RANGE HOOD USE

Thermal Protector
The range hood is equipped with a thermal protector to avoid
overheating conditions. If the range hood shuts off while in use,
move fan slider switch to Off to turn off the range hood. Wait
approximately 60 minutes, then move slider to On to restart the
range hood.
Operating the heat lamp
The heat lamps are designed to keep food warm prior to serving.
The cooktop surface is too far away from the heat lamp to be
used as a shelf.
C For best results, install a metal shelf to hold the food closer to the
lamps. The optimum distance between the shelf and the range
hood is 12" (30.5 cm) to 15" (38.1 cm).
For best performance, food should be placed directly under the
heat lamps, not between them. You may need to adjust your food
placement to match your needs.
1. Install heat lamp bulbs into heat lamp sockets.
Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or
after cooking.
Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
2. To turn on the heat lamps, move the switch to the "I" position.

NOTE: Heat lamp bulbs should be rated to a maximum of
175 watts each. For best performance, 175 watt maximum,
PAR38 type, red heat lamp bulbs are recommended. Bulb
performance varies. Lower wattage and clear bulbs decrease
the performance.
