WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS, IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
SMOTHER FLAMES with a close - fitting lid, cookie sheet, or other metal tray, then turn off the gas burner or the electric element. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - you may be burned.
DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - a violent steam explosion will result.
Use an extinguisher ONLY if: You know you have a class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started. The fire department is being called. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
OPERATION Always leave safety grills and filters in place.Without these components, operating blowers could catch onto hair, fingers and loose clothing. The manufacturer declines all responsibility in the event of failure to observe the instructions given here for installation,maintenance and suitable use of the product. The manufacturer further declines all respon- sibility for injury due to negligence and the warranty of the unit automatically expires due to improper mainte- nance.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To Reduce The Risk Of Fire Or Electric Shock, Do Not Use This Hood With Any External Solid State Speed Control Device.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE.
Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.
Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (l.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe).
Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.

Ensure that the electrical installation is adequate and in conformance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest edition), or CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. 0-M91 (latest edi- tion) and all local codes and ordinances. If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the ground path is adequate. A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association One Batterymarch Park
Quincy, MA 02269 CSA International
8501 East Pleasant Valley Road Cleveland, OH 44131-5575
A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15-amp, fused electrical circuit is required.
If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure below:
Connect a section of solid copper wire to the pigtail leads.
Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of copper wire using special co nectors and/or tools designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.
Follow the electrical connector manufacturers recom- mended procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.
Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of the appliance as specified on the model/serial rating plate. The model/serial plate is located on the left side of the range hood.

.
IMPORTANT Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
It is the installers responsibility to comply with installation clearances specified on the model/serial rating plate. The model/serial rating plate is located inside the range hood on the left side (See page 2 for location). Range hood location should be away from strong draft areas, such as windows, doors and strong heating vents.
Cabinet opening dimensions that are shown must be used. Given dimensions provide minimum clearance. Consult the cooktop/range manufacturer installation instructions before making any cutouts.
Grounded electrical outlet is required. See Electrical Requirements section.
All openings in ceiling and wall where canopy hood will be installed must be sealed.
For Mobile Home Installations The installation of this range hood must conform to the Manufactured Home Construction Safety Standards, Title 24 CFR, Part 328 (formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD, Part 280) or when such standard is not applicable, the stan- dard for Manufactured Home Installation 1982 (Manu- factured Home Sites, Communities and Setups) ANSI A225.1/NFPA 501A, or latest edition, or with local codes.

Vent system must terminate to the outdoors. Do not terminate the vent system into an attic or other
enclosed area. Do not use a 4 (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall cap. Use a 3 x 10 (8.3 x 25.4 cm) rectangular or 7 (17.8
cm) round metal vent. Rigid metal vent is recommended. Plastic or metal foil vent is not recommended.
The length of vent system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.
For the most efficient and quiet operation: Use no more than three 90 elbows. Make sure there is a minimum of 24 (61 cm) of straight
vent between the elbows if more than 1 elbow is used. Do not install 2 elbows together. Use clamps or duct tape to seal all joints in the
vent system. The vent system at exit must have a cold air damper. Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening
around the cap. Best performances are reached with straight piping,
without elbows and using smooth pipe. Maximum recomended vent system length: 35 ft (10.7m).
Cold Weather Installations An additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a thermal break should be installed to minimize conduction of outside tem- peratures as part of the vent system. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break. The break should be as close as possible to where the vent system enters the heated portion of the house. Makeup Air Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems when using ventilation systems greater than specified CFM of air movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area. Venting Methods Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. Use 3 x 10 (8.3 x 25.4 cm) rectangular with a maximum vent length of 35 ft (10.7 m) or 7 (17.8 cm) round vent with a maximum length of 50 ft (15.2 m) for vent system.
NOTE
Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates both back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduce performance.
Calculating Vent System Length To calculate the length of the system you need, add the equivalent feet (meters) for each vent piece used in the system. (1.8 cm) Round Vent System

Vent Connector Installation Install 7 (17.8 cm) round vent mounting plate or 3 x 10 (8.3 x 25.4 cm) vent connector, depending on your vent system installation. Attach to range hood using the indicated screws provided in hardware kit.
NOTE
The (1.8 cm) round vent mounting plate or the 3 x 10 (8.3 x 25.4 cm) rectangular vent connector can be installed up to 1 (. cm) on either side of the hood center to accommodate off center ductwork.
If a vent damper is installed with a wall cap with damper, check that they do not interfere with each other. Remove the vent connector damper flap if they interfere. Power Supply Cable Installation
For direct wire installations, run the home power supply cable according to the National Electric Code or CSA standards and local codes and ordinances. There must be enough wiring from the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box to make the connection in the hood electrical terminal box.
1.
Lift the range hood up under cabinet and determine final location by centering beneath cabinet. Mark on the underside of cabinet the location of the 4 keyhole mounting slots on the range hood (See slot dimensions on page 6). Set range hood aside on a covered surface.
Use 8 (3 mm) drill bit and drill 4 pilot holes as shown. NOTE: Make the drill holes on the thin area of the slot.
Install the 4 - .45 cm x 1.3 cm mounting screws in pilot holes. Leave about (6.4 mm) space between screw heads and cabinet to slide range hood into place.
For roof installations, remove the top rectangular or round vent knockout depending on which vent system you desire to install. For wall installations, remove the rear rectangular vent knockout.
