[. . . ] Range Hood Extractor de Aire Hotte de Cuisiniere User Manual Model HHX3030 Guide de l'Utilisateur HHX3030 Manual del Usuario Modelo HHX3030 English SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Warning!­ To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, always exercise basic safety precautions, including the following: 1. Read all instructions before using the appliance. Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this user manual. [. . . ] Your range hood is supplied with a 3-1/4" x 10" damper frame for a transition piece from the hood to the ducting. Below is a brief ducting installation description. Your installation will depend on whether there is an existing ducting or whether you need to install a ducting run. For the best performance, use the shortest possible ducting path and the least amount of elbows when discharging horizontally or vertically. Vertical Discharge ­ Vertical discharge is the most common method of hood installation. If your kitchen has an attic space above, the ducting may be run through the cupboard and the attic to a roof cap. Use a 7" round duct (not included). Another option, if your kitchen has a soffit above the cabinet, is to run the duct up into the soffit and then discharge the air horizontally through the outside wall to a wall cap. Horizontal Discharge - If the range is located against an outside wall, then horizontal discharging is ideal, provided there are no obstructions such as wall joists or places where openings are difficult to make. If a wall cap is used directly off the back of the hood, special care must be taken to ensure that the damper in the damper/duct connector on the hood and the damper in the wall cap do not interfere with each other when the range hood is operating. This could result in either inadequate air delivery or back drafts. If this condition exists, remove the hood damper flap. Sometimes when using a wall cap, it is easier to duct vertically and than to use an elbow. Ductless ­ In ductless installations, air is vented back into the kitchen through the opening in the range hood grille. If you do not anticipate heavy cooking, this method may be preferable. Ductless installation requires the use of a charcoal filters (included) to remove odors, which should be replaced at regular intervals depending on use. Check with your local retailer or dealer for replacements. Note: This filter is not dishwasher safe!It will not be necessary to remove any duct knockouts, however you must remove the vent cover from the slots on the front of the rangehood. Save the vent cover for possible future use. 6 English Preparation of Electrical Connections Note: If replacing an existing hood, the electrical cable may need to be re-routed to the desired position. Determine the location of the electrical cable to connect to the range hood (Fig. The preferred location for the electrical connector, vertical or horizontal, will depend on the existing installation or ease of routing wiring. [. . . ] If you do not see a duct, your unit may be venting through the back wall. Light does not turn on (but fan turns on). This could be because the bulb has burned out. If the light still does not work, either the light switch or the lamp-holder socket is defective. Both can be replaced without removing the range hood from the wall or cabinet. Night light does not turn on. [. . . ]
