Troubleshooting
1. If the range hood or halogen light does not operate
after installation:
2. The range hood vibrates when the blower is on:
3. The blower or fan seems weak:
4. The lights work but the blower is not spinning at all,
is stuck or is rattling.
5. The hood is not venting out properly:
• Check if the range hood has been plugged in, make
sure that all power has been turned back ON, fused
not blown and all electrical wiring are properly
connected.
• Swap out light assembly to working ones to deter-
mine whether it is caused by defective bulbs.
• The range hood might not have been
properly
secured
.
• Check that the duct size used is at least 6” or 3-1/4
x 10”. Range hood WILL NOT function efficiently
with insufficient duct size. For example:
a
7” duct
over
a
6” hole
WILL NOT FIT PROPERLY.
• Check if duct is clogged or if damper unit (half-cir-
cular flapper) is not installed correctly or
does not
open
properly. A tight mesh on a side wall cap unit
might also cause restriction to the air flow.
• The blower might be jammed or scraping the
bottom due to shipping damage. Please
,
contact
us immediately.
• Make sure the distance between the stove top and
the bottom of the hood is
correct
. *Due to different
ceiling height configurations, recommended height
may not be applicable. Reduce the number of
elbows and length of duct work. Check if all joints
are properly connected,
sealed, and taped.
Make sure the power is
set to
high for heavy
cooking.
