THIS HOOD IS DESIGNED TO USE A 6” ROUND DUCT -
IT MAY BE TRANSITIONED TO A 3-1/4” X 10” RECTANGULAR DUCT
NEVER REDUCE DUCT SIZE. UNDERSIZED DUCTING SEVERELY RESTRICTS AIR
FLOW AND HARMS PERFORMANCE.
(Example: the area of a 6” Duct is more than TWICE that of a 4” Duct)
KEEP DUCT RUNS AS SHORT AND STRAIGHT AS POSSIBLE.
AVOID USING FLEXIBLE METAL DUCTING IF RUN IS LONGER THAN 6’.
NEVER USE PLASTIC DUCTING.
USE SMOOTH BORE METAL DUCTING.
MINIMIZE THE NUMBER OF FITTINGS (see chart).
WHEN YOU MUST USE FITTINGS, TRY TO SEPARATE THEM WITH SECTIONS OF
3’ OR MORE OF STRAIGHT DUCT.
ALWAYS FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURER’S GUIDELINES FOR THE COOKING
EQUIPMENT YOU ARE VENTING.
IF MAKE UP AIR CONTROL DAMPERS ARE REQUIRED, POSITION THE SENSOR
IN A STRAIGHT RUN OF DUCT IDEALLY WITH 3’ OF STRAIGHT DUCT BETWEEN
EACH SIDE OF THE SENSOR AND A DUCT FITTING. REMEMBER TO INCLUDE
POWER AND CONTROL WIRING FOR THIS IN YOUR PLANS.
ADHERE TO ALL LOCAL BUILDING CODES AND ORDINANCES.
USE THE WORKSHEET THAT FOLLOWS TO HELP CALCULATE THE
TOTAL EQUIVILENT FEET OF YOUR DUCT RUN.
TOTAL EQUIVILENT FEET SHOULD BE LESS THAN 100’.

All range hoods have a recommended range of installation height over the cooking
surface.
It is important to install the hood at the proper mounting height. Hoods mounted too
low could result in heat damage and fire hazard; while hoods mounted too high will
be hard to reach and will lose its performance and efficiency.

maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance is the key to long life and peak performance of any
equipment.
•Theanti-greaselter is used to trap any grease particles suspended in the air, therefore
is subject to saturation (the time it takes for the lter to become saturated depends on the
way in which the appliance is used). The greaseltersshould be cleaned frequently. Use a
warm detergent solution. Grease lters are a dishwasher safe.
- To prevent potential re hazards, the anti-
grease lters should be washed a minimum
of every 2 months (it is possible to use the
dishwasher for this task).
- After a few washes, the colour of the lters
may change. This does not mean they have to
be replaced. If the replacement and washing
instructions are not followed, the anti-grease
lters may present a re hazard.
CLEANING STAINLESS STEEL:
Do not use corrosive detergents, abrasive detergents or oven cleaners.
Do not use any product containing chlorine bleach or any product containing chloride.
Do not use steel wool or abrasive scrubbing pads which will scratch and damage surface.
Cleaning Stainless Steel Clean periodically with warm soapy water and clean cotton cloth or
micro fiber cloth. Always rub in the direction of the stainless steel grain. To remove heavier
grease build up use a liquid degreaser detergent. After cleaning use a non-abrasive stainless
steel polish/cleaners, to polish and buff out the stainless luster and grain.Always rub lightly, with
a clean cotton cloth or a micro fiber cloth and buff in the direction of the stainless steel grain.
Any painted surfaces should be cleaned with warm water and detergent only.

XORFSQR
FOR UNITS USED IN RECIRCULATION MODE ONLY:
This refers to hoods which are not ducted outside but rely instead on carbon filter elements
to help purify the air before it is exhausted back into the room.
The carbon element filters gradually lose efficiency and cannot be cleaned or regenerated.
These must be replaced at least 4 times a year, more frequently if needed based on the
amount of use and style of cooking.
CHANGING THE CARBON FILTERS:
Changing the filters is easy.
To Reduce the Risk of Fire and Shock use only
conversion Kit Model XORFSQR(ACK00083) Filters.
The XORFSQR filters are sold in pairs.
To replace the filters, unlatch and remove the
Anti-Grease filters.
This will expose the blower.
Remove the old filter as shown in the figure and
install the new filter simply align and push into
place to lock.
LED LIGHT REPLACEMENT
The LED light modules are held in place by
spring clips which must be squeezed in be-
fore the lamp can be pushed down through
the fascia.
Unplug the plastic molex connector.
Plug in the new fixture and snap back into
place.

BUTTON 1: SPEED I
BUTTON 2: SPEED II
BUTTON 3: SPEED III
BUTTON T: AUTOMATIC STOP TIMER - 15 minutes (*)
• The appliance has the Power Boost speed function: press BUTTON 3 for two seconds and
it will be activated for 10 minutes after which it will return to the previously set speed. When
the function is active the LED ashes. To interrupt it before the 10 minutes have expired press
BUTTON 3 again.
•By pressing BUTTON T for two seconds (with the hood switched o󰀨) the “cleanair” func-
tion is activated. This function switches the appliance on for ten minutes every hour at the
rst speed. As soon as this function is activated the motor starts up at the rst speed for ten
minutes. During this time BUTTON T and BUTTON 1 must ash at the same time.
After ten minutes the motor switches o󰀨 and the LED of BUTTON T remains switched on with
a xed light until the motor starts up again at the rst speed after fty minutes and BUTTON
T and BUTTON 1 start to ash again for ten minutes and so on.
By pressing any key for the exclusion of the hood light the hood will return immediately to its
normal functioning (e.g. if BUTTON 2 is pressed the “cleanair” function is deactivated and
the motor moves to the 2nd speed straight away. By pressing the BUTTON 0 the function is
deactivated).
(*) The “automatic stop timer” delays stopping of the hood, which will continue functioning for
15 minutes at the operating speed set at the time this function is activated.
•Activecarbon/greaseltersaturation:
- When button ashes at a frequency of 2 seconds, the grease lters must be cleaned.
- When button ashes at a frequency of 0.5 seconds, the carbon lters must be replaced.
After the clean lter has been replaced, the electronic memory must be reset by pressing
button for approximately 5 seconds, until the light on the button stops ashing.
Your XO range hood is controlled by these
electronic push buttons which illuminate when
activated.
