OPERATION
Always turn the hood ON before cooking in order to establish an
air flow in the kitchen. After turning off the range, let the hood run
for a few minutes to clear the air.
Operate the hood as follows:

NOTE:
This hood utilizes an offset blower design to achieve greater
performance and lower sound levels. As a result, you may notice
that cooking impurities are more attracted to one side or appear
to be pulled-in faster than they appear on the opposite side. This
is completely normal. The hood has been designed and tested to
provide good capture of cooking impurities and odors under all
normal cooking conditions regardless of the cooking location on the
cooktop. Please note that cooking on the rear burners will always
result in the best capture results, regardless of the hood design.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
For performance, appearance, and health reasons, clean filter,
fan and grease-laden surfaces. Use only a clean cloth and mild
detergent solution on stainless and painted surfaces.
Clean all-metal filters in the dishwasher using a non-phosphate
detergent. Discoloration of the filter 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.
Clean the non-duct recirculating filter surfaces frequently with
a damp cloth and a mild detergent. DO NOT immerse filters in
water or put in dishwasher. The special “Clean Sense” feature
indicates when the filter is to be replaced. The blue and yellow
strips will blend to green when it is time to change the filter. The
“Clean Sense” feature works best when facing toward the cook-
ing surface. Change the non-duct recirculating filters every 6
months. For replacement non-duct recirculating filters - purchase
S99010353 or Model BPPF30 for 30” hoods, or S99010354 or
Model BPPF36 for 36” hoods.
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 impeller should also
be replaced.
Use 120
V, 35
W, shielded halogen bulbs - MR16 with GU10 base.
Purchase bulbs separately.

HOODHOOD
1 Determine whether hood will discharge vertically (3¼”
x 10” or 7” Round), or horizontally (3¼” x 10” only). For
vertical or horizontal discharge, run ductwork between
the hood location and a roof cap or wall cap. For best
results, use a minimum number of transitons and elbows.
