IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLATION -
WARNING : TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR PERSONAL INJURY,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1) Installation and electrical wiring must be done by qualified professionals and in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.
2) When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, be careful not to damage electrical wiring or other hidden
utilities.
3) Ducted fans must be vented to the outside.
a) Before servicing or cleaning unit, open the light panel and SWITCH POWER OFF AT SERVICE
PANEL.
b) Clean all grease laden surfaces frequently. To reduce the risk of fire and to disperse air properly,
make sure to vent air outside. DO NOT vent exhaust air into wall spaces, attics, crawl spaces or
garages.
NOTE - This warranty is void without an authorized agent’s receipt or if unit is
damaged due to misuse, poor installation, improper use, mistreatment,
negligence or any other circumstances beyond the control of KOBE
RANGE HOODS authorized agents. Any repair carried out without the
supervision of KOBE RANGE HOODS’ authorized agents will
automatically void the warranty.
- KOBE RANGE HOODS will not be held responsible for any damages to
personal property or real estate or any bodily injuries whether caused
directly or indirectly by the range hood.
WARNING : TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE
TOP GREASE FIRE:
1. Keep all fan, baffle/spacer/filter/oil tunnel/oil container and grease-laden surfaces clean. Grease
should not be allowed to accumulate on fan, baffle/spacer/filter/oil tunnel/oil container.
2. Always turn hood ON when cooking.
3. Use high settings on cooking range ONLY when necessary.
4. Do not leave cooking range unattended when cooking.
5. Always use cookware and utensils appropriate for the type and amount of food prepared.
6. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer.
7. Before servicing, switch power off at service panel and lock service panel (if possible) to prevent
power from switching on accidentally.
8. Clean ventilating fan frequently.

What to Do In The Event Of a Range Top Grease Fire
• SMOTHER FLAMES with a tight fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, and then turn off the burner.
KEEP FLAMMABLE OR COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALAWAY FROM FLAMES. If the flames do not go
out immediately, EVACUATE THE AREAAND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT or 911.
• NEVER PICK UP A BURNING PAN – You May Get Burned.
• DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a steam blast will result.
• 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 thosepublished
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.
5. Due to the size and weight of this hood, installation by 2 persons is recommended.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD – Can result in serious injury or death.
Disconnect appliance from electric power before servicing. If equipped,
the fluorescent light bulb contains small amounts of mercury, which must
be recycled or disposed of according to Local, State, and Federal Codes.

NOTE: TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR HOOD, PREVENT DEBRIS
FROM ENTERING THE VENT OPENING.
Decide the location of the venting pipe from the hood to the
outside. Refer to Figure 1.
A straight, short vent run will allow the hood to perform more
efficiently.
Try to avoid as many transitions, elbows, and long run as
possible. This may reduce the performance of the hood.
Temporarily wire the hood to test for proper operation before
installing.
Important: Peel protective film off the hood, if any.
Use duct tape to seal joints between pipe sections.
CAUTION: If moving the cooking range is necessary to
install the hood, turn off the power in an electric range
at the main electrical box. SHUT OFF THE GAS BEFORE
MOVING A GAS RANGE. And use a protective covering
to protect cooktop and/or countertop from damage.
1. The custom hood frame must be designed according to the
shape and the weight of the hood. Refer to Measurements
and Diagram on Page 13.
2. A sturdy base (3/4 inch thick plywood recommended) is
needed to sustain the weight of hood.
3. It is recommended to install front & rear stud support (not
included). Refer to Figure 2. For safety purposes, extra
installation holes on the side of the hood are provided.
Prepare the side stud support if needed.
4. Determine and mark the centerlines on the base of the wood
frame where the hood will be installed.
5.
Location the proper location for the Power Supply Cable.
Make a wiring access hole using a drill bit. Install the wire
cable and seal the gap around hole.
6. Cut out the opening where the hood will be installed. (Figure
3)
CAUTION: If moving the cooking range is necessary to
install the hood, turn off the power in an electric range
at the main electrical box. SHUT OFF THE GAS BEFORE
MOVING A GAS RANGE.
7. Choose the required vent option. The Round Exhaust Plate
is pre-installed for top vent.
8. For Top 3-1/4” x 10” rectangular installation only:
- Remove the pre-installed Round Exhaust Plate (Refer
to Figure 5). Keep screws to attach Rectangular
Exhaust Plate and Rectangular Exhaust Adapter.
- Place Rectangular Exhaust Plate over vent and secure
with 2 screws (Refer to Figure 6). Place Rectangular
Exhaust Adapter over the Rectangular Exhaust plate
and secure with 10 screws (Refer to Figure 6).
- Use remaining screws to secure exhaust plate.

secure with 2 screws (Refer to Figure 10). Place
Rectangular Exhaust Adapter over the Rectangular
Exhaust Plate and secure with 10 screws (Refer to
Figure 10).
- Use remaining screws to secure exhaust plate.
- Remove the pre-installed Round Exhaust Plate from top
vent and keep screws (Refer to Figure 4). Use the
Round and Rectangular vent covers removed from rear
to seal top vent.
- Remove the 4 screws that secure the blower system
(Refer to Figure 8). Hold the blower to keep it from
dropping as you remove screws. Keep screws to
reattach blower. Slowly rotate blower system to align

MAINTENANCE
For optimal performance, clean the range hood surface and baffles regularly.
To Clean Hood Surface
CAUTION: NEVER USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS, PADS, OR CLOTHS.
*** Regular care will help preserve its fine appearance.
1. Use only mild soap or detergent solutions. Dry surfaces using soft cloth.
2. If hood looks splotchy (stainless steel hood), use a stainless steel cleaner to clean the surface of
the hood. Avoid getting cleaning solution onto or into the control panel. Follow directions of the
stainless steel cleaner. Caution: Do not leave on too long as this may cause damage to hood
finish. Use soft towel to wipe off the cleaning solution, gently rub off any stubborn spots. Use
dry soft towel to dry the hood.
3. DO NOT allow deposits to accumulate or remain on the hood.
4. DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface
and cause rusting.
5. DO NOT allowsalt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain in contact
with stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these compounds contain chemicals, which
may be harmful. Rinse with water after exposure and wipe dry with a clean lint free cloth.
For Baffle Filter models only: to Clean Baffle Filter/Oil Tunnel
CAUTION: DRAIN OIL FROM BAFFLE FILTER & OIL TUNNEL REGULARLY TO PREVENT
OVERFLOW.
1. Remove all the baffle filters, spacers and oil tunnel. Note: Not all models have spacers and oil
tunnels.
2. Using a sponge, wash with warm soapy water. Dry completely before returning into place.
CAUTION: SHARP EDGES (Note: Baffle Filters are top rack dishwasher safe.)
