Press another time to set the lights on HIGH intensity. Pressing another time after the HIGH setting will turn OFF the lights. Each time the lights are turned ON, a beep is heard and LED indicators light up to show the corresponding intensity chosen (lower LED for LOW and both LEDs for HIGH). When lights are on (no matter the lighting level), press and hold this button until the beep sound ends; this will turn off the lights and save the chosen light intensity.

The LED modules included with this hood are the latest in LED cooktop illumination technology specially designed to operate in the elevated temperatures of cooking - offering bright lighting and lasting up to 25 times as long as a standard bulb and greater reliability than typical replacement LED bulbs.

FILTER CLEANING REMINDER: When it is time to clean the hood and filters (refer to Cleaning and Maintenance on page 7), the 3 blower button LED indicators will flash slowly for 30 seconds after turning the blower OFF. This will happen every time the blower is turned OFF until the filter cleaning reminder has been reset. Once the cleaning is done, reset the filter cleaning reminder indicators by pressing on blower button for 3 seconds during the 30 seconds the 3 blower button LED indicators flash slowly.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Proper maintenance of the Range Hood will assure proper performance of the unit.

MOTOR

The motor is permanently lubricated and never needs oiling. If the motor bearings make excessive or unusual noise, replace the motor with the exact service motor. The fan blade should also be replaced.

GREASE FILTER(S)

The grease filter(s) should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm dishwashing detergent solution. Clean all-metal filters using a non-phosphate detergent. Discoloration of the filters may occur if using phosphate detergents, or as a result of local water conditions - but this will not affect filter performance. This discoloration is not covered by the warranty.

NON-DUCTED RECIRCULATION FILTER(S)

The non-ducted recirculation filter(s) should be changed every 3 to 6 months. Replace more often if your cooking style generates extra grease, such as frying and wok cooking. Refer to installation instructions included with non-ducted recirculation filter(s).

FAN BLADE

The fan blade should be cleaned frequently. Use a clean cloth soaked with warm detergent solution.

STAINLESS STEEL CLEANING

Do:

• Regularly wash with clean cloth or rag soaked with warm water and mild soap or liquid dish detergent.
• Always clean in the direction of original polish lines.
• Always rinse well with clear water (2 or 3 times) after cleaning. Wipe dry completely.
• You may also use a specialized household stainless steel cleaner.

Don't:

• Use any steel or stainless steel wool or any other scrapers to remove stubborn dirt.
• Use any harsh or abrasive cleansers.
• Allow dirt to accumulate.
• Let plaster dust or any other construction residues reach the hood. During construction/renovation, cover the range hood to make sure no dust sticks to the stainless steel surface.

Avoid when choosing a detergent:

• Any cleaners that contain bleach will attack stainless steel.
• Any products containing: chloride, fluoride, iodide, bromide will deteriorate surfaces rapidly.
• Any combustible products used for cleaning such as acetone, alcohol, ether, benzol, etc., are highly explosive and should never be used close to a range.

PAINTED FINISH CLEANING:

Clean with warm water and mild detergent only. If discoloration occurs, use a finish polish such as automotive polish. (DO NOT use rough abrasive cleaner or porcelain cleaner.)

Install Ductwork (Ducted Installations Only)

Follow these steps for installing ductwork:

1. Determine whether the hood will discharge vertically (3-1/4" x 10" or 7" round), or horizontally (3-1/4" x 10" only).
2. Decide where the ductwork will run between the hood and the outdoors.
3. Choose a straight, short duct run to allow the hood to perform most efficiently. Long duct runs, elbows and transitions will reduce the performance of the hood. Use as few of them as possible. When possible, use at least 2 foot straight runs before any turns. Larger ductwork may be required for best performance with longer duct runs.
4. Install wall cap or roof cap (sold separately); ensure there is no leak in house insulation. Connect metal ductwork to cap and work back towards the hood location. Use 2" metal foil duct tape to seal the joints between ductwork sections.

