Operating Your Range Hood

never operate the range hood without the filters in 

place. also, do not operate the hood with grimy or 

grease-laden filters. personal injury, fire or damage to 

the range hood could result.

Important Operating Tips

always use the blower when using the cooktop or 

• 

range.
turn the blower on a few minutes before starting to 

• 

cook to establish an airflow pattern in the room.
adjust the fan speed according to the volume and 

• 

weight of the food you are cooking.
shut nearby windows and doors, turn off ceiling fans 

• 

and close nearby heating and air conditioning out-

lets to reduce air currents around the hood.
place your largest pots and pans on the back burn-

• 

ers when possible.
in the interest of safety, heat oils and fats slowly.

Energy Saving Tips

Do not operate the blower at a speed higher than

necessary to remove heat and smoke. running at 

too high a speed will draw in air from outside the 

house, increasing heating and cooling costs.
Keep the filters and hood surfaces free of grease 

• 

and grime to improve efficiency.
turn the blower off as soon as all smoke and odors 

• 

have been cleared.
select cookware of the proper size, material and 

• 

construction for the cooking task. always use lids on 

cookware to retain heat and moisture.
minimize the amount of liquid used to cook food.
