NOTE
This hood utilizes an offset blower design to achieve greater
performance and lower sound levels. As a result, you may notice
that cooking impurities are more attracted to one side or appear
to be pulled-in faster than they appear on the opposite side.This
is completely normal. The hood has been designed and tested
to provide good capture of cooking impurities and odors under
all normal cooking conditions regardless of the cooking location
on the cooktop. Please note that cooking on the rear burners will
always result in the best capture of cooking impurities, regardless
of the hood design.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
PREPARE HOOD LOCATION
For performance, appearance, and health reasons, clean filter,
fan and grease-laden surfaces. Use only a clean cloth and mild
detergent solution on stainless and painted surfaces.
Clean all-metal filters in the dishwasher using a non-phosphate
detergent. Discoloration of the filter may occur if using phosphate
detergents, or as a result of local water conditions - but this will
not affect filter performance. This discoloration is not covered by
the warranty.
Clean the non-duct recirculating filter surfaces frequently with a
damp cloth and a mild detergent. DO NOT immerse filters in water
or put in dishwasher.The special "Clean Sense"feature indicates
when the filter is to be replaced.The dotted lines on the indicator
strip will change to solid wide lines when it is time to change the
filter. The "Clean Sense" feature works best when facing toward
the cooking surface. Change the non-duct recirculating filters
every 6 months. For replacement non-duct recirculating filters -
purchase S99010360 or Model BPPF42.
The motor is permanently lubricated and never needs oiling. If
the motor bearings make excessive or unusual noise, replace
the motor with the exact service motor. The impeller should also
be replaced.
Use 120V, 35W, shielded halogen bulbs - MR16 with GU10 base.
Purchase bulbs separately.

(For horizontal discharge)
Determine whether hood will discharge vertically (3W'
x 10" or 7" Round), or horizontally (3W'x 10" only). For
vertical or horizontal discharge, run ductwork between
the hood location and a roof cap or wall cap. For best
results, use a minimum number of transitions and
elbows.
