a.
Avoid the use of sharp elbows. Use 45 degrees instead, if possible.
b. DO NOT use REDUCERS. Keep the size of the duct the same, as per the manual. A reducer will
reduce the CFM of the hood and increase the noise.
c.
DO NOT use plenum boxes. Boxes create turbulence and make the hood inefficient. Use a smooth
elbow to guide the air outdoors.
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. Old and
worn filters must be replaced immediately.
•
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.
