3. The blower or fan seems weak:

• Check if the range hood has been plugged in, make
sure that all power has been turned back ON, fused
not blown and all electrical wiring are properly con-
nected.
• Swap out light assembly to working ones to deter-
mine whether it is caused by defective bulbs. See
Replacing the light bulbs on Page 22-23.
• The range hood might not have been secured prop-
erly on to the ceiling or wall. Check with your in-
staller
• Check that the duct sized used is at least 6" or 3-1/4
x 10". Range hood WILL NOT function efficiently
with insufficient duct size. For example: 8" duct
over 6" hole and loosely secured.
• Check if duct is clogged or if damper unit (half-cir-
cular flapper) is not installed correctly or opening
properly. A tight mesh on a side wall cap unit might
also cause restriction to the air flow.
• The blower might be jammed or scraping the bot-
tom due to shipping damage. Please contact us im-
mediately. Check for objects inside the blower.
• Make sure the distance between the stove top and
the bottom of the hood is within* 24" and 31" in
distance. *Due to different ceiling height configura-
tions, recommended height may not be applicable.
• Reduce the number of elbows and length of duct
work. Check if all joints are properly connected,
sealed, and taped.
• Make sure the power is on high speed for heavy
cooking.
• These slots/holes/openings are used to exhaust
cleaned air with optional re-circulating kit. If you
did not install one, you do not need them.
