IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLING AND OPERATING THIS APPLIANCE
WARNING: TO REDUCE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
WARNING: TO REDUCE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A
RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING :
To reduce the risk of injury to persons in the event of a gas leaks:
●Extinguish any open flame.
●DO NOT turn on the lights or any type of appliance.
●Open all doors and windows to disperse the gas. If you still smell gas, call the gas
company and fire department.
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.
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
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 trun hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette,
Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
c) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
Before servicing or cleaning unit, unplug and disconnect the hood from the power supply.
d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.
a) 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.
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 A, B, C extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.
2) The fire is small and contained in the area where it is started.
3) The fire department is being called.
4) You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

PARTS SUPPLIED:
Thin Baffle Filters (2 Pcs)

Damper Flap
•Vent system must terminate to the outside
(Roof or side wall).
•DO NOT terminate the vent system in an attic
or other enclosed area.
•DO NOT use 4” (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall
caps.
•Use metal/aluminum vent only. Rigid metal/
aluminum vent is recommended.
•DO NOT use plastic vent.
•Always keep the duct clean to ensure proper
airflow.
•Calculate the following figures before
installation:
1. Distance from the floor to the ceiling
2. Distance between the floor to the
countertop/stove
3. Distance between the cooking surface to the
range hood (recommended minimum 24”
electric cooktop, 30” gas cooktop)
4. Height of hood and duct cover
For the most efficient & quiet operation:
•A distance of 24” minimum is recommended
between electric stove top and the bottom of range
hood, and 30” between gas stove top and bottom of
range hood. Maximum 30".
•It is recommended that the range hood be vented
vertically through the roof through 6” (15.3 cm) or
bigger round metal/aluminum vent work.
•The size of the vent should be uniform.
•Use no more than three 90° elbows.
•Make sure there is a minimum of 24” (61 cm) of
straight vent between the elbows if more than one
elbow is used.
•DO NOT install two elbows together.
•The length of vent system and number of elbows
should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient
performance.
•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 or duct tape to seal all joints in the
vent system.
•Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening
around the cap.
VENTING REQUIREMENTS: HEIGHT & CLEARANCE:

IMPORTANT:
• A minimum of 6” round 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 compute 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 6” to 7” or 8”. 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 two
(2), as possible.
•Minimum mount height between stove top to hood bottom should be no less than 24-inches for electric
cooktops and 30-inches for gas cooktops. Maximum 30".
• 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 may be hard to reach and will lose its
performance and efficiency.
• If available, also refer to stove top manufacturer’s height clearance requirements and recommended
hood mounting height above range.
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 example:
One roof cap, two 90º elbows, and one 45º
elbow use
0ft + 9ft + 9ft + 5ft = 23ft used.
Deduct 23ft from 30ft, 7ft maximum
available for straight duct run.

• 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, a 90° elbow is needed.
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 aluminum or foil tape.
Please check the building codes in your city to learn which tape product is recommended
•
Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.
VENTING METHODS:

IMPORTANT:
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
It is the customer’s responsibility to contact a qualified electrical installer.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine
that the ground path is adequate.
A 120-Volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, fused electrical supply is required on a separate 15-amp circuit, fused on both
sides of the line.
DO NOT ground to a gas pipe.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure that the range hood is properly grounded.
DO NOT have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.
IMPORTANT: Save this Installation Guide for electrical inspector’s use.
The range hood must be connected with copper wire/plug only.
The range hood should be connected directly to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box through
flexible armored or non-metallic sheathed copper cable. UL/CSA listed strain relief must be provided at
each end of the power supply cable.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS:

Advanced Preparations:
•Be familiar with the controls of the range hood by reading through Range Hood Operations, Page 12.
• Place the range hood on a flat, stable surface. Connect the range hood to a designated standard outlet
(120-Volt, 60Hz, AC only) and turn on the range hood. Verify all operations of the range hood by
referring to Range Hood Operations.
• Place all supplied parts and required hardware on a flat, stable surface and verify the existence of all
supplied parts listed on Page 4.
Preparations:
NOTE: To avoid damage to your hood, prevent debris from entering the vent opening.
• Determine and mark the center line on the ceiling or wall where the range hood will be installed.
Make sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
• Due to the weight and size of this unit, please make sure that the support system or framework being
used is stable and secure in the ceiling or wall.
• Put a thick, protective covering over counter top, cook top or range to protect from damage or dirt.
Remove any hazardous objects around the area when installing.
CAUTION
If moving the cooking range is necessary to install the hood, turn OFF the power on an electric range at
the main electrical box. SHUT OFF THE GAS BEFORE MOVING A GAS RANGE

Installations ( refer to page 4 for parts):
NOTE: Use threaded drywall anchors only when
mounting the hood on sheet rock. Mounting the hood
on wall studs or lumbars is highly recommended.
For consumer safety reasons, mounting screws and anchors have not been supplied with this
