1. If the range hood or 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. Check if the fuse is not blown and all electrical wiring
is properly connected.
Swap out light assembly to working ones to deter mine whether it is caused by defective bulbs. See
replacing the light bulbs
on Page 13.
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 if the motor is secured in place. If not, then tighten the motor in place. Check if the blower wheel is damaged.
3. The blower or fan seems weak:
Check that the duct sized used is at least 6”. Range hood WILL NOT function efficiently with insufficient duct size & 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 air flow.
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 us immediately.
The motor is defective, possibly seized - change the motor.
5.
The hood is not venting out properly
:
Make sure the distance between the stove top and the bottom of the hood is within 26” and 30” in distance.
Due to different ceiling height configura-
tions, 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.
6. The hood is noisier than normal
The duct is not secure and causes vibration.
The smaller duct size than required is being used.
7. Control panel is not active
Check to make sure the auto function is not on.
Operations:
Read and understand all instructions and warnings in this manual before operating the appliance. Save these instructions for future reference.
Always leave safety grills and filters in place. Without these components, operating blowers could catch on to hair, fingers and loose clothing.
NEVER dispose cigarette ashes, ignitable substances, or any foreign objects into blowers.
NEVER leave cooking unattended. When frying, oil in the pan can easily overheat and catch fire. The risk of self combustion is higher when the oil has
been used several times.
NEVER cook on “open” flames under the range hood. Check deep-fryers during use: Superheated oil may be flammable.
Cleaning:
The saturation of greasy residue in the blower and filters may cause increased inflammability. Keep unit clean and free of grease and residue build-
up at all times to prevent possible fires.
FILTERS MUST BE CLEANED PERIODICALLY AND FREE FROM ACCUMULATION OF COOKING RESIDUE.
DO NOT operate blowers when filters are removed. Never disassemble parts to clean without proper instructions. Disassembly is recommended to
be performed by qualified personnel only. Read and understand all instructions and warnings in this manual before proceeding.
