IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE YOU START
INSTALLING THIS RANGE HOOD
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 setting.
b) Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes
Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
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 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.
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 exit.
* Based on "Kitchen Firesafety Tips" published by NFPA
WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, do not use this fan with
any solid-state speed control device.
WARNING -TOREDUCE THERISKOF FIRE,ELECTRICALSHOCK,ORINJURYTOPERSONS,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have any questions,
contact the manufacturer.
2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock the 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.
CAUTION: For General Ventilating Use Only. Do Not Use To Exhaust Hazardous or Explosive
Materials and Vapors.
WARNING -TOREDUCE THERISKOF FIRE,ELECTRICALSHOCK,ORINJURYTOPERSONS,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1. InstallationWorkAndElectricalWiringMustBeDoneByQualifiedPerson(s)InAccordance
With All Applicable Codes And Standards, Including Fire-Rated Construction.
2. 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 guideline and safety standards such as those published by
the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for Heating,

4
RefrigerationandAirConditioningEngineers (ASHRAE),andthelocal codeauthorities.
3. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other
hidden utilities.
4. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
ALL WALL AND FLOOR OPENINGS WHERE THE RANGE HOOD IS INSTALLED MUST BE
SEALED.
This Range Hood requires at least 35" of clearance between the bottom of the Range Hood
and the cooking surface or countertop. This hood has been approved by UL at this distance
from the cooktop.
Consult the cooktop or range installation instructions given by the manufacturer before making
any cutouts. MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION The installation of this Range Hood must conform
totheManufacturedHomeConstructionandSafetyStandards,Title24CFR,Part3280 (formerly
Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD, Part 280).
Attention: This hood has been engineered to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI)
originating from the consumer's home power source. However, in some home application,
ambient EMI and excessive EMI from other electronic sources can compromise the reliability
of the remote control.
Please speak with your Faber Distributor about an optional spare part to further reduce EMI
from home sources.
VENTING REQUIREMENTS
Determine which venting method is best for your application. Ductwork can extend either
through the wall or the roof.
The length of the ductwork and the number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide
efficient performance. The size of the ductwork should be uniform. Do not install two elbows
together. Use duct tape to seal all joints in the ductwork system. Use caulking to seal exterior
walls and ceiling space opening around the cap.
Flexible ductwork is not recommended. Flexible ductwork creates back pressure and air
turbulence that greatly reduces performance.
Make sure there is proper clearance within the walls and ceiling space for exhaust duct before
making cutouts. Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist or stud must
be cut, then a supporting frame must be constructed.
WARNING - To Reduce The Risk Of Fire, Use Only Metal Ductwork.
CAUTION - To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside – Do
notventexhaustairintospaceswithinwallsorceilingsorintoattics,crawlspaces,orgarages.
WARNING: To Reduce The Risk Of Fire, Electric Shock Or Injury To Persons, Do Not Use
Replacement Parts That Have Not Been Recommended By The Manufacturer (e.g. Parts
Made At Home Using A 3D Printer).
Cold Weather installations
An additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a
nonmetallic thermal break should be installed to minimize conduction of outside temperatures
as part of the vent system. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break.
The break should be as close as possible to where the vent system enters the heated portion
of the house.

To determine the length of the 4 mounting bolts:
Measure the total distance between the ceiling mounting area and the bottom
of the hood / where the ceiling begins.
Subtract 4 1/2" (5 1/16" - 9/16") from the total distance to determine the
correct length. Trim the excess length of the bolts.
For example if 13" is between the mounting area and the ceiling , 13" - 4 1/2" =
8 1/2" would be the total length needed for the bolts.
