INSTALL THE DUCTWORK
NOTE: To reduce metal ductwork, the risk of fire, use only
1. Decide where the ductwork will run between the hood and the outside.
2. A straight, short duct run will allow the hood to perform most efficiently.
3. Long duct runs, elbows, and transitions wilI reduce the performance of the hood. Use as few of them as possible. Larger ducting may be required for best performance with longer duct runs.
4. install a roof or wall cap. Connect round metal ductwork to cap and work back towards hood location. Use duct tape to seal the joints between ductwork sections.
INSTALL MOUNTING BRACKET
1. Construct wood wall framing that is flush with interior surface of wail studs. Make sure:
a) the framing is centered over installation location.
b) the height of the framing wilI allow the mounting bracket to be secured to the framing within the dimensions shown.
2. Afterwall surface is finished secure mounting bracket to framing using dimensions shown.
INSTALL THE HOOD
1. Hang the hood from the bracket through the rectangular cut-out on the back of the hood. Cut-out is larger than the bracket to allow for horizontal adjustment. The bottom of the hood should be 24" to 30" above the cooking surface.
2. Secure the hood mounting screws. Use drywall anchors, provided, if wall studs or framing are not available.

Charcoal Filter
The charcoal filter should be changed every 6 months. To remove the filter press inward on the clamp and rotate the filter downward until the 2 tabs can be removed from the housing.
Hood Cleaning
Stainless steel is one of the easiest materials to keep clean. Occasional care will help preserve its fine appearance.
Cleaning tips:
• Hot water with soap or detergent is all that is usually needed.
• Follow all cleaning by rinsing with clear water. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth to avoid water marks.
• For discolorations or deposits that persist, use a non-scratching household cleanser or stainless steel polishing powder with a little water and a soft cloth.
• For stubborn cases, use a plastic scouring pad or soft bristle brush together with cleanser and water. Rub lightly in direction of polishing lines or "grain" of the stainless finish. Avoid using too much pressure which may mar the surface.
• DO NOT allow deposits to remain for long periods of time.
• DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface causing rust.
• DO NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain in contact with stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these compounds contain chemicals which may be harmful. Rinse with water after exposure and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
Painted surfaces should be cleaned with warm water and mild detergent only.
