WARNING: Disconnect power before servicing or cleaning the unit.
Blower Control | Care of Filter | Motor |
The speed control can be adjusted from OFF to high speed. At the highest setting, the blower exhausts 410 CFM. It takes about 15 seconds for the blower to reach high speed.. For most effective removal of smoke and odors, turn the fan on at the beginning of cooking and allow it to run until smoke and odors are removed from the room.
Lights
This hood has two lights. Do not use bulbs larger than 75 watts. There are two light levels. To change light bulbs, first remove the filters. It is not necessary to remove the blower cover.
For greatest efficiency the aluminum filter should be cleaned periodically. To remove the filter, pull the tab to the side and then down. Soak it in hot water and detergent. Rinse and dry thoroughly before replacing.
Care of Exterior Surfaces
Use a mild detergent to clean the hood. DO NOT use abrasive cleansers.
When the control is not set on high and if the motor seems to be operating at high speed or if ventilation seems inadequate, check the following:
1.Knockouts not removed from hood.
2.Blower installed for vertical discharge instead of horizontal discharge or vice versa.
3.Damper blade not opening.
4.Reduced airflow because the duct is too small or the length is too long.
5.The duct is blocked.
6.Undersized or restrictive wall or roof cap.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: OBSERVE ALL GOVERNING CODES AND ORDINANCES.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE LOCAL ELECTRICAL INSPECTOR’S USE.
Cabinet Height
For most efficient operation, the top of the hood should be approximately 66″ (167.6 cm) from the floor.
Installing the Range Hood
Determine which direction the vent will be installed (top or rear).
1.Remove filters and motor/light cover (3 screws).
2.Remove the blower motor by removing the “packing screw” and the clip on the retainer bar.
Discard the clip and screw.
Unplug the motor from the junction box.

Venting
This hood must be vented vertically through upper cabinets or horizontally through an outside wall. Ductwork is not included.
Improper duct sizing or restrictive roof caps reduce air moving capacity and will not provide enough ventilation for an indoor electric grill.
Indoor electric grills produce more smoke than normal cooking and require at least 410 CFM to provide adequate ventilation.
Follow the guidelines for proper duct sizing in the ducting charts. NOTE: The venting system must exhaust to the outside.
Remove the selected wiring knockout and duct knockout from the top or rear of the hood. Use a flat blade screwdriver to cut the tabs.
