CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
For performance, appearance, and health reasons, clean filter,
fan and grease-laden surfaces. Use only a clean cloth and mild
detergent solution on stainless and painted surfaces. Clean all-
metal filters in the dishwasher.
The motor is permanently lubricated and never needs oiling. If
the motor bearings make excessive or unusual noise, replace
the motor with the exact service motor. The impeller should also
be replaced.
Use 120 V, 50 W, shielded halogen bulbs - MR16 or PAR16 with
GU10 base. Purchase bulbs separately.
The grease filters, bottom panel, and blower wheel should be
cleaned frequently. Use a warm detergent solution. The grease
filters and blower wheel are dishwasher safe.
Note: Some minerals, when in contact with dishwasher
soap additives, may cause filters to discolor. This discol-
oration is not covered by the warranty.

HOOD HOOD
1 Determine whether hood will discharge vertically or hori-
zontally. For vertical or horizontal discharge, run ductwork
between the hood location and a roof cap or wall cap. For
best results, use a minimum number of transitions and
elbows.
OPERATION
Always turn the hood ON before cooking in order to establish an
air flow in the kitchen. After turning off the range, let the hood run
for a few minutes to clear the air.
HEAT SENTRY™
The hood is equipped with a Heat Sentry™ thermostat. This safety
device will turn on or speed up the blower if it senses excess heat
above the cooking surface.
If the blower is not on, or if it is running at low speed, the Heat
Senttry™ will override the normal blower control and trun the
blower on the high speed. When the temperature level drops to
normal levels, the blower will return to its original setting.
