EXHAUST VENTING
Ducted mode air exhaust system
Caution: To reduce the risk of re, use metal duct work only.
1. Decide where the duct work will run
between the hood and the outside.
2. A straight, short duct run will allow the
hood to perform most efciently.
3. Long duct runs, elbows, and
transitions will reduce the performance
of the hood. Use as few of them
as possible. Larger ducting may be
required for best performance with
longer duct runs.
4. Attach an adequate length of 15 cm
round duct to the air outlet adapter
(Not supplied).
5. The air must not be discharge into a
ue that is used for exhausting fumes
from appliances burning gas or other

MainTenance
Prior to any maintenance operation ensure that the range hood is discon-
nected from the power supply.
Cleaning Exterior Surfaces:
- The range hood should be cleaned regularly internally and externally.
- Clean periodically with hot soapy water and clean cotton cloth. Do not
use corrosive or abrasive detergent (e.g. Comet Power Scrub , EASY-
OFF oven cleaner), or steel wool/scoring pads, which will scratch and
damage the stainless steel surface.
- For heavier dirt use a liquid degreaser.
- After cleaning, you may use a non-abrasive stainless steel polish/
cleaner to polish and buff out the stainless luster and grain. Always
rub lightly with a clean cotton cloth, and go with the grain.

18
Cleaning Aluminum Grease Filter/Stainless Steel Filter-less Grill:
- The metal lters tted by the factory are intended to lter out residue
and grease from cooking. It need not be replaced on a regular basis
but must be kept clean.
- This must be cleaned once a month using non-abrasive detergents,
either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set at a low
temperature on a short cycle.
- When washed in a dishwasher, the grease lter may discolour
slightly, but this does not affect its ltering ability.
- Dry lters and re-install before using hood.
WARNING: FAILURE TO CARRY OUT THE BASIC STANDARDS
OF CLEANING OF THE RANGE HOOD AND REPLACEMENT
OF THE FILTERS MAY CAUSE FIRE RISKS. WE THEREFORE
RECOMMEND THAT YOU FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
Replacing Filters:
- Should lters wear out due to age or prolonged use, replace with an
aluminum grease lter (with stainless steel clips).
- Note: Also replace a damaged lter that has punctures or a bent or
broken frame.

TroubleshooTing
1. If the range hood does not operate after installation:
- Check if all power has been turned back on and all electrical wiring
is properly connected.
- Check that the power connection for the unit is properly connected.
- Make sure the wiring between the switch board and control board
are connected properly.
2. The range hood vibrates when the blower is on:
- The range hood might not have been secured properly to the wall.
- Check if the motor is secured in place. If not, then tighten the motor
in place.
- Check if there is a damaged blower wheel. If so, change the blower
wheel.
3. The blowers seems weak:
- Check that the duct size used is at least 15.2 cm (6 in.). Range
hood WILL NOT function efciently with insufcient duct size.
- Check if duct is clogged or if damper unit is not opening properly. A
tight mesh on a side wall cap unit might also restrict air ow.
4. The lights work but the blower is not spinning, is stuck or is
rattling:
- The blower might be jammed or scraping the bottom.
- The motor is defective, possibly seized - change the motor.
- The thermal protection system detects if the motor is too hot to
operate and shuts the motor down. In this case the motor will
function properly after the thermal protection system cools down
(approx. 20 min.).
5. The hood is not venting properly:
- Make sure the distance between the cook top and the bottom of
the hood is between 46 cm (18 in) for electric ranges and 75 cm
(29.5 in) for gas ranges.
- Reduce the number of elbows and length of duct work. Check if
all joints are properly connected, sealed and taped.
- Make sure the power is on high speed for heavy cooking.
- Wind from opened windows or doors in the surrounding area are
affecting the ventilation of the hood. Close all windows and doors
to eliminate the outside air ow.
- Check if the direction of duct opening is against the wind. If so,
adjust the direction of the duct opening.
- Check if the wrong size of ducts are being used.
