TO REDUCETHE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK OR INJURY TO PERSONS,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have questions, contact
the manufacturer at the address or telephone
number listed in the warranty.
2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch
power off at service panel and lock service
disconnecting means to prevent power from
being switched on accidentally. When the
service disconnecting means cannot be locked,
securely fasten a prominent warning device,
such as a tag, to the service panel.
3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be
done by qualified personnel in accordance with
all applicable codes and standards, including
fire-rated construction codes and standards.
4. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion
and exhausting of gases through the flue
(chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent
backdrafting. 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
the local code authorities.
5. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not
damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
6. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
7. Do not use this unit with any additional
solid-state speed control device.
8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal
ductwork.
9. This unit must be grounded and protected by a
GFCI.
10. Suitable for use in damp locations only when
installed in a GFCI PROTECTED branch-circuit.
11. This unit is not designed to be used with a
charcoal grill.
12. When applicable local regulations comprise
more restrictive installation and/or certification
requirements, the aforementioned requirements
prevail on those of this document and the installer
agrees to conform to these at his own expense.
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) Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat
or when flambeing food (i.e.: Crêpes Suzette,
Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
c) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should
not be allowed to accumulate on fan, filters or in
exhaust ducts.
d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the surface element.
1. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to
exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and
vapors.
2. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/
or unbalanced impellers, keep drywall spray,
construction dust, etc. off power unit.
3. Your hood motor has a thermal overload
which will automatically shut off the motor if
it becomes overheated. The motor will restart
when it cools down. If the motor continues to
shut off and restart, have the hood serviced.
4. For best capture of cooking impurities, the
bottom of the hood must be located at a minimum
distance of 36” above cooking surface.
5. Two installers are recommended because of
the large size and weight of this hood.
6. To reduce the risk of fire and to properly
exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside — Do
not exhaust air into spaces within walls or
ceiling or into attics, crawl space or garage.
7. This product is equipped with a thermostat
which may start blower automatically. To reduce
the risk of injury and to prevent power from
being switched on accidentally, switch power off
at service panel and lock or tag service panel.
8. Please read specification label on product for
further information and requirements.
WARNING
CAUTION
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO
PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP
GREASE FIRE,OBSERVETHE FOLLOWING*:

WARNING
!
Do not touch lamps during or soon after operation. Burns may occur. In order to
prevent the risk of personal injury, only install shielded halogen lamps. Also,
never install a cool beam, a dichroic lamp, a lamp not suitable for use in recessed
luminaires or identified for use in enclosed fixtures.
13. CARE
Baffle Filters
The baffle filters should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm detergent solution. Wash more often if your
cooking style generates greater grease like frying foods or wok cooking.
Remove baffle filters by pushing them towards the front of the hood and rotating filters downward.
Baffle filters are dishwasher safe. Allow filters to dry completely before reinstalling them in the hood.
Clean all-metal filters in the dishwasher using a non-phosphate detergent. Discoloration of the filter may
occur if using phosphate detergent or as a result of local water conditions—but this will not affect filter
performance. This discoloration is not covered by the warranty.
Grease Drip Rail
The grease drip rail should be cleaned frequently. Lift it out from the hood and use a warm detergent
solution. As for the baffle filters, wash more often if your cooking style generates greater grease like
frying foods or wok cooking. Allow grease drip rail to dry completely before reinstalling it in the hood.
Hood cleaning
Stainless steel cleaning:
Do:
• Regularly wash with clean cloth or rag soaked
with warm water and mild soap or liquid dish
detergent.
• Always clean in the direction of original polish
lines.
• Always rinse well with clear water (2 or 3
times) after cleaning. Wipe dry completely.
• You may also use a specialized household
stainless steel cleaner.
Don’t:
• Use any steel or stainless steel wool or any
other scrapers to remove stubborn dirt.
• Use any harsh or abrasive cleansers.
• Allow dirt to accumulate.
• Let plaster dust or any other construction
residues reach the hood. During construction/
renovation, cover the hood to make sure no
dust sticks to stainless steel surface.
Avoid when choosing a detergent:
- Any cleaners that contain bleach will attack stainless steel.
- Any products containing: chloride, fluoride, iodide, bromide will deteriorate surfaces rapidly.
- Any combustible products used for cleaning such as acetone, alcohol, ether, benzol, etc., are
highly explosive and should never be used close to a range.
10
14. OPERATION
BLOWER
A rotary 4-position knob (1) controls the blower (OFF - Low - Medium - High).
Turn the speed control knob clockwise to increase blower speed – counterclockwise to decrease speed.
COOKTOP LIGHTING (HALOGEN)
Use the on/off rocker switch (2) to turn the halogen lights ON or OFF.
HEAT SENTRY™
This hood is equipped with a Heat Sentry™ thermostat. This thermostat is a device that will turn on the
blower if it senses excessive heat above the cooking surface.
1) If blower is OFF - it turns blower ON to medium speed.
2) If blower is already ON speed will remain the same.
When the temperature level drops to normal, the blower will return to its original setting.
WARNING
!
The HEAT SENTRY can start the blower during a range top fire or other excessive
heat situations even if the hood is turned off. In this case, it is impossible to turn
the blower OFF using control panel switch. To stop the blower, do it from the main
electrical panel.
