Installation instructions and user’s manual for NAUTIKA kitchen hoods
TROUBLESHOOTING
1. If the range hood or halogen lights does not operate after installation:
• 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 determine whether it is caused by defective bulbs. See
REPLACING THE LIGHT
BULBS on page 16.
2. The range hood vibrates when the blower is on:
• The range hood might not have been secured properly on to the ceiling or wall. Check with your installer.
3. The blower or fan seems weak:
• Check that the duct size used is at least 6” (15 cm) or 3 ¼” X 10” (8.25 cm X 25 cm). Range hood WILL NOT
function efficiently
with insufficient duct size. For example: 8” (20.3 cm) duct over 6”(15 cm) hole and loosely secured.
• Check if duct is clogged or if damper unit (half-circular flapper) is not installed correctly or opening properly. A tight mesh on a side
wall cap unit might also cause restriction to the airflow.
4. The lights work but the blower is not spinning at all, is stuck or is rattling:
• The blower might be jammed or scraping the bottom due to shipping damage. Please contact your merchant immediately.

5. The hood is not venting out properly:
• Make sure the distance between the stovetop and the bottom of the hood is within 28”(71 cm) and 31” (78.8 cm). Due to different
ceiling height configuration, recommended height may not be applicable.
• Reduce the number of elbows and length of ductwork.
• Check if all joints are properly connected, sealed and taped.
• Make sure the power is on high speed for heavy cooking.
