Heat Lamp (some models)
The buttons marked “L” and “R” independently control the 
left and right infrared heating lamps, turning the lights on or 
off. 
Heat Sensor 
Note: 
The heat sensor features listed below are not available 
when the hood is installed with the remote control 
accessory. 
Oven Temperature Condition
The high temperature sensor protects the hood from high 
temperatures which may damage components. The control 
is set to activate at 161° F (72° C) and reset at 140°F (60° 
C). When activated, the ventilator will turn on low and the 
corresponding LED will blink, indicating an oven 
temperature condition. 
While the high temperature sensor is activated, the blower 
speed can be changed or turned off. If the blower is turned 
off, the corresponding LED will blink. Light controls will 
remain operational. When the control sensor reaches 
140°F (60° C), a reset will occur. During reset, the control 
will revert back to the operational state prior to the high 
temperature condition. 
High Temperature Fault Condition
The circuit is equipped with an alarm indicating that the 
heat sensor protection is not working due to a damaged 
sensor. In the case of this extreme condition, the three 
speed indicator LEDs will start blinking. All the controls will 
be operational except for the speed indicators. 
Care and Cleaning
WARNING:
Be sure the entire appliance (including the 
grease filters and light bulbs) has cooled and 
grease has solidified before attempting to clean 
any part of the appliance.
To Clean Hood Surface 
For general care, wipe the outside of the stainless steel 
with sudsy water or household cleaners such as 
Fantastik
®
 or Formula 409
®
, rinse well and dry with a 
clean soft cloth to avoid water marks. 
Wipe and dry stainless steel in the same direction as 
the grain. Avoid using too much pressure, which may 
mar the surface. 
Do not use abrasive products such as steel wool. 
To remove finger prints and give added shine, use a 
stainless steel cleaner such as Stainless Steel Magic
®
Hadco Stainless Steel Polish, Sprayway
®
 Stainless 
Steel Polish and Cleaner, or 3M Stainless Steel 
Cleaner and Polish.
Do not allow any cleaning compounds to remain in 
contact with stainless steel for extended periods.
The use of brand names is intended only to indicate a type 
of cleaner. This does not constitute an endorsement. The 
omission of any brand name cleaner does not imply its 
adequacy or inadequacy. Many products are regional in 
distribution and can be found in the local markets. It is 
imperative that all products be used in strict accordance 
with instructions on the package. 
To Clean Filters and Troughs 
Your hood has removable aluminum or stainless steel 
filters, stainless steel grease troughs and stainless steel 
side panels. They must be cleaned when the filter light 
illuminates on the control panel or whenever they collect 
grease. When used over a grill, wok or other high grease 
applications, more frequent cleaning may be required. 
To Remove Filters and Grease Troughs: 
Turn the fan and lights off. Be sure filters are cool and 
grease has congealed before removal.
Remove in the following order:
1) Filters — Start with center filters, push up, then 
pull out from the bottom.
2) Side Panels — Remove these the same way as 
the filters.
3) Grease Troughs — lift up and out.
The filters and grease troughs can be washed by hand 
or in the dishwasher. The front and side panels may be 
washed with warm soapy water and polished with 
stainless steel cleaner.
