| WARNING |   |
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSON(S) OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
- Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer at the address or telephone number listed in the warranty.
- Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch power off at the service panel and lock service disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
- Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified personnel in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction codes and standards.
- Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel-burning equipment to prevent back-drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guidelines and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
- This product may have sharp edges. Be careful to avoid cuts and abrasions during installation or cleaning.
- When cutting or drilling into a wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
- Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
- Do not use this unit with any other solid-state speed control device.
- Use only metal ductwork.
- This unit must be grounded.
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 the hood ON when cooking at high heat or when cooking flaming foods (i.e. Crêpes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
c) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fans or filters.
d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.
| WARNING | |
- TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSON(S) IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING
*: 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.
- NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be burned.
- DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels –This could cause a violent steam explosion.
- Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
A. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you know how to operate it.
B. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
C. The fire department has been called.
D. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
* Based on “Kitchen Fire Safety Tips” published by NFPA.
CAUTION
- For indoor use only.
- For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
- To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impeller, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. off the power unit.
- Do not use over cooking equipment greater than 60,000 BTU/hr. as the blower motor will shut down intermittently.
- Your hood motor has a thermal overload which will automatically shut off the motor if it becomes overheated. The motor will restart when it cools down. If the motor continues to shut off and restart, have the hood serviced.
- The bottom of the hood MUST NOT BE LESS than 26” and at a maximum of 36” above the cooktop for best capture of cooking impurities.
- Two installers are recommended because of the size of this hood.
- To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside. Do not exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.
- Be careful when installing the decorative flue and hood, they may have sharp edges.
- Please read the specification label on the product for further information and requirements.
INSTALLER: LEAVE THIS GUIDE WITH THE HOMEOWNER. HOMEOWNER: OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE INFORMATION ON PAGE 2.
OPERATION
The hood is operated using the push buttons on the front panel. Push the light button to turn the lights on and off.
Push the blower controls to select low, medium, or high blower speed (for each speed selected, it indicates light will beam). Press on the current blower speed another time to stop it.
While the blower is activated, press the 5-minute delay button once (it indicates light will beam) to get the hood running for 5 minutes and then turn it off automatically.
When the 5-minute delay is activated, changing the blower speed will cancel the 5-minute delay function.
To cancel the delay-off function before the end of the 5-minute cycle, press again on the delay-off push button or select another blower speed.
CLEANING and MAINTENANCE
Proper maintenance of the Range Hood will assure the proper performance of the unit.
MOTOR
The motor is permanently lubricated and never needs oiling. If the motor bearings make an excessive or unusual noise, replace the blower with the exact service blower.
GREASE FILTERS
The grease filters should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm dishwashing detergent solution. Grease filters are dishwasher safe.
Clean all-metal filters in the dishwasher using a non-phosphate detergent. Discoloration of the filters may occur if using phosphate detergents, or as a result of local water conditions – but this will not affect filter performance. This discoloration is not covered by the warranty.
Remove grease filters by pulling down on the metal latch tab. This will disengage the filter from the hood. Tilt the filter downward and remove it.
NON-DUCTED RECIRCULATION FILTERS
The non-ducted recirculation filters should be changed every 6 months. Replace more often if your cooking style generates extra grease, such as frying and wok cooking. Turn the filter mounting tabs to remove the filter and replace it.
STAINLESS STEEL CLEANING
- Regularly wash with a clean cloth or rag soaked with warm water and mild soap or liquid dish detergent.
- Always clean in the direction of original polish lines.
- Always rinse well with clear water (2 or 3 times) after cleaning. Wipe dry completely.
- You may also use a specialized household stainless steel cleaner.
DON’T:
- Use any steel or stainless steel wool or any other scrapers to remove stubborn dirt.
- Use any harsh or abrasive cleansers.
- Allow dirt to accumulate.
- Let plaster dust or any other construction residues reach the hood. During construction/renovation, cover the range hood to make sure no dust sticks to the stainless steel surface.
Avoid: When choosing a detergent
- Any cleaners that contain bleach will attack stainless steel
- Any products containing: chloride, fluoride, iodide, bromide will deteriorate surfaces rapidly.
- Any combustible products used for cleaning such as acetone, alcohol, ether, benzol, etc., are highly explosive and should never be used close to a range.
INSTALL THE DUCTWORK (Ducted Hoods Only)
- Decide where the ductwork will run between the hood and the outside.
- A straight, short duct run will allow the hood to perform most efficiently.
- Long duct runs, elbows, and transitions will reduce the performance of the hood. Use as few of them as possible. Larger ducting may be required for best performance with longer duct runs.
- Install wall cap or roof cap. Connect round metal ductwork to cap and work back towards the hood location. Use duct tape to seal the joints between ductwork sections.
MEASURE THE INSTALLATION
The minimum hood distance above the cooktop MUST NOT BE LESS than 26”.
A maximum of 36” above the cooktop is highly recommended for the best capture of cooking impurities.
Distances over 36” are at the installer and user’s discretion; providing that the ceiling height permits.
