What to Do in the Event of a Range Top Grease Fire
1. SMOTHER FLAMES with a tight fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, and then turn off the burner.
KEEP FLAMMABLE OR COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL AWAY FROM FLAMES. If the flames do
not go out immediately, EVACUATE THE AREA AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT or 911.
2. NEVER PICK UP A BURNING PAN –You May Get Burned.
3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels –a steam blast will result.
4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
a. You have a Class A, B, C extinguisher and know how to operate it.
b. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
c. The fire department has been called.
d. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
What to Do If You Smell Gas
1. Extinguish any open flame.
2. Do not try to turn on the lights or any type of appliance.
3. Open all doors and windows to disperse the gas. If you still smell gas, call the Gas Company and
Fire Department right away.
CAUTION
1. For general ventilation use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and
vapors.
2. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion
and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) to prevent back drafting.
3. 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 code authorities.
4. Activating any switch on may cause ignition or an explosion.

3. If you run into any problems, contact KOBE Range Hoods.
Venting Requirements
4. The range hood has top 6” round exhaust (default).
5. Decided the location of the venting pipe from the hood to the outside. A straight, short vent run
will allow the hood to perform more efficiently. Try to avoid elbows, transitions, and long run as
much as possible as this may reduce the performance of the hood. Make sure that the duct work
leads to the outside.
6. It is recommended to use metal/aluminum duct/pipe with a uniform size (ex. 6” round pipe from
range hood to the outside).

5
7. If an elbow is necessary, a minimum of 12” straight run is necessary before the elbow.
Clearance
8. Clearance is the distance between the cooktop and the bottom of the range hood. The
recommended minimum clearance for this model is 26” and the maximum clearance is 30”.
9. It is important to install the hood at the recommended clearance. Installing too low could result in
damage and/or fire hazard while installing too high may result in reduced performance and
efficiently.
Hood Installation
10. Prepare back wall frame with cross framing lumber for
secure installation if necessary. Using references on
TABLE 1 and measurements on page XX to decide the
level of the lumber. Refer to Figure 1.
11. Mark the leveling point of the hood. Position two 4*35
screws on the wall, leaving 1/8” away from the wall as
