General Advice
Ensure that the grease filters are in
place. Without these components,
operating blowers could catch on to
hair, fingers and loose clothing.
Keep fan, filters and surfaces clean
of grease and fat. Always turn hood
fan ON when cooking. NEVER leave
cooking unattended.
NEVER dispose cigarette ashes,
ignitable substances or any foreign
objects into blowers.
Cooking that generates flame is not
recommended as this hood is
equipped with a thermal overload
that will shut down the motor if it
senses excessive heat. When
frying, oil in the pan can easily
overheat and ignite. Heat oil slowly
in an appropriately sized pot
(covering the entire burner) to
reduce the risk of boiling over and
burning
In the event of a range top grease
fire, observe the following:
Switch OFF the range hood. Turn
off the cook top then smother flames
with a close fitting lid, cookie sheet
or other metal tray. If the flames do
not go out immediately.
EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE
DEPARTMENT. Never pick up a
flaming pan – you may be burned.
DO NOT USE WATER including wet
dishcloths or towels, as a violent
steam explosion may occur.

Generally, the grease filter should
be washed on a regular basis to
avoid grease filter fires.
The blower should be turned on for
approximately 5 minutes before
cooking in order to establish air
currents upward through the hood.
Use the low speeds for normal use
and the higher speeds for strong
odors and fumes.
