IMPORTANT
We recommend that three people carry
out the installation.
Preparation
The vent hood should be on site before
final framing and wall finishing. This will
help to accurately locate the duct work and
electrical service.
Installation will be easier if the vent hood is
installed before the cooktop and
countertop are installed.
Ductwork and wiring locations:
Determine the exact location of the vent
hood.
Plan the route for venting exhaust to the
outdoors.
Use the shortest and straightest duct route
possible.For satisfactory performance
duct run should not exceed 100'
equivalent length for any duct
configurations.
Refer to “ Ductwork installation
guidelines” chart to compute the
maximum permissible length for duct
runs to the outdoors (fig. ).
Ducting installation guidelines
For safety reasons when ducting outdoors
(not using a recirculation kit),ducting must
vent directly outdoors (not into an attic,
underneath the house, into the garage or
into any enclosed space).
Keep duct runs as short and straight as
possible.
Duct fittings (elbows and transitions) reduce
air flow efficiency.
Back to back elbow and “S” turns give very
poor delivery and are not recommended.
Use a suitable 6” round duct.
Flexible metal round ducts should only be
used when no other duct fitting exists. limit
use to short lengths and do not crush when
making corners.
Fig.
CAUTION
Remove the carton carefully.
Wear gloves to protect against sharp edges.
WARNING
Remove the protective film covering the
product before putting into operation.

NOTE
The efficiency of the range hood depends on
the cleanliness of the intake and filters.
Grease should not be allowed to accumulate
on hood or filter.
Use a soft cloth moistened with hand-warm mildly
soapy water or household cleaning detergent.
Never use metal pads, chemical, abrasive
material or stiff brush to clean the appliance.
15 ENGLISH
User service-Do not repair or replace any
part of the appliance unless specifically
recommended in the manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
IMPORTANT
Clean the appliance in the following intervals:
Charcoal filters:
Aluminum filter: The filter collects grease,
smoke and dust so the filter is directly affecting the
efficiency of the range hood. If not cleaned, the
grease residue(potential flammable) will saturate
on the filter. Clean it with household cleaning
detergent. The filter is dishwasher safe.
Recirculation box: clean the ventilation openings
on the top sides.
If the model is not vented to the outside, the air
will be recirculated through disposable
charcoal filters that help remove smoke and
odors.
The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned, they
must be replaced regularly (depending on
range hood usage).
Note: Do not rinse or put charcoal filters in a
dishwasher.
Note: Charcoal filters are not included with the
range hood.
