- Page 4 Your safety and the safety of others are very important to us. Always read and obey the safety messages contained in this manual. The installer should leave this manual with the customer who should retain future reference. The installation instructions in this manual are intended for qualified installers, service technicians or persons with similar qualified background.
- Page 5 Ensure the following to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons: These range hood inserts are designed for general ventilating use only. use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

- Page 9 Venting systems can terminate either through the wall or roof (see FIGURE 1). To vent through a wall a 90-degree elbow is required for top-ducted range hoods. Ensure the following principles when designing and installing ductwork (refer to FIGURE 2, page 11): exhaust the ductwork to the outside.
- Page 10 Reduce turns or transitions to a maximum of two if possible (or use the lowest number possible). Install them as far as possible from the opening and as far apart as possible from each other. Limit the calculated length of the duct system to 50 feet. The calculated length is determined as follows: 1ft of straight duct = 1ft 90-degree elbow = 9ft...
- Page 11 In ductless system installations, the hood insert provides a purification function instead of exhausting as in the ducted hood system. Fumes and exhaust from cooking is drawn and filtered by a set of charcoal filters. The air is purified and re- circulated back into the room.
- Page 12 Put a thick, protective covering over the countertop/cooking surface to protect it from damage or dirt. Remove any hazardous objects from the work area. Verify that the insert cut-out is properly dimensioned under your cabinet or hood structure (SEE FIGURE 3)
- Page 13 Verify the proper mounting height of the range hood insert (SEE FIGURE 4). The recommended heigh the cooking surface, the hood capture of heat and grease.
- Page 14 Locate the electrical power inlet hole on the side of the range hood insert (SEE FIGURE 5). Disconnect the main electric power, prepare and run a 115 volt, 15 amp electrical cable to the rang mounting location. Electrical wiring must be performed by qualified professionals and in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire rated construction.
- Page 15 Once the INSTALLATION PREPARATIONS (page 12) have been made, follow the installation steps that apply to your installation: Do not perform work on any live electrical system. Disconnect the main electrical supply before installing this range hood. Touching electrical connectors or other exposed electrical circuitry inside the range hood when energized could result in death, serious bodily injury, or property damage.
- Page 16 Once inserted, use customer provided hardware to secure the flange to the mounting location using the flange perimeter mounting holes (SEE FIGURE 7) Ensure the range hood insert is secured to with appropriate hardware for your selected mounting location. attempt to install this appliance yourself. Injury could result. Installation and must be performed by qualified professionals.
- Page 17 Install the ductwork between the wall or ceiling and the starter collar on the hood. Fasten connections with sheet metal screws and tape joints with certified Sliver Tape to secure and ensure the connection is airtight. Extraction performance will be affected and may result in excessive noise if the ductwork connection is not airtight.
- Page 18 remove permanently affixed labels, warnings, or plates from the product. This may void the warranty. Extend the electric power cable through the range hood insert and into the wiring box. Make sure the power cable is secured in the wiring box with an UL rated clamp. Electrical wiring must be performed by qualified professionals and in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire rated construction.
- Page 19 Install the stainless steel baffle filters as follows: Angle the baffle filter and insert front edge into front channel of hood (FIGURE 9). Bring up the rear edge of baffle until it clears the back edge of hood (FIGURE 10). Slide the baffle filter backward clearing the catch and rest securely on back edge of hood (FIGURE 11).

Disconnect the main electrical supply before servicing this range hood. Touching electrical connectors or other exposed electrical circuitry inside the range hood when energized could result in death, serious bodily injury, or property damage.
- Page 22 allow grease to accumulate on fan, filter, or baffles. The stainless steel baffles supplied are designed to filter out residue and grease. These baffles do not need to be replaced regularly but must be kept clean to avoid risk of fire. Baffles should be cleaned after every 30 hours of use or once a month (whichever is first).
- Page 23 Slide the baffle filter out of front channel of hood (FIGURE 14). If the baffles contain a charcoal filter (purification systems), remove the charcoal filter and bracket assembly by releasing the screws around the perimeter before cleaning (FIGURE 15). Clean the stainless steel baffles by hand or dishwasher. If the baffles are heavily soiled, spray on Formula 409 or equivalent degreasing detergent and leave to soak.
- Page 24 Angle the baffle filter and insert front edge into front channel of hood (FIGURE 16). Bring up the rear edge of baffle until it clears the back edge of hood (FIGURE 17). Slide the baffle filter backward clearing the catch and rest securely on back edge of hood (FIGURE 18).
- Page 25 place charcoal filters in the dishwasher. Replace charcoal filters (FIGURE 15, page 23) when required. Replacements are sold by your retailer. Ensure the hood circuit breaker is OFF and lights are OFF. The light bulbs become extremely hot when turned on. touch bulbs until switched off and cooled.
