Before Calling for Service

Issue
The range hood doesn't turn on
The range hood turns on but the
LED light doesn't
The range hood vibrates when the
blower is on
The blower or fan seems weak
The lights work but the blower is
not spinning at all or is rattling
The hood is not venting out properly
Possible Cause / Solution
• Check if the range hood is plugged in. Make sure that all power
is turned ON, the fuse isn't blown and all electrical wirings are
properly connected.
• Open the black box inside the hood unit to check the Glass Fuse
(covered by a blue plastic) on the circuit board. If the fuse is
blown, please make sure the 5 wires Speed Control Cable is not
exposed and replace the 120V/250V 3A fuse.
• Replace the defective LED assembly. Refer to Range Hood Care
section for instructions.
• Check and tighten the mounting screws to secure the hood to
the cabinet or wall properly.
• Check that the duct size used is at least 6" a for 6" blower or 8" for
8" blower and does not have sections with smaller sizes between
the hood and the Roof/Wall Cap. Range hood WILL NOT function
efficiently with insufficient duct size. For example: 7" duct over 6"
top vent and not sealed properly.
• Check if the duct is clogged or the damper (half-circular flapper)
is not installed correctly or opening properly. A tight mesh on a
side wall cap might also cause restriction to the air flow.
• The blower might be jammed or scraping the bottom due to
shipping damage.
• Disconnect the power cord, remove the fan grill and the fan
blade, might see the fan blade or/and motor is not in the proper
position (offset from the center). Try to fix/adjust it or please
contact us immediately.
• Make sure the distance between the stove top and the bottom
of the hood is within recommended 24" and 30" in distance.
*Due to different ceiling height configurations, the recommended
height may not be applicable.
• Reduce the number of elbows and length of duct work. Check if
all joints are properly connected, taped and sealed.
• Make sure the power is on high speed for heavy cooking.
