IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read All Instructions Before Using the Appliance.
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
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. Crepes Suzette,
Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe’).
c) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease
should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or
filter.
d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the surface element.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO
PERSONS, IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP
GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a) SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid,
cookie sheet, or other metal tray, then turn off
the gas burner or the electric element. BE
CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames
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 ABC
extinguisher, and you already know how to
operate it.
2) The fire is small and contained in the area
where it started.
3) The fire department is being called.
4) You can fight the fire with your back to an

Turn to LO, MED, HI or MAX (Models

ALWAYS USE THE HIGH SETTING WHEN
GRILLING.
For Best results
• Continuous use of the fan system while cooking
helps keep the kitchen comfortable and less
humid.
• It also reduces cooking odors and soiling
moisture that create a frequent need for
cleaning.
• Turn the blower on before starting to cook.
• Use a rear burner when browning or pan frying
meat.
• Open a window or inside door slightly.
• Clean the filters and the wall behind the filters
frequently.
• The blower should be turned on for a few
minutes before cooking in order to establish air
currents up-ward through the hood. Thus when
heat, smoke, moisture, grease and cooking
odors are produced, they will be carried outside
instead of drifting into other rooms.
• Use the low speeds for normal use and the
higher speeds for strong odors or fumes.
• Drafts across the range or cooktop will cause
the escape of heat, smoke, moisture, grease
and cooking odors from the hood. Such drafts
should be prevented in so far as possible.
• The best job of ventilation in the kitchen is done
where the only air currents are those created by
the blower itself.
•For Gas Cooktops, a lower blower speed
should be used if:
• the gas flame is being distorted by the air
movement.
• the burner continually sparks (clicks)
• the burner flame repeatedly blows out.

CARE AND CLEANING
The efficiency of the range hood system depends on the cleanliness of the intake and filters.
The frequency of cleaning depends on the amount and type of cooking.
• Do not use the ventilating system without the filters in place or with grease-laden filters or surfaces.
WARNING To avoid risk of fire and explosion do not use flammable liquids or solvents.
Always unplug or disconnect the appliance from the power supply before servicing.
WARNING: Be sure the entire hood (including the filters and light bulbs) has cooled and grease has
solidified before attempting to clean any part of the appliance.
Filters
The metal grease filters are made of anodized
aluminum and are long lasting.
To Remove The Metal Grease Filters
• Turn the fan and lights off.
• Push each handle towards the back and pull
downwards.
To Replace The Metal Grease Filters
• Reverse procedure.
To Clean Filters
•It is recommended that the filters be washed at
least once a month; they can be washed by
hand or in the dishwasher.
• Drain water through edge holes and let each
filter dry thoroughly before replacing it.
LIGHTS
CAUTION:
Before replace the lamps, switch power off at
service panel and lock service panel disconnecting
means to prevent power from being switched on
accidentally.
NOTE: Turn off the lights and fan. Allow the
lights to cool before handling. If new lights do
not operate be sure lights are inserted correctly
before calling service.
Replace Lights
halogen lamp (Models DUH30252UC -
DUH36252UC Only)
• Remove the damaged light (twist counter
clockwise) and replace with a new 120 Volt, 50
Watt (maximum) 50° halogen light made for a
GU10 base, suitable for use in open
luminarie.
Incandescent olive shaped lamp (Models
DUH30162UC - DUH30152UC - DUH30122UC -
DUH36162UC - DUH36152UC - DUH36122UC
Only)
• Remove the light shield unscrewing the side
screw, lifting it outwards to release, and sliding it
towards the right hand side and remove
completely.
Remove the damaged light (rotate counter
clockwise) and replace with a new 40 W max

Optional Charcoal Filters
If the model is not vented to the outside, the air will
be recirculated through disposable charcoal filters
that help remove smoke and odors.
The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned.
They must be replaced.
The charcoal filters are clipped inside of each metal
grease filter (mounting instructions included with
charcoal filters kit).
The charcoal filters should be replaced when they
are noticeably dirty or
discolored (usually after 6–12 months, depending
on hood usage).
NOTE: DO NOT rinse, or put charcoal filters in an
automatic dishwasher.
NOTE: Charcoal filters are not
included with the hood.
They must be ordered from your supplier.
Order the needed kit specifying your hood model
and width size.

• L’utilisation continue d’un système de ventilation
lorsque l’on cuisine aide à maintenir la pièce
plus confortable et moins humide.
• Cela diminue aussi les odeurs de cuisine et les
souillures dues à l’humidité qui doivent alors être
fréquemment nettoyées.
• Allumer la hotte avant de commencer à cuisiner.
• Utiliser les éléments de cuisson arrières lorsque
vous faites brunir ou poêler de la viande.
• Ouvrir légèrement une fenêtre ou une porte
intérieure.
• Nettoyerfréquemment les filtres et la partie de mur
se trouvant derrière ceux-ci.
• L’appareil doit être allumé quelques minutes avant
de commencer à cuisiner pour établir un courant
d’airvers la hotte. Ceci afinquelachaleur,lafumée,

la hotte et ne finissent pas dans d’autres pièces.
• Utiliser la puissance minimale pour un usage
normal et la maximale pour de fortes odeurs et
fumées.
• Les courants d’air vont soustraire la chaleur, la
fumée, l’humidité, la graisse et les odeurs de
cuisson à l’action de la hotte. De tels courants d’air
doivent être évités autant que possible.
• Un travail optimal de la hotte est réalisé lorsque le
