Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.

FAN Control

Turn the FAN speed control to LO, MED LO,

MED HI or HI, as needed.

Continuous use of the fan system while cooking helps

keep the kitchen comfortable and less humid. It also

reduces cooking odors and soiling moisture that

create a frequent need for cleaning.

NOTE: When the fan is operating on the LO setting,

it will be very quiet. Always make sure that the fan is

turned OFF when you are finished in the kitchen.

LIGHT Control

Turn the LIGHT control to HI for bright light while

cooking. Turn to NITE for use as a night light.

Care and cleaning of the vent hood.

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning or servicing any part of the vent hood.

The hood has 2 metal reusable grease

filters.

The metal filters trap grease released

by foods on the cooktop. They also

help prevent flaming foods on the

cooktop from damaging the inside of

the hood.

For this reason, the filters must

ALWAYS be in place when the hood

is used. The grease filters should be

cleaned once a month, or as needed.

To clean the grease filters, soak

them and then swish them around

in hot water and detergent. Don’t

use ammonia or ammonia products

because they will darken the metal.

Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.

Light brushing can be used to remove

embedded dirt. Rinse, shake and let

them dry before replacing.

To remove:

Grasp the filter handle and pull it up,

forward and out.

To replace:

Hold the filter at the bottom with

the handle.

Place the top end of the filter

against the inside front of the

hood.

Slide it up until it stops and push

the bottom end back until it snaps

into place.

Reusable Metal Grease Filters

Do not use a steel wool pad; it will

scratch the surface.

To clean the stainless steel surface,

use warm sudsy water or a stainless

steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe the

surface in the direction of the grain.

Follow the cleaner instructions for

cleaning the stainless steel surface.

To inquire about purchasing stainless

steel appliance cleaner or polish, or to

find the location of a dealer nearest

you, please call our toll-free number:

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning or servicing any part of the vent hood.

Hood Lights

NOTE: The glass cover should be removed

only when cold. Wearing latex gloves may

offer a better grip.

CAUTION: Before replacing your

light bulb, disconnect the electrical power to

the hood at the main fuse or circuit breaker

panel.

Be sure to let the light cover and bulb cool

completely.

For your safety, do not touch a hot bulb with

bare hands or a damp cloth.

To remove:

Turn the glass cover counterclockwise until

the glass cover clears the socket.

Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove the

bulb by pulling it straight out.

To replace:

Use a new 12-volt, 20-watt (maximum)

Halogen bulb for a G-4 base.

Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove the

new bulb from its packaging.

NOTE: Do not touch the new halogen bulb

with bare fingers. Touching the bulb with

bare fingers will significantly reduce the life

of the bulb.

Push the bulb straight into the receptacle

all the way.

Place the glass cover onto the socket and

turn clockwise until secure.

For improved lighting, clean the glass cover

frequently using a damp cloth. This should

DUCT COVER REQUIREMENTS

We recommend that the vent hood and decorative duct

cover (if used) be on site before final framing and wall

finishing. This will help to accurately locate studs, ductwork,

and electrical service. Read these instructioins to determine

if the duct cover accessory can be used for your installation

situation.

Duct Cover Accessory:

• Use the decoroative duct cover to conceal ductwork

running from the top of the hood to the ceiling.

• The duct cover accessory

consists of 2 pieces. The

outside piece is 12” high,

the inside piece is 22”.

Nested together they are

24” min. expanding to a total

maximum height of 34”.

• The outside piece can be

used alone to fill a 12”

height.

• For heights over 12”, the

ceiling bracket must be

installed to secure the cover

at the top.

To avoid unsightly gaps, plan

the hood installation height for duct cover use.

• The cover will fit a 12” min. height from the top of the

hood to the ceiling or 24” min. and expanding up to 34”

from the top of the hood to the ceiling.

THE DUCT COVER CANNOT BE USED WHEN THE DISTANCE

ABOVE THE TOP OF THE HOOD IS BETWEEN 12” AND 24”.

Review the following examples to ensure a trouble free

installation using the duct cover

accessory.

8ft. Ceilings:

The hood must be installed

at 30” above the cooking

surface (or 66” above the

floor). the duct cover will not

fit if the hood is isntalled at

a lower or higher height.

Use the outside 12” section,

discard the inside section.

9 ft Ceiling: Install the hood 24” min. and up to a maximum

of 30” above the cooking surface. The duct cover will expand

to reach ceiling height.
