Copies of the standards listed may be obtained from:
* National Fire Protection Association Batterymarch Park Quincy, Massachusetts 2269
** CSA International 85 1 East Pleasant Valley Road Cleveland, Ohio 44131-5575
BEFORE INSTALLING THE HOOD
1. For the most efficient air flow exhaust, use a straight run or as few elbows as possible.
CAUTION: Vent unit to outside of building, only.
2. At least three people are necessary for installation.
3. The hood is fitted with Screws and Drywall Anchors suitable for most surfaces, consult a Qualified Installer, check if
they perfectly fit with your cabinet/wall.
4. Do not use flex ducting.
5. COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional backdraft damper installed to minimize backward cold air
flow and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the ductwork. The
damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break.
The break should be as close as possible to where the ducting enters the heated portion of the house.
6. ake up air: Local building codes may require the use of ake-Up Air Systems when using Ducted Ventilation
Systems greater than specified CF of air movement.
The specified CF varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area.

Installation Instructions
Closely follow the instr ctions set o t in this man al.
All responsibility, for any eventual inconveniences, damages or fires caused by not complying with the instructions in this
manual, is declined.
VENTING METHODS
The hood is equipped with a transition B for discharge of fumes to the outside (Ducting v rsion).
Should it not be possible to discharge cooking fumes and vapour to the outside, the hood can be used in the Ductl ss
(r circulating) v rsion. Attach a charcoal filter and the deflector F on the duct cover support bracket G. Fumes and
vapors are recycled through the top grille H by means of a duct connected to the transition B and the transition mounted
on the deflector F.
NOTE: For ductl ss (r circulating) v rsion only: purchas th Ductl ss R circulating Kit.
Minimum Duct Siz (Ducting/Ductl ss v rsion): 8" Round Pip .
PREPARATION
Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be
constructed.
Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings.
However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling.
The weight of the hood is:
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
Hood installation height above cooktop is the users preference. The lower the hood above the cooktop, the more efficient
the capturing of cooking odors, grease and smoke.
Th hood shall b install d at 24" minimum to 32" abov th count rtop.
Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum before you select your hood.

Remote Control Maintenance:
Clean the remote control using non abrasive detergents.
Follow the instructions below in order to replace the batteries for the remote control :
Using a small screwdriver, raise the cover on the base of the remote control, in order to access the battery
compartment.
Remove the battery holder, and replace 4 new batteries type ..394 of 1.5V.
Place the batteries in order in the battery holder (see illustration) taking care to respect the polarities indicated on the
base of the upper section of the remote control.
Warning!
If the remote control doesnt work after installation (yet the control ball works correctly), do the following:
1. Place the remote control on the work surface near the hood.
2. Disconnect the hood from the mains.
3. Reconnect the hood to the mains.
Follow this procedure whenever the remote control doesnt work for no apparent reason (e.g.: dead battery).

20
Maintenance
Prior to any maintenance operation ensure that the cooker hood is disconnected from the power supply.
CLEANING
The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly internally and externally.
For cleaning use a cloth moistened with a neutral liquid detergents. Avoid abrasive detergents.
