Energy Saving Tips
Do not operate the fan 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 filter system and hood surfaces free of
•
grease and grime to improve efficiency.
Turn the fan 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.
•
WARNING
Never operate the range hood without the filter(s) 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 start-
•
ing 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 condition-
ing outlets to reduce air currents around the
hood.
Place your largest pots and pans on the back
•
burners when possible.
In the interest of safety, heat oils and fats slowly.