NOTE: To use 6" round ducting, install a 3-1/4" x 10" to 6" round transition (not included). The performances may be affected.

Prepare the Hood Location

NOTE: Before starting installation, read all the steps of these instructions.

Use the illustration below to identify your kitchen cabinet type.

Cabinet Types: FRAMED CABINET, FRAMELESS CABINET

This manual covers 2 kinds of installation: the standard (without EZ1 brackets) and the EZ1 one-person installation system (using included template and brackets). Please note that the EZ1 one-person installation system is not available for the BKSA2 and NKSA2 Series. However, all Series range hoods can be installed in the standard way. For the standard installation, go to page 20.

EZ1 one-person installation system

EZ1 installation is designed for use with kitchen cabinets that have the same width designation as the range hood width. If the cabinet is greater than 1/2" wider than the range hood width, please use the standard installation method.

1. Use the proper template for vertical OR horizontal discharge (included) for placement of ductwork and electrical cutout in cabinet or wall. For a non-ducted installation, DO NOT cut a duct access hole, only cut the hole for electrical wiring. If replacing a hood and plan to use the existing duct and electrical, steps 2 to 5 may not be necessary. If so, skip to step 6.
2. Measure and mark the hood center line on cabinet bottom.
3. Align the center line on template with the hood center line marked on the bottom of the cabinet, placing the edge (where indicated) of the template against back wall. When using with framed cabinet for vertical exhaust installation, fold over rear edge of template equal to the depth of the cabinet frame at the wall (use graduations on template, C locations on template). Tape the template in place. NOTE: When facing the installation, A and B (on template) must be at right.
4. Drill a 1/8" dia. pilot hole for house wiring, at A location on template.
5. Use a sharp pencil or 1/8" drill bit to mark the locations for the appropriate duct access holes (16 locations for 7" round duct, or 4 corner locations for rectangular duct). Remove the template.
6. Draw the border for the exhaust ducting by linking its marks (16 for round duct and 4 for rectangular duct), then cut the opening in the cabinet bottom (vertical exhaust) or in the wall (horizontal exhaust). Drill the house wiring hole by using a 1-1/4" hole saw centered with the pilot hole previously made in step 4.
7. Install the proper installation brackets according to the type of cabinet (framed or frameless). See below.

Framed Cabinet Installation: Refer to the marking on the brackets to determine the correct installation side and orientation. Mate the corresponding bracket to the cabinet side frame, while placing the rear end of the bracket against the wall. Mark 3 holes (there are 6 holes but only 3 are necessary). Remove the bracket. Using a 7/64" drill bit, drill 3 holes where marked. Assemble the bracket to the side frame using a Phillips screwdriver and 3 provided no. 8 x 5/8" wood screws. Repeat for the other side frame.

Frameless Cabinet Installation: Refer to the marking on brackets to determine the correct installation side and orientation. Align the corresponding bracket to the cabinet side, while placing the rear end of the bracket against the wall. Draw a line on the outer edge of the bracket. Slide the bracket towards the center of the cabinet and align the side edge to the marked line, keeping the rear end edge leaning on the wall. Mark 3 holes. Remove the bracket. Using a 7/64" drill bit, drill 3 holes where marked. Assemble the bracket to the cabinet bottom using a Phillips screwdriver and 3 provided countersunk wood screws. Repeat for the other cabinet side.

Install the Hood (EZ1 Bracket)

NOTE: The following procedure applies to both framed or frameless cabinet installations.

