read the “Range Hood Use” section.

RANGE HOOD USE

The range hood is designed to remove smoke, cooking vapors
and odors from the cooktop area. For best results, start the hood
before cooking and allow it to operate several minutes after the
cooking is complete to clear all smoke and odors from the
kitchen.
The range hood controls are located on the front of the canopy.

Sleep Mode

The range hood automatically enters Sleep Mode when not in

button lights will turn Off. To deactivate Sleep Mode, press any
button.

Auto Sense

Auto Sense allows the range hood fan to turn on automatically
when it senses heat higher than its allowable temperature limit.
When Auto Sense is On, the fan speed will increase or decrease
based on the temperature Auto Sense is measuring.
Auto Sense can be manually increased by pressing a higher fan
speed. The fan will run at the selected speed for 10 minutes
before returning to the speed selected for Auto Sense.
If Auto Sense is On, the Auto button light will turn Off and go into
Sleep Mode when the vent hood is not in use. If the vent hood is
turned On by the consumer or by Auto Sense, the Auto button
light will turn On.
To set Auto Sense:

Press AUTO.

To Select Auto Sense Cooktop Type:

NOTE: The range hood is factory-set for the gas cooktop mode.

Press and hold AUTO for 5 seconds to switch between the
gas cooktop and electric cooktop modes.

The Auto button light will flash 5 times when the range hood
is changed to the electric cooktop mode. Auto Sense is now
set to work with electric cooktops and ranges.

The Auto button light will flash 3 times when the range hood
is changed to the gas cooktop mode. Auto Sense is now set
to work with gas cooktops and ranges.

Changing the cooktop type will change the temperature limit
for Auto Sense to turn On. When the range hood senses a
high enough temperature, the fan will start automatically.
When the temperature drops below the set temperature limit,
the fan will stop automatically. The Auto button light will turn
Off after the range hood enters Sleep Mode, but Auto Sense
is still active.
