Operating Instructions

WARNING

Never operate the range hood without the filter(s) in place. Also, do not operate the hood with grimy or grease-laden filters. Personal injury, fire or damage to the range hood could result.

Important Operating Tips

•Always use the blower when using the cooktop or range.

•Turn the blower on a few minutes before start- ing to cook to establish an airflow pattern in the room.

•Adjust the fan speed according to the volume and weight of the food you are cooking.

•Shut nearby windows and doors, turn off ceiling fans and close nearby heating and air condition- ing outlets to reduce air currents around the hood.

•Place your largest pots and pans on the back burners when possible.

•In the interest of safety, heat oils and fats slowly.

NOTE: To conserve energy, the blower system automatically turns itself off after four hours of continuous operation.

Energy Saving Tips

•Do not operate the fan at a speed higher than necessary to remove heat and smoke. Running at too high a speed will draw in air from outside the house, increasing heating and cooling costs.

•Keep the filter system and hood surfaces free of grease and grime to improve efficiency.

•Turn the fan off as soon as all smoke and odors have been cleared.

•Select cookware of the proper size, material and construction for the cooking task. Always use lids on cookware to retain heat and moisture.

•Minimize the amount of liquid used to cook food.
