Operation Cautions:
•
Read and understand all instructions and warnings in this manual before operating the appliance.
•
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.
10. TROUBLESHOOTING
If the range hood or LED
light 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 deter-mine whether it is
caused by defective bulbs. See

.
The range hood vibrates
when the blower is on
•
The range hood might not have been secured properly on to the cabinet or
wall.
The blower or fan seems
weak
•
Check that the duct sized used is at least 6” or 3-1/4 x 10”. Range hood
WILL NOT function efficiently with insufficient duct size. For example:
7” duct over 6” top vent 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 air flow.
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.
•
Disconnect the power cord, remove the fan grill and the fan blade, might
see the fan blade or/and motor is not in the proper position (offset from the
center). Try to fix/adjust it or please contact us immediately.
The hood is not venting out
properly
•
Make sure the distance between the stove top and the bottom of the hood is
within recommended 27” and 30” in distance. *
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 on high speed for heavy cooking.
