OWNER: Please retain these instructions for future reference.
Take care when using cleaning agents or detergents.
Suitable for use in household cooking area.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of re or electric shock, do not use this fan with any
Solid-State Speed Control Device.
CAUTION - To reduce risk of re and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air out-
side – Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl
spaces, or garages.
CAUTION - For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or ex-
plosive materials and vapors.
CAUTION - To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impellers,
keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. o power unit.
CAUTION - Please read specication label on product for further information and
requirements.
WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
A. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions,
contact the manufacturer.
B. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power o at service panel and lock the serv-
ice disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally.
When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a promi-
nent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
WARNING - 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 ambeing foods ( i.e.
ENGLISH USA

- 4 -
Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambè ).
C. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on
fan or lter.
D. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface
element.
E. Keep fan, lters and grease laden surface clean.
F. Use high range setting on range only when necessary.Heat oil slowly on low to me-
dium setting.
G. Don’ t leave range unattended when cooking.
H. Always use cookware and utensils appropriate for the type and amount o food be-
ing prepared.
WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE
TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWINGa:
A. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-tting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn o
the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the ames do not go out immediately,
EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
B. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be burned.
C. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a violent steam explosion
will result.
D. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
1. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate
it.
2. The re is small and contained in the area where it started.
3. The re department is being called.
4. You can ght the re with your back to an exit.
aBased on “kitchen resafety tips” published by NFPA
Proper maintenance of the Range Hood will assure proper performance of the
unit.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
A. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualied person(s) in accord-
ance with all applicable codes and standards, including re-rated construction.
B. Sucient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the
ue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heat-
ing equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as those pub-
lished by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society
for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local
code authorities.
C. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and
other hidden utilities.

D. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
E. This unit must be grounded.
WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY METAL DUCTWORK.
WARNING - UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES DOMESTIC APPLIANCES MAY BE DAN-
GEROUS.
A. Do not check lters with hood working.
B. Do not touch the lamps after a prolonged use of the appliance.
C. No food must be cooked ambè underneath the hood.
D. The use of an unprotected ame is dangerous for the lters and could cause res.
E. Watch constantly the fried food in order to avoid the cooking oil ares up.
F. Before performing any mainteinance operation, disconnect the hood from the elec-
trical service.
The manufacturers will not to accept any responsability for eventual damages, be-

DUCT FITTINGS:
This Hood Must Use an
6" Round Duct. It Can
Transition to 3-1/4" x 10"
or 3-1/4" x 12" Duct.
Use this chart to compu-
te maximum permissible
lengths for duct runs to
outdoors.
NOTE: Do not exceed ma-
ximum permissible equiva-
lent lengths!
Maximum duct length:
100 feet for range ho-
ods.
Flexible ducting:
If flexible metal ducting is
used, all the equivalent feet
values in the table should be
doubled. The flexible metal
duct should be straight and
smooth and extended as
much as possible.
DO NOT use flexible plastic
ducting.
NOTE: Anyhomeventilation
system, such as a ventilation
hood, may interrupt the
proper flow of combustion
air and exhaust required
by fireplaces, gas furnaces,
gas water heaters and other
naturally vented systems. To
minimize the chance of in-
terruption of such naturally
vented systems, follow the
heating equipment manu-
facturer’s guidelines and
safety standards such as
those published by NFPA.

WARNING FIRE HAZARD
NEVER exhaust air or terminate duct work into spaces between walls, crawl spaces,
ceiling, attics or garages.
All exhaust must be ducted to the outside, unless using the recirculating option.
Use single wall rigid Metal ductwork only.
Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints w/ certied Silver
Tape or Duct Tape.
INSTALL THE DUCTWORK:
NOTE: To reduce the risk of re, use only metal ductwork.
1. Decide where the ductwork will run between the hood and the outside.
2. A straight, short duct run will allow the hood to perform most eciently.
3. Long duct runs, elbows, and transitions will reduce the performance of the
hood. Use as few of them as possible.
4. Install a roof or wall cap. Connect 6" round metal ductwork to cap and work
back towards hood location. Use duct tape to seal the joints between ductwork
sections.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION  VENTED TO THE OUTSIDE
1. ATTENTION!
- Before carrying out assembly operations, open the packaging, take the hood and place
it on a comfortable surface.
- Remove the anti-grease lter/s (Fig.1A).
A- If hood installation is used with the air outlet Fig.1B or Fig.1C, the wires set-up in
the relevant fairleads must be released by pulling the lever outwards, as indicated in
gure 2 - phase 1-2.
B- Disconnect the 6-way quick coupling of the motor located inside of the hood, as
show in gure 2 - phase 3.
C- The wires positioned inside of the hood are fasted with a cable tie. Cut the cable tie
as shown in gure 2 - phase 4.
Once transformation operations have been terminated, reassemble the components fol-

lowing the steps in reverse (Fig.2).
In this way it will be easier to manoeuvre the unit.
- If the appliance id to be mounted in DUCTING version, prepare the air evacuation
hole.
- It is recommended to use an air evacuation pipe with the same diameter as the air outlet
ange. The use of a reduction could decrease product performance and increase noise.
IMPORTANT - The range hood must be secured to wall
studs or use drywall anchors capable of supporting 75 lbs.
