Reusable Metal Grease Filters
The hood has 2 metal reusable
grease filters.
The metal filters trap grease released
by foods on the cooktop. They also
help prevent flaming foods on the
cooktop from damaging the inside
of the hood.
For this reason, the filters must
ALWAYS be in place when the hood
is used. The grease filters should
be cleaned once a month, or
as needed.
To remove, press the filter locks
back and pull the filters down
and out.
To replace, insert the rear filter tabs
in the frame slots at the back of the
opening. Push the filters up and lock
them into place.
To clean the grease filters, soak
them and then swish them around
in hot water and detergent.
Don’t use ammonia or ammonia
products because they will darken
the metal. Do not use abrasives or
oven cleaners. Light brushing can
be used to remove embedded dirt.
Rinse, shake and let them dry before
replacing. They may also be cleaned
in an automatic dishwasher.
NOTE: Before cleaning, make sure the
charcoal filters, if present, are unclipped and
removed. See the Charcoal Filters section.
If it ever becomes necessary to replace
the metal grease filters, they may be
ordered from your GE supplier.

To clean the hood surface, use a hot,
damp cloth with a mild detergent
suitable for painted surfaces. Use a
clean, hot, damp cloth to remove soap.
Dry with a dry, clean cloth.
Do not use steel-wool pads or other
abrasive cleaners. They will scratch
the surface. Wipe with a clean, hot,
damp cloth after using cleansers.
Painted Surfaces (on some models)
Do not use a steel-wool pad; it will
scratch the surface.
Shake bottle well.
Place a small amount of CERAMA
BRYTE®Stainless Steel Cleaning
Polish and Conditioner on a dry
cloth or dry paper towel.
Clean a small area (approximately
8” x 8”/20.3 cm x 20.3 cm),
rubbing with the grain of the
stainless steel if applicable.
Dry and buff with a clean, dry paper
towel or soft cloth.
Repeat as necessary.
Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)
This hood requires two bulbs (not
included), maximum 50 watts.
Purchase and install PAR20, 50 W
Maximum halogen bulbs.
When replacing a bulb, let it cool first.
Make sure that power to the light has
been turned off. Never allow a hot bulb
to come into contact with water.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
electric shock, do not connect electrical power to
the hood without both bulbs in place.
To change the light bulbs:
Grasp the bulb on the edges and
unscrew it.
Replace with the same size bulb.
CAUTION:
■ Do not touch the hood light bulbs when they
are on. They may be hot enough to cause
injury.
■ The light bulbs operate at extremely high
temperatures. If they shatter, the hot glass
could cause personal injury.
Hood Lights
NOTE: Charcoal filters are not
included with the hood. They
must be ordered from your
GE supplier.
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 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.
Charcoal Filters (on some models)
The charcoal filters
cannot be cleaned.
They must be replaced.
For 30 ” (76.2 cm) hood
models, order
Kit no. WB02X11000.
For 36 ” (91.4 cm) hood
models, order
Kit no. WB02X11001.
These kits can be ordered
from your GE supplier.
The charcoal filters are clipped inside
of each reusable metal grease filter.

Read these instructions completely and carefully.
•IMPORTANT – Save these
instructions for local inspector’s use.
•IMPORTANT – Observe all
governing codes and ordinances.
•Note to Installer – Be sure to leave these
instructions with the Consumer.
•Note to Consumer – Keep these instructions
for future reference.
• Skill level – Installation of this appliance requires
basic mechanical and electrical skills.
• Completion time – 1–3 hours
•Proper installation is the responsibility of the
installer.
•Product failure due to improper installation is not
covered under the Warranty.
•Use only with approved cord kit, JXHC1.
NOTE: Read the ductwork sections only if you do not
have existing ductwork. If you have existing ductwork,
skip to the “Damage” section and proceed.
The venting system must exhaust to the outside.
This hood can be vented vertically through upper
cabinets or horizontally through an outside wall.
Ductwork is not included.
Exhaust connection:
The hood exhaust has been designed to mate with
standard 3¼” x 10” rectangular ducting or 7” diameter
round ducting.
If a 6” round duct is required, a rectangular-to-round
transition adaptor must be used*. Do not use less than
a 6”diameter duct.
Maximum duct length:
For satisfactory air movement, the total duct length
of a 3¼” x 10” rectangular, 6” or 7” diameter round
duct should not exceed 65 equivalent feet.
NOTE: It’s important that ducting be installed using
the most direct route and with as few elbows as possible.
This ensures clear venting of exhaust and helps prevent
blockages. Also, make sure dampers swing freely and
nothing is blocking the ducts.
Elbows, transitions, wall and roofcaps, etc.,
present additional resistance to airflow and are
equivalent to a section of straight duct longer than their
actual physical size. When calculating the total duct
length, add the equivalent lengths of all transitions and
adaptors plus the length of all straight duct sections. The
charts on the following pages show you how to calculate
total equivalent ductwork length using the approximate
feet of equivalent length of some typical ducts.
* IMPORTANT: If a rectangular-to-
round transition adaptor is used, the
bottom corners of the damper will
have to be cut to fit, using the tin
snips, in order to allow free
movement of the damper.
Equivalent lengths of duct pieces
are based on actual tests and reflect
requirements for good venting
performance with any hood.
DUCTWORK REQUIREMENTS
WARNING – Before beginning the
installation, 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.
