OPERATION
Always turn ON your hood before you begin cooking in order
to establish an air flow in the kitchen. Let the blower run for a
few minutes to clear the air after you turn off the range. This
will help keep the whole kitchen cleaner and brighter.

HEAT SENTRY™
Your hood is equipped with a HEAT SENTRY™ thermostat.
This thermostat is a device that will turn on or speed up the
blower if it senses excessive heat above the cooking surface.
1) If blower is OFF - it turns blower ON to high speed.
2) If blower is ON at a lower speed setting - it turns blower up
to HIGH speed.
When the temperature level drops to normal, the blower will
return to its original setting.
WARNING: The HEAT SENTRY™ thermostat can
start the blower even if the hood is turned OFF.
When this occurs, it is impossible to turn the
blower OFF with the switch. If you must stop
the blower, do it from the main electrical panel.
