Important Safety Notice
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLING AND OPERATING
THIS APPLIANCE
• The installation in this manual is intended for qualied
installers, service technicians or persons with similar qualied
background. Installation and electrical wiring must be
done by qualied professionals and in accordance with
all applicable codes and standards, including re-rated
construction.
• DO NOT attempt to install this appliance yourself. Injury could
result from installing the unit due to lack of appropriate
electrical and technical background.
• Range hood may have very sharp edges; please wear
protective gloves if it is necessary to remove any parts for
installing, cleaning or servicing.
• Activating any switch ON before completing installation may
cause ignition or an explosion.
• Due to the size and weight of this range hood, two people
installation is recommended.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO
PERSONS:
• For general ventilating use only. DO NOT use to exhaust
hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
• The combustion air ow needed for safe operation of fuel-
burning equipment may be affected by this unit’s operation.
Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and
safety standards such as those published by the National

5
Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society
of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers
(ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
• Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power OFF at service
panel and lock service panel to prevent power from being
switched ON accidentally.
• Clean grease laden surfaces frequently.To reduce the risk of
re and to disperse air properly, make sure to vent air outside.
DO NOT vent exhaust into spaces between walls, crawl
spaces, ceiling, attics or garages.
• Ducted fans MUST always be vented to the outdoors.
• Use only metal ductwork and this unit MUST be grounded.
• Sufcient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting
of gases through the duct to prevent back drafting.
• When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, be careful not to
damage electrical wiring or other hid- den utilities.
• All electrical wiring must be properly installed, insulated and
grounded.
• Old duct work should be cleaned or replaced if necessary to
avoid the possibility of a grease re.
• Check all joints on duct work to insure proper connection
and all joints should be properly taped.
• Use this unit only in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the vendor.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A STOVE TOP GREASE FIRE:
• Keep all fan, bafe, spaces, lter, grease tunnel, oil container
and grease-laden surfaces clean. Grease should not be
allowed to accumulate on fan, bafe, spaces, lter, grease
tunnel and oil container.
• Always turn range hood ON when cooking at high heat or
when cooking aming foods.
• Use high settings on cooking range only when necessary.
• Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boil
overs cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.
• Clean ventilating fan frequently.
• Always use appropriate cookware and utensils size.
• Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface
element.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A
STOVE TOP GREASE FIRE:
• SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-tting lid, cookie sheet, or
metal tray, then turn OFF the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT
BURNS. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN—you may be burned.
KEEP FLAMMABLE OR COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL AWAY FROM
FLAMES. If the ames DO NOT go out immediately, EVACUATE
AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT or dial your local emergency
service immediately.
• DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels — a
violent steam explosion will result.

• Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
• You know you have a Class A, B, C extinguisher, and you
already know how to operate it.
• The re is small and contained in the area where it is started.
• The re department is being called.
• You can ght the re with your back to an exit.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A
GAS LEAKS:
• Extinguish any open ame.
• DO NOT turn on the range hood fan or any type of ventilator.
• DO NOT turn on the lights or any type of appliance.
• Open all doors and windows to disperse the gas. If you still
smell gas, call the gas company and re department, or dial
your local emergency service immediately.
• Your safety and the safety of others is very important.We
have provided many important safety mes- sages in this
manual and on your appliance.Always read and obey all
safety messages. All safety mes- sages will tell you what the
potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of
injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not
followed.
This is the safety alert symbol.This symbol alerts you

Venting Requirements
Hood mounted too low could result in heat damage and re
hazard; while hoods mounted too high will be hard to reach and
will loose its performance and efciency.
Use metal duct work only. Rigid metal vent is recommended.A
minimum of 6” round (standard for this range hood, purchased
separately must be used to maintain maximum airow efciency
DO NOT use plastic vent.
DO NOT use 4” (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps
Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints
with aluminum tape.
Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.
The vent system must have a damper. If roof or wall cap has a
damper, do not use damper supplied (for some models only)
with the range hood.
For the most efcient & quiet operation:
A distance of 24” 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” or bigger round metal/aluminum
vent work.
ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or transitions and
turns. If long duct run is required, increase duct size from 6” to
7” or 8”. If a reducer is used, install a long reducer instead of a

11
pancake reducer. Reducing duct size will restrict airow and
decrease airow, thus reduce duct size as far away from opening
as possible.
If turns or transitions are required: Install as far away from
opening and as far apart, between 2, as possible.
The size of the vent should be uniform.
Use no more than three 90° elbows.
Make sure there is a minimum of 24” of straight vent between the
elbows if more than one elbow is used.
DO NOT install two elbows together.

Installation
STEP 1: (OPTIONAL ONLY) Protect the
cook top & create work station
Have 2 piece of wood stub about 2” x 4” x 20” on both sides of
stove and a plywood on top of them to protect cook top or stove
from damage or dirt. This plywood will also create a comfortable
work station for easy to install.
STEP 2: Marking on the wall
• Center: is center of cook top or stove
• Chimney width: is the width of the chimney (Vary in each
model)
• Mounting screws: Is where the hood body will be handing
from.
Please assemble mounting bracket to hood body rst so you can
nd exact dimension.
**MOUNT SCREW HOLE DIMENSIONS:
WIDTH: is dimension from center to center of mounting bracket

18
hole
HEIGHT: is dimension from cook top to bottom of range hood
(vary from 24” to 31”) plus from bottom of range hood to
mounting bracket hole.
STEP 3: prepare ductwork & single outlet
(skip this step if you already have it)
Have 15amp, 120V, 60Hz, single outlet anywhere inside the
chimney width lines (make sure at least 2 inches below ceiling
line for ceiling bracket mount)
Have 6 inches diameter ductwork hanging down from ceiling
to the mark of mounting screws. (2 inches away from wall is
recommended since you need room for plug in and out)

19
STEP 4: install ceiling bracket, mounting
anchors and screws
Place center of upper chimney bracket inline with centerline and
all the way up to ceiling then screw it to the wall.
Pre-drill holes where your mounting marks are, then insert wall
anchors and mounting screws, make sure leaving 1/6” space
away from the wall.
STEP 5: Hang the hood and connect
Carefully hang the hood body on the wall, attaching it to the 2
screws already in place.
Level the hood body by using horizontal level
Use hand screw driver to tight those 2 mounting screws
Connect the exhaust on the hood to the ductwork above.
Use aluminum tape to make all joints secure and all tight

20
Find the three pronged plug and connect to an electrical outlet
CAUTION: Do not release the hood yet until you nish Step 6
below.
STEP 6: Install chimney
Take off outsider chimney protective laminate coating (not the
inner chimney)
Place both the chimney on top of range hood base
Make sure the chimney is facing the correct direction
Outside chimney; screw hole on the bottom, Inside chimney;
screw hole on the top
Inside chimney, screw hole on the top.
