OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Always turn your hood on before you begin cooking to establish an air flow

The blower speed is set using the slide control,
located to the right of the drawer.

the thermostat will sense excessive cooking heat,
override the norn-lal blower control and turn the blower

will then automatically return to its original setting.

Light Bulb Replacement
This hood uses an F20TI2 fluorescent tube and an
FS-2 starter, which are available at most hardware
stores or home centers.
If the tube flickers or does not light, check the prongs
on the ends of the tube to make sure they are properly
seated in the tube holders.
If the tube continues to flicker or does not light,
replace the tube. Slide the tube into the holders and
rotate the tube so that the prongs in the holders grip
the tube and hold it in place.
If the ends of the tube light but the center does not,
the starter may require replacement. The starter is
located behind the filter panel on the right hand side.
Install the new starter by pushing the starter in and
turning it clockwise.
Stainless Steel (onsomemodds)
Clean with warm sudsy water, a stainless steel cleaner
such as Kleen King _, or an all-purpose liquid or spray
cleaner. Always scrub in the direction of the grain.
Rinse thoroughly with a sponge or cloth and clean
water. Dry with a soft, clean cloth.
