APPLIANCE.
• The installation instructions in this manual are intended for qualified installers,
service technicians, or persons with similar qualified background. Installation
and electrical wiring must be done by qualified professionals and in accordance
with all applicable codes and standards, including first-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. Due to
the size and weight of this range hood, two people installation is recommended.
• 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.
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 flow 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 Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American
Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and
the local code authorities. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and
exhausting of gases through the duct to prevent back drafting.
• Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power OFF at service panel and lock
service panel to prevent power from being switched ON accidentally.
• Metal ductwork may be required based on local codes. Complimentary
ductwork in either heat-resistant PVC or flexible metal may be included as a
courtesy and can be omitted in favor of required ductwork.
WARNING
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Ducted fans MUST ALWAYS be vented to the outdoors. At the point where the
duct work ends, add an external damper to prevent air from entering the home
when the hood is not in use. This also prevents small animals and rain water from
entering the duct work.
• When cutting or drilling into a wall or ceiling, be careful not to damage electrical
wiring or other hidden utilities.
• Your safety and the safety of others is very important. We have provided many
important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always
read and obey all safety messages. All safety messages 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.
• 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 fire. Check all joints on duct work to insure proper
connection, all joints should be properly taped.
• Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have any
questions, contact the vendor.
• When the range hood ventilates the air out of the room, the air vented must be
replaced, this is called make-up air. If a makeup air system is needed, but not
used, a hood may not function as expected due to negative air pressure. We do
not currently provide a make-up air unit. Always consult any applicable building
codes in your area in regards to minimum and maximum air flow rates. Certain
states may require additional items such as make-up air for larger CFM range
hoods (typically over 300 CFM).
• Keep all fans, baffle, spaces, filter, grease tunnel, grease cup and grease-
laden surfaces clean. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan,
baffle, spaces, filter, grease tunnel or grease cup. Clean grease-laden surfaces
frequently.
• To reduce the risk of fire and to disperse air properly, make sure to vent air
outside. DO NOT vent exhaust into spaces between walls, crawl spaces,
ceilings, attics or garages.

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 8” or bigger round metal/aluminum vent work.
• The size of the vent should be uniform.
• Use no more than three 90° elbows. The length of vent system and number of
elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.
• 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.
• The vent system must have a damper. If roof or wall cap has a damper, DO NOT
use damper (if supplied) on top of the range hood.
• Use silver tape to seal all joints in the vent system.
• Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.
IMPORTANT:
A minimum of 6” round (standard for this range hood) or 3-1/4 x 10” rectangular
duct (purchased separately) must be used to maintain maximum airflow efficiency.
• Always use rigid type metal/aluminum ducts, if available, to maximize airflow
when connecting to provided duct.
• Please use Duct Run Calculation below to calculate total available duct run
when using elbows, transitions and caps.
• ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or transitions and turns. If long duct
run is required, increase duct size from 8” to 9” or 10”. If a reducer is used,
install a long reducer instead of a pancake reducer.
• Reducing duct size will restrict airflow and decrease airflow, 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.
• Minimum mount height between stove top to hood bottom should be no less than
28-inch*. Maximum mount height between stove top to hood bottom should be
no higher than 31-inch*.
• 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 loose its performance and efficiency.
• If available, also refer to stove top manufacturer’s height clearance requirements
and recommended hood mounting height above range.

Due to different ceiling height configurations, recommended height may not be
applicable.
CALCULATING VENT SYSTEM LENGTH
To calculate the length of the system you need, deduct the equivalent feet for each
vent piece used in the system from the recommended maximum duct run.
DUCT RUN CALCULATION
Recommended maximum run
8” or 3-1/4 x 10” duct 50 ft
Vent piece deduction
9 ft
Paper bags 5 ft
Plastic foam 7 ft
Wood 0 ft
Roof cap 0 ft
Duct Run Calculation example:
One roof cap, two 90° elbow, and one 45° elbow used:
0 ft + 9 ft + 9 ft + 5 ft = 23 ft used.
Deduct 23 ft from 50 ft, 27 ft maximum available for straight duct run.
VENTING METHODS
This range hood is factory set for venting through the roof or wall. Vent work can
terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent through a wall, use a 90° elbow.
IMPORTANT:
• 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.
• Use metal/aluminum duct work only.
• Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints with certified
silver tape.
• Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.
WARNING: Moving and installing the range hood is a two person job. Spinal or
other bodily injuries could occur if it is not followed.

