SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Warning! To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, always
exercise basic safety precautions, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this user manual.
3. Do not use any accessories not recommended by the manufacturer.
4. This unit must be grounded.
5. Do not use this appliance for commercial uses.
6. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified technicians in
accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.
7. Sufficient air is needed for proper exhausting of gases of fuel-burning equipment
through the flue (chimney) 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 local code authorities.
8. When replacing an existing range hood with your new Haier Range Hood,
turn OFF the electrical power to the existing unit before removal.
9. Before servicing or cleaning the unit, turn the power OFF at the service panel and if
possible, lock the service panel to prevent power from being switched on accidentally.
If the service panel cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning
device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
10. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing.
Note: If for any reason this product requires service, we strongly recommend that a
certified technician perform the service.
11. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, be careful not to damage existing
electrcal wiring and other hidden utilities.
12. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF RANGE TOP GREASE FIRES:
1. 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.
2. Always turn the hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing foods (i.e.
Crepes, Suzette, Cherries Jubilee. Peppercorn Beef Flambe).

Installation Preparation
To install this range hood, you will need the following tools and materials:
Note: This procedure will require 2 people for easier installation.
Tools Needed for Installation
• Drill
• 1/8" Drill bit for drilling pilot holes
• 1-1/4" Wood bit for drilling electrical wiring access hole
• 3/8" Nut Driver or Ratchet with Extension
• Phillips head screwdriver
• Flat-head screwdriver
• Pliers
• Pencil, ruler and level for marking range hood location
• Hand saw or jig saw for cutting the wall or cabinet openings
• Duct tape
• Electrical tape
• Connector Clamp
General Preparation
Caution! Please be sure to turn the electrical power switch OFF before beginning
the installation.
1. Remove the range hood from the carton.
2. Lay the range hood upside down on a table covered with either cardboard or paper
to prevent scratching the hood or table.
3. Remove the 2 grease filters from the hood. Place them somewhere safe so they will
not be damaged.
4. Install two 40 Watt light bulbs.
5. Turn the hood right side up so you can see the duct knockouts and mounting holes.

Cabinet Preparation for Hood Support
Mount the hood so that the bottom of the hood is between 24"-30" above the stovetop.
Warning! When cutting or drilling into wall or cabinet, be careful not to cut
existing electrical wiring.
1. If the bottom of the cabinet is recessed above the bottom of the cabinet door, then it
is necessary to install wood strips on each side of the recessed area on the bottom of the
cabinet where the range hood will be mounted. The wood strips should line up with the
4 keyhole slots on the top of the range hood. Fasten the wood strips with wood screws
about 3" in from each end.
Note: The thickness of the wood strips should be slightly more than the recessed
dimension. The length should be cut to size.
2. Measure and mark the electrical wiring opening in the wall or the cabinet. If the hood is
to be vented, also mark and measure the duct opening in the wall or cabinet.
Vertical Discharge – Vertical discharge is the only method of hood installation. If your
kitchen has an attic space above, the ducting may be run through the cabinet and the
attic to a roof cap. Another option, if your kitchen has a soffit above the cabinet, is to
run the duct up into the soffit and then discharge the air horizontally through the outside
wall to a wall cap.
Ductless – In ductless installations, air is vented back into the kitchen through the
opening in the range hood grille. If you do not anticipate heavy cooking, this method may
be preferable. Ductless installation requires the use of a charcoal filters (included) to
remove odors, which should be replaced at regular intervals depending on use. Check
with your local retailer or dealer for replacements.
Note: This charcoal filter is not dishwasher safe!
Preparation of Electrical Connections
Note: If replacing an existing hood, the electrical cable may need to be re-routed to
the desired position.
1. Determine the location of the electrical cable to connect to the range hood. The
preferred location for the electrical connector, vertical or horizontal, will depend on
the existing installation or ease of routing wiring. All electrical connections must comply
with national and local codes. Transfer the location of the selected range hood
knockouts to the bottom of the cabinet or onto the wall, then cut or drill a hole to
allow for clearance of the electrical cable clamp. Be careful not to cut into any hidden
utilities, such as electrical wires.

5. Attach the ducting to the hood.
6. Temporarily mount the stainless steel chimmey and mark the top.
7. Attach the mounting clamp to the wall with supplied screws.
8. Connect the chimmey to the mounting clamp.

Use and Care
Aluminum Filter
For highest efficiency, this filter should be removed and cleaned periodically. Soak the filter
in hot water and mild soap or detergent. Rinse thoroughly and repeat if necessary.
The aluminum filter may be cleaned in the dishwasher. Heavy grease buildup may not
be cleaned easily, thus the filter may need to be replaced.
Charcoal Filter
Inspect this filter periodically. This filter cannot be cleaned and must be replaced when
it becomes saturated. Check with your local retailer or dealer to purchase.
Light Bulb
Use only Halogen MR-16 type bulbs. (Not shipped with range hood.)
Exterior Surface
Wipe the range hood exterior with a soft cloth and a mild detergent suitable for painted
surfaces. Do NOT use abrasive materials such as steel wool pads or scouring powders.
Repair or Replacement Parts
WARNING! Disconnect range hood from the electrical power supply before servicing.
All parts may be obtained from service centers authorized by Haier, or may be
ordered directly from Haier. When ordering parts, please specify the range hood model
number on the rating label, which is located on the inside of the range hood.
