Operation
Operating the Hood
For the best results, the blower should be turned on for
about 5 minutes before cooking in order to establish air
currents upward through the hood. Thus when heat,
smoke, moisture, grease and cooking odors are produced,
they will be carried outside instead of drifting into other
rooms. Use the low speeds for normal use and the higher
speed for strong odors or fumes.
Drafts across the range or cooktop will reduce the
effectiveness of the hood. Such drafts should be prevented
when possible.
Ventilation in the kitchen is most efficient when where the
only air currents are those created by the blower itself.

Off
Pressing the button once turns the blower off and resets
the control.
Fan Speed
Pressing the button once, from an "off" state, turns the
blower on low. Each successive press of the button
increases the fan speed until HIGH speed is reached, then
the fan cycles back to the low speed.
The LEDs above this button indicate the current fan speed.
When the fan is on, the corresponding LED is illuminated.
1 — LOW
2 — MED
3 — HIGH
Auto
(custom insert control panel only)
When in Auto mode, the hood automatically turns the
blower on, depending on the amount of heat the control
senses. It automatically adjusts every 5 minutes. If the
control does not sense a high level of heat, it will turn the
blower off.
Auto feature is disabled if a remote control is installed.
Clean Filter Reminder
After 40 hours of operation, the clean filter reminder LED
above this button will illuminate indicating that the filters
need to be cleaned. When this indicator illuminates, clean
the filters as instructed on page 6. After cleaning, press this
button for 3 seconds to reset the 40-hour period and turn
the LED off.
Delay (shut off)
If the blower is off when the DELAY button is pressed, the
blower will turn on to the HIGH speed setting for 10
minutes. At the end of the cycle the blower will turn off.
If the blower is on when the DELAY button is pressed, the
blower runs for 10 minutes at the current speed then turns
off.
During the 10 minute timed period, the LED above the
DELAY button is illuminated.
To interrupt a timed period, press fan speed or OFF button.
