The blower should be turned on for about 5 minutes
before cooking in order to establish air currents
upward through the hood. Thus when heat, smoke,
moisture, grease and cooking odors are produced,
they will be carried outside instead of drifting into
other rooms. Use the low speeds for normal use
and the higher speeds for strong odors or fumes.

Drafts across the range or cooktop will reduce the
effectiveness of the hood. Such drafts should be
prevented when possible.

The best job of ventilation in the kitchen is done
where the only air currents are those created by the
blower itself.
