Care and cleaning of the vent hood. aappliancescom
Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning or servicing any part of the
vent hood.
Reusable Metal Grease Filters
The hood has 2 metal reusable
grease filters.
The metal filters trap grease
released by foods on the cooktop.
They also help prevent flaming
foods on the cooktop flom
damaging the inside of the hood.
For this reason, the filters must
ALWAYS be in place when the
hood is used. The grease filters
should be cleaned once a month,
or as needed.
Toclean the grease filters, soak
them and then swish them around
in hot water and detergent.
Don't use ammonia or ammonia
products because they will darken
the metal. Do not use abrasives or
oven cleaners, i,ight brushing can
be used to remove embedded dirt.
Rinse, shake and let them dry
before replacing.
To remove:
Grasp the filter handle and pull it
up, fbrward and out.
Toreplace:
[_ Hold the filter at the bottom
with the handle.
[_ Place the top end of the filter
against the inside flont of the
hood.
[_ Slide it up until it stops and
push the bottom end back
until it snaps into place.

ADVANCE PLANNING
Ductwork Planning
. This hood may be vented vertically through upper
cabinets, soffit or ceiling. A duct transition piece is
supplied for vertical exhaust. Use locally supplied
elbows to vent horizontally through the rear wall.
See page 13.
* Determine the exact location of the vent hood.
* Plan the route for venting exhaust to the outdoors°
* Use the shortest and straightest duct rotlte possible.
For safisfhctory peffbrmance, duct run should not
exceed 100 R. equivalent length for any duct
configurations.
* Refer to "Duct Fittings" chart to compute the maximum
permissible length for duct runs to the outdoors.
* Use metal duct_,vork only.
* A transition piece for 7" round duct is supplied. Use
7" rotuxd duct or you may use 3-1/4" x 12" rectangular.
* Install a wall cap or roof cap with damper at the
exterior opening. Order the wall or roof cap and
any transition needed in advance.
Kit -JXDW1
Order kitJXDW1 if your installation requires horizon ml
ducfing fi'om the top of the hood through the back _vtll and:
* You have an 8 fL ceiling and need to use aJXCH
Series Chimney Corm; or
* You have a 12" cabinet or 12" soffit that the hood is to
be mounted beneath.
This kit provides a duct transition fiom 7" round to
3¼" x 10" rectangular for through-the-wall venting.
Wall Framing for Adequate Support
* This vent hood is heavy. Adequate structural support
must be provided. The hood must be secured to
vertical studs in the wall. See page 14.
* We strongly recommend that the vent hood with
duct cover be on site before final f]aming and wall
finishing. This will also help to accurately locate the
ductwork and electrical service.

DUCT COVER REQUIREMENTS
We recommend that the vent hood and decorative
duct cover (if used) be on site before final flaming and
wall finishing. This will help to accurately locate studs,
ductwork and electrical service. Read these instructions
to determine if the duct cover accesso_ T can be used for
your installation situation.
Duct Cover Accessory:
* Use the decorative duct
cover to conceal duct_,vork
running flom the top of
the hood to the ceiling°
* The duct cover accessory
consists of 2 pieces. The
outside piece is 12" high,
the inside piece is 22".
Nested together they are
24" rain., expanding to
a total maximum height
of 34 ".
* The outside piece can
be used alone to fill a
12" height.
* For heights over 12", the
ceiling bracket must be
installed to secure the
cover at the top.
To avoid unsightly gaps, plan the hood installation height
for duct cover use.
* The cover will fit a 12" rain. height flom the top of the
hood to the ceiling, or 24" rain. and expanding up to
34" flom the top of the hood to the ceiling.
THE DUCT COVER CANNOT BE USED WHEN THE
DISTANCE ABOVE THE TOP OF THE HOOD IS
BETWEEN 12 "AND 24".
Review the ff_llowing examples to ensure a trouble flee

DETERMINE HOOD, DUCTWORK AND WIRING LOCATIONS
• Keep the wood support piece and its screws for
later h_stallation. Do not discard.
• Measure desired distance flom the bottom of the
hood to the cooking surf_ce, 24" rain. to 36 "Max.
Refer to the previous page if the access<n T duct cover
will be used.
• Use a level to draw a horizontal line indicating the
bottom of the hood.
• Use a level to draw the cooktop centerline location.
• Measure 15-3/8 "up flom the horizontal line fin the
bottom of the hood. Draw another horizontal line.
• Measure 18" up flom the line for the botton_ of the
hood, draw another horizontal line to indicate the
top of the hood.
FOR VERTICAL (Straight Up) DUCTING:
*If venting out the ceiling, extend the centerline
fbrward on the ceiling.
- Measure 6-7/8" flom drywall to mark centerline fin a
7-1/2" dia. duct hole on the ceiling.
- If drywall is not present, add drywall thickness to the
