Venting Requirements
Vent system must terminate to the outside (roof or side wall).
DO NOT terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area.
DO NOT use 4” (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps.
Use metal/aluminum vent only. Rigid metal/aluminum vent is recommended.
DO NOT use plastic vent.
Always keep the duct clean to ensure proper airflow.
Calculate the following figures before installation:
For the most efficient & quiet operation:
A distance of 28”to 31” is recommended between stove top and the bottom of
range hood.
It is recommended that the range hood be vented vertically through the roof
through 6” (15.2 cm) or bigger round metal/aluminum vent work.
Use no more than thr ee 90° elbows.
Make sure there is a minim um of 24” (61 cm) of straight vent between the elbows
if more than one elbow is used.
DO NOT install two elbows together.
The length of vent system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to
provide effcient performance.
The vent system must have a damper. If roof or wall cap has a damper, DO NOT use
Use silver tape or duct tape to seal all joints in the vent system.
Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.

Trouble shooting
If the range hood or LED light does not work after installation
• Check if the range hood has been plugged in, make sure that all
power has been turned back ON, fused not blown and all electrical
wiring are properly connected.
• Swap out light assembly to working ones to determine whether it is
caused by defective bulbs. See replacing the bulbs on Page 23.
The range hood vibrates when the blower is on
• The range hood might not have been secured properly on to the ceiling or
wall. Check with your installer.
The blower or fan seems weak
• Check that the duct sized used is at least 6”or 3-1/4 × 10".
Range hood WILL NOT function effciently with insufficient duct size.
For example: 8" duct over 6” hole and loosely secured.
• Check if duct is clogged or if damper unit (half-circular flapper) is not installed
correctly or opening properly. A tight mesh on a side wall cap unit might also
cause restriction to the airflow.
The lights work but the blower is not spinning at all, is stuck or is rattling.
The blower might be jammed or scraping the bottom due to shipping damage.
Please contact us immediately.
The hood is not venting out properly.
• Make sure the distance between the stove top and the bottom of the
hood is within * 28” and 31” in distance. Due to different ceiling height
configurations, recommended height may not be applicable.
• 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.
Purpose of the slots/holes/openings near the top of the upper chimney:
• These slots/holes/openings are used to exhaust cleaned air with optional
re-circulating kit. If you did not install one, you do not need them.
NOTE: For all other inquiries, please contact your local reseller.

Use and Care Information
Operations
Read and understand all instructions and warnings in this manual before
operating the appliance. Save these instructions for future reference.
Always leave safety grills and filters in place. Without these components,
operating blowers could catch on to hair, fingers and loose clothing.
NEVER dispose cigarette ashes ignitable substances, or any foreign objects
into blowers.
NEVER leave cooking unattended. When frying, oil in the pan can easily
overheat and catch fire. The risk of self-combustion is higher when the oil has
been used several times.
NEVER cook on "open "flames under the range hood. Check deep-fryers during use:
Superheated oil may be flammable.
Cleaning
The saturation of greasy residue in the blower and filters may cause increased
inflammability. Keep unit clean and free of grease and residue build-up at all
times to prevent possible fires.
Filters must be cleaned periodically and free from accumulation of cooking
Do not operate blowers when filters are removed. Never disassemble parts
performed by qualified personnel only Read and underst and all instructions
