Located to the left of the fan switches is the halogen light switch. This controls the 50 watt halogen lights located in the front of the hood. The halogen lights also have a switch which can be rotated in order to dim or brighten the lights. Turn the dimmer control knob clockwise to brighten the lights and counterclockwise to dim.

Each 18” H. indoor hood will be equipped with one or two heat lamp outlets. The switches to operate the heat lamps will be located on the right end of the control panel. The 250 watt infrared bulbs are not included and should be purchased locally. CAUTION: Do not place flammable material on warming shelves when using heat lamps.

Heat Sensor Thermostat

Your hood is equipped with a heat sensor thermostat. The thermostat will turn on or speed up the blower if it senses excessive heat above the cooking surface. If the blower is OFF - it turns the blower ON to HIGH speed. If the blower is ON at a lower speed setting - it turns the blower up to HIGH speed. When the temperature level drops to normal, the blower will return to its original setting. CAUTION: If the power to the hood is not disconnected during cleaning, the heat sensor thermostat can cause the blower to turn ON.

Using the Grill with Outdoor Approved Hoods

•Outdoor approved hood models should be installed in a covered non- enclosed area. They should also be protected from natural elements (such as rain) as much as possible.

•Always turn the outdoor hood on to the HI position before lighting the grill. •Keep the grill canopy closed as much as possible when cooking so smoke is exhausted out the back of the grill. This allows for optimum performance of the hood.

•During breezy conditions, the performance of the outdoor hood may be compromised.

CAUTION

UNPLUG POWER CORDS FROM CONTROL PANEL

BEFORE CLEANING OR SERVICING HOOD.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when maintained properly and kept clean. Ventilation equipment is no exception. Your hood must be kept clean and maintained properly.

Cleaning the Baffle Filters

As air passes through a baffle filter, grease particles collect on the stainless steel “U” shaped baffle channels and drip down into the bottom of the filter. Baffle filters are extremely efficient when compared to mesh filters. The power of the hood is increased as more air passes through a baffle filter than with usually dirty mesh filters. The capture of grease is also superior as baffle filters are almost universally required in commercial installations. The baffle filters should be examined periodically to assure that all surfaces and parts are clean. The filters can be washed in a dishwasher or in a sink with hot, soapy water. Simple periodic cleaning will insure maximum filter effectiveness.

•Do not use caustic detergent to clean the filters. A caustic cleaner may damage the finish.

•Do not take the baffle filters apart to clean them. It is not necessary and will void the filter warranty.

When cleaning filters in 18” H. hoods, always remove the grease trough and clean by placing in sink with hot soapy water.