• If hood looks splotchy, use a stainless steel cleaner to clean the surface of
the hood. Avoid getting cleaning solution on or into the control panel. Follow
directions of the stainless steel cleaner. CAUTION: Do NOT leave on too long
as this may cause damage to hood finish. Use soft towel to wipe off the cleaning
solution, gently rub off any stubborn spots. Use dry soft towel to dry the hood.
• After cleaning, you may use non-abrasive stainless steel polish such as 3M ® or
ZEP®, to polish and buff out the stainless luster and grain. Always scrub lightly,
with clean cotton cloth, and with the grain.
• Do NOT allow deposits to accumulate or remain on the hood.
• Do NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere
to the surface and cause rusting.
• Do NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds
to remain in contact with stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these
compounds contain chemicals which may be harmful. Rinse with water after
exposure and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
• Cleaning grease filter/stainless steel filter: IMPORTANT: Drain oil from oil
containers before oil and residue overflow!
• The metal filters fitted by the factory are intended to filter out residue and grease
from cooking. They do not need to be replaced on a regular basis but are

CLEANING
• The saturation of greasy residue in the blower and filters may cause increased
inflammability. Keep unit clean and free of grease and residue buildup at all
times to prevent possible fires.
• FILTERS MUST BE CLEANED PERIODICALLY AND FREE FROM
ACCUMULATION OF COOKING RESIDUE.
• Do NOT operate blowers when filters are removed. Never disassemble parts to
clean without proper instructions.
• Disassembly is recommended to be performed by qualified personnel only. Read
and understand all instructions and warnings in this manual before proceeding.
• For optimal operation, clean range hood and all baffle/spacer /filter/grease
tunnel/oil container regularly. Regular care will help preserve the appearance
of the range hood.
CLEANING EXTERIOR SURFACES:
• Clean periodically with stainless steel cleaner or hot soapy water and clean
cotton cloth. Do NOT use corrosive or abrasive detergent (e.g. Comet Power
Scrub®, EZ-Off® oven cleaner), or steel wool/scouring pads, which will scratch
and damage the stainless steel surface. For heavier soil, use liquid degrease such
as “Formula 409®” or “Fantastic®” brand cleaner.

DUCTWORK.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE
EVENT OF A RANGE TOP FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn
off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out
immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
2. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN. You may be burned.
3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels. A violent steam
explosive will result.
4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
• You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you already know
how to operate it.
• The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
• The fire department is being called.
• You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
1. 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.
2. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e.
Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
3. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate

RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS: INSTALLATION
Before the final installation is made, check that all parts are in the box. Check the
finish of the range hood for scratches or dents. Check the operation of the range
hood. If there are any issues, do not install the range hood. Call ZLINE at 614-777-
5004.
The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damage resulting from incorrect or
improper installation.
• Please read this instruction manual before installing and using this range hood.
Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future reference.
• This range hood can be used only in a ducted mode (ducting fumes to the
outside).
• Only a qualified and trained service technician should install and service the
unit.
• Check that the main voltage corresponds to the one indicated on the rating plate
fixated inside the hood.
• Check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate grounding.
• Do not connect the hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion fumes (boilers,
fireplaces, etc.)
• If the hood is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas
burning appliances), a sufficient degree of aeration must be guaranteed in the
room in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gas. The kitchen must have an
opening directly with the open air in order to guarantee the entry of clean air.
• The minimum distance is 30”-32” from the range hood to a gas hob and is
24”-30” to an electric hob. If the installation instructions for gas hobs specify a
greater distance, this must be taken into account.

• For optimal operation, clean range hood and all baffle/spacer /filter/grease
tunnel/oil container regularly. Regular care will help preserve the appearance
of the range hood.
CLEANING EXTERIOR SURFACES:
• Clean periodically with stainless steel cleaner or hot soapy water and clean
cotton cloth. Do NOT use corrosive or abrasive detergent (e.g. Comet Power
Scrub®, EZ-Off® oven cleaner), or steel wool/scouring pads, which will scratch
and damage the stainless steel surface. For heavier soil, use liquid degrease such
as “Formula 409®” or “Fantastic®” brand cleaner.
• If hood looks splotchy, use a stainless steel cleaner to clean the surface of
the hood. Avoid getting cleaning solution on or into the control panel. Follow
directions of the stainless steel cleaner. CAUTION: Do NOT leave on too long
as this may cause damage to hood finish. Use soft towel to wipe off the cleaning
solution, gently rub off any stubborn spots. Use dry soft towel to dry the hood.
• After cleaning, you may use non-abrasive stainless steel polish such as 3M ® or
ZEP®, to polish and buff out the stainless luster and grain. Always scrub lightly,
with clean cotton cloth, and with the grain.
• Do NOT allow deposits to accumulate or remain on the hood.
• Do NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere
to the surface and cause rusting.
• Do NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds
to remain in contact with stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these
compounds contain chemicals which may be harmful. Rinse with water after
exposure and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
• Cleaning grease filter/stainless steel filter: IMPORTANT: Drain oil from oil
containers before oil and residue overflow!
• The metal filters fitted by the factory are intended to filter out residue and grease
from cooking. They do not need to be replaced on a regular basis but are
required to be kept clean.
• Filters should be cleaned after every 30 hours of use. Remove and clean by
hand or dishwasher. Use proper degreasing detergent for stainless steel and
leave to soak if heavily soiled. Dry filters and re-install before using hood.
