SAFETY AND WARNINGS
– When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and
other hidden utilities.
– Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
– This unit must be grounded.
CAUTION: To reduce the 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.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this fan with
any solid-state speed control device.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of a range top grease fire:
– 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.
– Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambéing food
(ieCrepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé)
– Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate
on fan or filter.
– 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*:
– 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.
– Never pick up a flaming pan — you may be burned.
– Do not use water, including wet dishcloths or towels — a violent steam explosion
will result.
– Use an extinguisher only 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.

INSTALLATION PREPARATION
Range hood width
 The range hood width is recommended to be no less than the width of the cooktop.
 A wider range hood can be used to increase the capture area if space is not restricted.
 The range hood should ideally be centered above the cooktop for proper performance.
Determine installation location
WARNING!
 To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
 Do not use flexible ducting.
This range hood can be installed using a wall
mounting system or be suspended under cabinetry.
Ducting can be configured for both vertical and
horizontal discharge. The ducting can terminate
either through the roof or wall. To vent through the
wall a 90° elbow is needed.
Height of the range hood
The installation height ranges from a minimum height of 30” (762mm) to a maximum
recommended height of 42” (1067mm). Consult the cooktop installation and user guide
for details of the required installation height of the range hood.
This range hood must be installed no lower than the
minimum height indicated in the table below. Minimum
installation height may be greater if required by the
cooktop manufacturer. Installation at the minimum
height will improve the efficiency of capturing cooking
odors, grease and smoke. Installation at the maximum
recommended height improves user ergonomics by
offering increased head room.
IMPORTANT!
 Always switch your range hood on when you are cooking.
 Using a powerful gas cooktop or multiple gas burners
operating at the same time can cause the range hood
surfaces to become hot, this effect can be reduced by:
– Using the maximum speed setting to enable hot
air to be extracted quickly.
– Installing the range hood at the maximum
recommended height. Consult the cooktop
installation and user guide for details on the
installation height of the range hood.

INSTALLATION PREPARATION
Calculating the installation height
Installation height for a standard 96” (2438mm) high kitchen ceiling is shown below.
Use the following formula to calculate installation height:
A = W – (X + Y+Z)
Where:
A = Installation height
W= Ceiling height
X = Cooktop surface height
Y = Range hood height
Z = Duct cover height (if desired)
Example: (A) Installation height = 96” – (36”+ 18” + 12”) = 30”
Example: (A) Installation height = 2438mm – (914mm + 457mm + 305mm) = 762mm
