Operation

Controls

Your Range Hood is equipped with two rocker style switches with one controlling the lighting and the other controlling the exhaust fan. The light switch has two positions, ON ( Maintenance ) and OFF ( Troubleshooting Guide ). The fan

is a three position switch, HIGH ( TroubleProbable Cause ), LOW ( Suggested Remedy ), and OFF. OFF is the middle position of the switch.

Maintenance

Filters

1.Grease Filter - Included with your range hood is an aluminum grease filter that should be washed in hot water with detergent

once a month. Reverse the instructions in the “Finishing the Installation” section of the instructions to remove filter. If the grease filter becomes damaged, replace with Air King Model RF35 Grease Filter.

2.Charcoal Odor Filter - If you have installed an optional combination grease/charcoal filter, it cannot be washed and must be discarded and replaced when it becomes noticeably dirty, has stopped filtering the odors, or at least once per year. Replace with Air King Model RF55 Combination Odor/Grease Filter.

Cleaning

CAUTION: DO NOT USE GASOLINE, BENZINE, THINNER, HARSH CLEANSERS, ETC., AS THEY MAY DAMAGE THE RANGE HOOD.
