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.
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. When the sensor activates, the letters “HOT” will appear on the display. 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 and the display will be cleared.. CAUTION: If the power to the hood is not disconnected during cleaning, the heat sensor thermostat can cause the blower to turn ON.