1. Run house power cable between service panel and hood location.
2. There are 2 pairs of recessed holes on each side of the top of the hood (on rear: A and B, on front C and D); these holes allow the range hood to hang on the brackets (previously installed).
3. HORIZONTAL EXHAUST INSTALLATION ONLY: Temporarily hang the hood on the brackets using its 2 recessed REAR HOLES (A and B). While holding the hood, run the house power cable into the hood through the strain relief previously installed in step 6 on page 13.
4. Unhook the rear holes from the brackets and hang the hood using its 2 recessed FRONT HOLES (C and D). While holding the hood, attach the power cable to the hood using the strain relief.
5. VERTICAL EXHAUST INSTALLATION AND NON-DUCTED INSTALLATION ONLY: Hang the hood on the brackets using the 2 recessed FRONT HOLES (C and D). While holding the hood, run the house power cable into the hood through the strain relief previously installed in step 6 on page 13. Attach power cable to the hood.
6. DUCTED INSTALLATION ONLY: Connect the ductwork to the hood and use metal foil duct tape to make joints secure and air-tight. Make sure the damper assembly (or round duct plate) enters the ductwork and that the damper opens and closes freely.
7. For framed cabinet, secure the hood to the EZ1 brackets using 4 no. 8-18 x 1/2" metal screws (included in parts bag). Insert 2 screws per side, in the slots.
8. For frameless cabinet, secure the hood to the cabinet using 4 no. 8 x 5/8" round head wood screws (included in parts bag). Insert 2 screws per side, in the slots.

Standard Installation (without EZ1 brackets)

1. Use the proper diagram below for placement of ductwork and electrical cutout in cabinet or wall. For a non-ducted installation, DO NOT cut a duct access hole, only cut the hole for electrical wiring.

Whenever possible, each provision of this Limited Warranty shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision is held to be prohibited or invalid, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the other remaining provisions of the Limited Warranty.

Remedy

During the applicable limited warranty period, the Company will, at its option, provide replacement parts for, or repair or replace, without charge, any Product or part thereof, to the extent the Company finds it to be covered by and in breach of this limited warranty under normal use and service. The Company will ship the repaired or replaced Product or replacement parts to you at no charge. You are responsible for all costs for removal, reinstallation and shipping, insurance or other freight charges incurred in the shipment of the Product or part to the Company. If you must send the Product or part to the Company, as instructed by the Company, you must properly pack the Product or part--the Company is not responsible for damage in transit. The Company reserves the right to utilize reconditioned, refurbished, repaired or remanufactured Products or parts in the warranty repair or replacement process. Such Products and parts will be comparable in function and performance to an original Product or part and warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period (or such longer period as may be required by applicable law). Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to refund the money actually paid by you for the Product in lieu of repair or replacement. If the Product or component is no longer available, replacement may be made with a similar product of equal or greater value, at Company's sole discretion. This is your sole and exclusive remedy for breach of this limited warranty.

Exclusion of Damages

THE COMPANY'S OBLIGATION TO PROVIDE REPLACEMENT PARTS, OR REPAIR, REPLACE OR REFUND, AT THE COMPANY'S OPTION, SHALL BE YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY AND THE COMPANY'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE OBLIGATION. THE COMPANY SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE PRODUCT, ITS USE OR PERFORMANCE. Incidental damages include but are not limited to such damages as loss of time and loss of use. Consequential damages include but are not limited to the cost of repairing or replacing other property which was damaged if the Product does not work properly. THE COMPANY SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU, OR TO ANYONE CLAIMING UNDER YOU, FOR ANY OTHER OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES ARISING OUT OF BREACH OF CONTRACT OR WARRANTY, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER TORT OR ANY THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY, WITH RESPECT TO THE PRODUCT OR THE COMPANY'S ACTS OR OMISSIONS OR OTHERWISE. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. The disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations of liability under this warranty will not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law.

This warranty covers only replacement or repair of defective Products or parts thereof at the Company's main facility and does not include the cost of field service travel and living expenses.

Any assistance the Company provides to or procures for you outside the terms, limitations or exclusions of this limited warranty will not constitute a waiver of such terms, limitations or exclusions, nor will such assistance extend or revive the warranty.

The Company will not reimburse you for any expenses incurred by you in repairing or replacing any defective Product, except for those incurred with the Company's prior written permission.
