INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing this cooker hood.
This instruction manual is designed to provide you with all required
instructions related to the installation, use, maintenance, and warranty of the
appliance. Please read this instruction manual carefully before installation
and operating your range hood. This range hood is made from high quality
materials and has a streamlined design. Equipped with a powerful electric
motor and centrifugal fan, your range hood will provide excellent ventilation
and low noise operation.
1. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Intended for Domestic Kitchen Use Only
Warning:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR PERSONAL INJURY,
PLEASE OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1. Installation and electrical work must be done by a qualified TECHNICIAN
in accordance with all applicable codes and standards.
2. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service
agent or a similarly qualified person to avoid a hazard. Do not use an extension cord.
If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install an outlet
near the appliance. Any modifications that may be required to the home’s electrical
system for the installation of the range hood must only be made by qualified
electricians.
3. Before servicing or cleaning unit, unplug or disconnect the range hood from the
power supply to prevent power from being switched on accidentally.
4. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer.
5. Sufficient air is needed for combustion and exhausting of gases through the
chimney of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. 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.
6. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, be careful NOT to Damage
existing electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

4
7. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
9. This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire
with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into outlet that is properly
installed and grounded.
WARNING –Improper grounding can result in a risk of electric shock.
10. To Reduce The Risk Of Fire Or Electric Shock, Do Not Use This Fan With Any
solid- State Speed Control Device.
11. To provide protection against electric shock, connect to properly grounded outlets
only.
CAUTION: To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air
outside - Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics,
crawl spaces, or garages.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
1. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boil overs cause smoking and
greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.
2. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambéing food (i.e.
Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé’).
3. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate
on fan or filter.
4. 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, and then
turn off the burner. 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 –a violent steam explosion
may result.

5
4. ONLY USE AN EXTINGUISHER IF:
• You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you already know how
to operate it.
• The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
• The fire department is being called.
• You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
CAUTION: For General Ventilating Use Only. Do Not Use To Exhaust Hazardous
Or Explosive Materials And Vapors.

3. INSTALLATION (Before You Start...)
1. Read this manual carefully and completely.
2. Chambers® range hoods conform to cETLus standards. Check your
local building codes for any additional requirements.
3. The appliance has been manufactured as Class I, therefore a ground
connection is necessary. A 120V power cord with plug is provided. The
range hood must be installed so that the electrical outlet is easily
accessible with the chimney in place.
4. This appliance has been designed for use in both ducted and recirculating
modes, follow the appropriate installation method. (For recirculation mode
a kit is required –not included. Contact Chambers® to determine if a kit is
available for your hood.)
5. Your cooker hood can be exhausted as below by means of an
extraction duct (enamel, aluminum, flexible pipe or inflammable
material with an interior diameter of 6”) or a recirculating kit
(see section 6.)
6. Before installation, turn the unit off and unplug it from the outlet.

7. For models with LED Panel Lighting, do not install the range hood less
than 30 inches from the cooking surface (Fig C.) to avoid potential
safety hazards.
4. INSTALLATION (EXTERIOR VENTILATION):
When the range hood is in operation, the negative pressure in the room must
-5
not exceed 4 Pa (4×10 Bar)
1. Drill 3x8mm holes to accommodate the body bracket. Fasten the
bracket onto the wall with the screws and screw plugs provided. Ensure
that you affix the bracket to a wall stud or mounting plate.

14
8. TEMPERATURE CONTROL INTELLIGENT MODE
The default setting for the heat sensor is “ACTIVE”
1. When the heat sensor is in ACTIVE mode you will not need to press any buttons
to activate the fan unless you wish to.
2. In ACTIVE mode, when the cooking temperature reaches the high limit threshold,
the buzzer will sound, the fan will be turned on at medium speed, and the lights
will turn on. When the cooking temperature drops below the high limit threshold,
the buzzer will sound and all functions (including the lights) will be turned off.
3. When in active mode, all the buttons can be operated normally. If you operate
the range hood manually, the buzzer will sound once, exit ACTIVE mode, and
enter the corresponding functional state.
4. The position of the heat sensor must be installed above a heat source. If the
distance from the heat source is too large, the temperature control function may
not function correctly. For best results do not install the range hood higher than
30” from the cooktop.
Factors that can affect the function of the heat sensor
1. Wind
2. Cold water has just been added to your pot or pan
3. Low heat
4. The Heat Sensor is covered with grease

15
9. MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning, switch the unit off and disconnect the electrical supply.
I. Regular Cleaning
Use a soft cloth moistened with hand-warm mildly soapy water or household
cleaning detergent. Never use metal pads, chemical, abrasive material or stiff brush
to clean the unit.
II. Monthly Cleaning for Grease Filter
ESSENTIAL: Cleaning the filters every month can prevent risk of fire.
The filters collect grease, smoke and dust. If they are not cleaned regularly, the
grease residue (potentially flammable) will saturate the filter and cause a reduction
in airflow. Clean it with household cleaning detergent.
III. Annual Cleaning for Activated Carbon Filter
This applies SOLELY to units that have been installed with a recirculating kit (no
exterior ventilation.) This filter traps odors and must be replaced at least once a year
depending on how frequently the cooker hood used.
IV. Heat Sensor
Make sure to clean the heat sensor regularly to ensure correct operation.
