read the “Range Hood Use” section.
RANGE HOOD USE
The range hood is designed to remove smoke, cooking vapors
and odors from the cooktop area. For best results, start the hood
before cooking and allow it to operate several minutes after the
cooking is complete to clear all smoke and odors from the
kitchen.
The range hood controls are located on the front side of the
canopy.
Range Hood Controls

Operating the light
The Light On/Off button (A) controls both lights. Press once for

Operating the blower
The Blower On/Off button (B) turns the blower On or Off. The
Blower Speed buttons (C, D and E) set the desired speed and
