela pourrait occasionner une violente explosion de vapeur.
4. N’utilisez un extincteur QUE DANS LE CAS OÙ :
A. Vous savez qu’il s’agit d’un extincteur de classe ABC et que vous
en connaissez le fonctionnement.
B. Le feu est petit et limité à l’endroit où il a débuté.
C. Les pompiers ont été avisés.
D. Vous pouvez combattre l’incendie en ayant accès à une sortie
de secours.
*Tirées du Kitchen Fire Safety Tips publié par la NFPA.
1. Pour une utilisation à l’intérieur seulement.
2. Pour usage domestique seulement. Ne pas utiliser pour évacuer des
vapeurs ou des matières dangereuses ou explosives.
3. Afin d’éviter tout dommage au moteur et de débalancer ou de
rendre bruyante la roue du moteur, garder votre appareil à l’abri des
poussières de gypse et de construction/rénovation, etc.
4. Le moteur de votre hotte encastrable possède une protection
thermique qui éteindra automatiquement le moteur s’il devient
surchauffé. Le moteur redémarrera automatiquement une fois refroidi.
Si le moteur continue à arrêter et à redémarrer, faites-le vérifier.
5. La distance minimale entre le bas de votre hotte et la surface de
cuisson ne doit pas être inférieure à 24 po. Un maximum de 30 po
au-dessus de la surface de cuisson est recommandé pour une
meilleure évacuation des odeurs de cuisson.
6. Deux installateurs sont recommandés lors de l’installation vu la grande
dimension et le poids de cet appareil.
7. Afin de réduire les risques d’incendie, assurez-vous d’évacuer l’air à
l’extérieur. Ne pas évacuer l’air dans des espaces restreints comme
l’intérieur des murs ou plafond ou dans le grenier, faux plafond
ou garage.
8. À cause de la grande capacité d’évacuation de cet appareil, il est
recommandé d’ouvrir une fenêtre dans ou près de la cuisine afin de
remplacer l’air évacué.
9. Afin de réduire les risques d’incendie et d’électrocution, les modèles
Best de la série WPP1 doivent être installés uniquement avec leurs
ventilateurs internes intégrés.
10. Cet appareil peut être installé avec le cordon électrique de hotte
HCK44 homologué par UL en suivant les instructions incluses dans
l’emballage du cordon électrique.
11. Veuillez consulter l’autocollant apposé à l’intérieur du produit pour
plus d’information ou autres exigences.

!
Lors de l’installation, de l’entretien ou de la réparation de cet appareil, il est recommandé de porter des gants et des lunettes
de sécurité.
Établir où le conduit passera entre la hotte et l’extérieur. Un conduit droit et court permettra à la hotte de fonctionner plus efficacement. Se
référer à l’illustration ci-dessous.
Installer un conduit de 8 po ou de 10 po, des coudes (si requis) et un capuchon de mur ou de toit. Relier le conduit en métal au capuchon,
puis acheminer le conduit jusqu’à l’emplacement de la hotte. Sceller hermétiquement les raccords à l’aide de ruban adhésif de métal de
2 po de largeur.
La distance minimale entre le bas de votre hotte et la surface de cuisson ne doit pas être inférieure à 24 po. Un maximum de 30 po
au-dessus de la surface de cuisson est recommandé pour une meilleure évacuation des odeurs de cuisson.
