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.
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 FIRE,
ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE
THE FOLLOWING:
A. Installation work and electrical wiring must be
done by qualified person(s) in accordance
with all applicable codes and standards,
including fire-rated construction.
B. Sufficient air is needed for proper
combustion and exhausting of gases through
the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment
to prevent back drafting. 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, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code
authorities.
C. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling,
do not damage electrical wiring and other
hidden utilities.
D. Ducted fans must always be vented to the
outdoors.
WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,

Always turn hood ON when cooking at high
heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes
Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef
Flambé).

Using the hood controls.
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 odours 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 upward
through the hood. Thus when heat, smoke, moisture,
grease and cooking odoursare 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 odours or fumes.
•Drafts across the range or cooktop will cause the escape
of heat, smoke, moisture, grease and cooking odours
from the hood. Such drafts should be prevented as
much as possible.
•Kitchen ventilation ventilation is best when 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 of the vent hood. www.GEAppliances.ca
The efficiency of the range hood system depends on the cleanliness of the intake and filters.
The frequency of cleaning required 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.
These hoods have reusable metal
grease filters and drip trays. The
metal filters also help prevent
flaming foods on the cooktop from
damaging the inside of the hood.
For this reason, the metal filters
must ALWAYS be in place when the
hood is used.
To Clean Filters and Drip Trays
•The metal filters and drip trays
should be cleaned once a month,
or as needed.
• To clean the metal filters and
drip trays, drain and wipe all
excess grease with a dry paper
towel. 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. Rinse, shake and let the
filters and drip trays dry before
replacing. They may also be
cleaned in an automatic
dishwasher.
To Remove the Metal Grease Filters
and Drip Trays
• Turn the fan and lights off.
• Push each handle towards the
back and pull downwards. Fig. 1
• Unscrew the knobs that secure the
drip tray holding brackets. Fig. 3
• Grasp the drip tray and carefully
lift it up and out of the hood
track. Fig. 2
To Replace The Metal Grease Filters
• Reverse above procedure.
To Replace the Drip Trays - Figures 2-3
Place and seat the drip tray
into the hood track.
Slide trays left or right until all
trays are side by side in place
in the track.
Firmly secure the drip trays
with the the drip tray holding
brackets.
Filters and Drip Trays
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.

INSTALLING THE HOOD
• For the most efficient air flow exhaust, use a straight
run or as few elbows as possible.
CAUTION! Vent unit to outside of building only.
• One person is necessary for installation.
On average 2 hours are necessary to complete
installation (not including cut to be made in wall
and/or cabinet, installation of ducts, conduit and
electrical connections to the mains).
Installation steps:
12 installation steps are required for both installation
methods: wall mount or in alternative cabinet installation
• The hood is fitted with screws and drywall anchors
suitable for most surfaces. Consult a qualified installer
to check if they perfectly fit with your cabinet/wall.
• Do not use flex ducting.
• COLD WEATHER installations should have an
additional backdraft damper installed to minimize
backward cold air flow and a non metallic thermal
break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures
as part of the ductwork. The damper should be on the
cold air side of the thermal break.
The break should be as close as possible to where the
ducting enters the heated portion of the house.
• Make up air: local building codes may require the use of
make-Up air systems when using ducted ventilation
systems greater than specified CFM of air movement. The
specified CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your
HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area.

For safety reasons, ducting should vent directly outdoors
(not into an attic, underneath the house, into the
garage or into any enclosed space).
Keep duct runs as short and straight as possible.
Duct fittings (elbows and transitions) reduce air flow
efficiency.
Back to back elbows and “S” turns give very poor
delivery and are not recommended.
A short straight length of duct at the inlet of the remote
blower gives the best delivery.
Transition to duct from the integral blower or remote
duct transition as close to the downdraft as possible.
In order of preference, use:
1st. 10” round duct
2nd. 8” round duct
3rd. 3¼" x 14” duct
4th. 7” round duct
5th. 3¼” x l0” duct
6th. 6” round duct
Flexible metal round duct should only be used when no
other duct fitting exists. Limit use to short lengths and
do not crush when making corners.
After having choosen the vent option:
1. Prepare duct and conduit cutouts, see Fig. 1, 2, 3 as
needed.
