Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials or vapors. WARNING: To reduce the risk of a range top grease fire: A. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oil slowly on low or medium settings. B. Always turn venthood "ON" when cooking at high heat or when flambeing foods (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe'). C. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter. D. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface unit. Make-Up air may be necessary to prevent air flowing down chimney, or through unsealed door, window, or fireplace opening. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons, observe the following guidelines. A. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer. B. Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch power off at service panel and lock service panel disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel. C. Installation and electrical wiring must be performed by qualified personnel in accordance with all applicable codes & standards, including fire-rated construction. D. To prevent backdrafting, sufficient air is needed to maintain proper combustion and safe exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment. Follow the heating equipment manufacturers guideline and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities. E. Use caution when cutting or drilling into walls or ceilings as not to damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities. 3 SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air to outside. Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceiling, nor into attics, crawl spaces, or garages. NOTE: Unit MUST be vented to the outside of the building. IMPORTANT: Refer to ducting information supplied in this manual. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock or injury to persons, all vent hoods must be installed with ventilators that have been approved for use with the hood. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal duct work. Install this hood in accordance with all requirements specified. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this hood with any external solid state speed control device. WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury to persons in the event of a rangetop grease fire, observe the following: Turn burner off first. Smother flames with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray. Be careful to prevent burns. If the flames do not go out immediately evacuate and call the fire department. Never pick up a flaming pan - You may be burned. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - a violent steam explosion will result. Use an extinguisher ONLY if: 1) You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it. 2) The fire is small and contained in the area where it started. 3) The fire department is being called. 4) You can fight the fire with your back to an exit. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons, the Island Hood (IVS40/52) must be installed with the chimney structure (IVCK) supplied in the separate box. Custom parts cannot be substituted. 4 PARTS PARTS INCLUDED WITH YOUR HOOD Hood canopy assembly with light bulbs installed. Metal transition with back draft dampers Use & Care/Installation Instructions Filters (quantity depending on model and size) Screws Integral blowers 4 side baffle trims (IVS52 only) Baffle filter panel PARTS NOT INCLUDED WITH YOUR HOOD Duct tape 1/2" conduit Wire nuts Hood chimney structure and duct covers. Those items are included with accessory kit model IVCK, which must be ordered separately. 5 BEFORE INSTALLING HOOD 1. For the most efficient air flow exhaust, use a straight run or as few elbows as possible. CAUTION: Vent unit to outside of building only. 2. Two people are necessary for installation. 3. The hood is fitted with screws suitable for most surfaces. Consult a qualified installer. Check if they perfectly fit with your ceiling. 4. Do not use flex ducting. 5. COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional backdraft damper installed to minimize back flow of cold air and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the ductwork. The damper should be on the cold air side (outside wall) of the thermal break. The break should be as close as possible to where the ducting enters the heated portion of the house. 6. Hood installation height above cooktop/range is the user's preference. Lower installation heights will improve the efficiency of capturing cooking odors, grease, and smoke. These hoods have been approved for installation heights 30" and above the cooktop/ranges. Taller people may find a 30" installation height is inconvenient. DCS recommends an installation height between 30" and 36" . 7. For installation over DCS range and cooktop models RGS-364GL or CS-364GL, the IVS52 model venthood is recommended. 8. Make up air: Local building codes may require the use of Make-Up Air Systems when using Ducted Ventilation Systems greater than specified CFM of air movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area. 6 BEFORE INSTALLING HOOD TYPICAL INSTALLATION A typical hood installation is shown below in Figure 1. When installed with the IVCK chimney accessory kit, the hood can be installed at a height of 30" to 36" in kitchens with ceiling heights ranging from 8-1/2 to 10 feet. Installatons outside this range will require custom framing. Consult a qulified installer for a custom framing solution. DUCTING Provide a 10" Round Duct. Ducting run cannot exceed 40 feet, including allowance for elbows/transitions. ELECTRICAL Install a 1/2" conduit from the service panel long enough to reach the hood once it is installed. Power supply must be rated for 120V 60Hz, 15 amps (minimum). INSTALLATION HEIGHT CALCULATIONS See Figure 1. a) Select a hood installation height C that is comfortable for the user. (30"to 36" recommended, 30" minimum). b) Calculate chimney cover height E using fomrula below. Save this calculation for use later in the installation. A = Kitchen Ceiling Height B= C= Counter Height (36" standard) Installation Height of Hood. E D= Canopy Height = 13" E= Chimney cover height = A ­ B ­ C ­ D A C D NOTE: Chimney cover height can be adjusted from 24-1/2" to 36" to meet your desired hood installation height. B FIG.1 7 BEFORE INSTALLING HOOD CEILING PREPARATION Installing supports above ceiling drywall. NOTE: Take into consideration the hood depth; some models are much deeper than the cooktop. NOTE: The following steps pertain to hood installation using chimney structure/duct cover kit model IVCK. Other installations may require custom framing, etc. Consult a qualified installer. 1. Mark center lines of cooktop or range on ceiling above. Use centerlines marked on ceiling to position the mounting template. Location of front arrow on the template must point towards front of cooking surface. Mark mounting holes indicated on the template. 2. Remove and save template. Cut and remove ceiling drywall. Install suitable length 2" x 4" lumber between joists to provide chimney mounting points as shown in Fig. 2. Use template for dimensions and required clearance. Make sure to affix the added lumber firmly and level. Consult a professional if you have difficulties or your installation is unique. Consult template and Fig. 2. IMPORTANT: The ceiling structure (joists and lumbers) must be capable of supporting the weight of the hood (approximately 110 lbs for 40" range hood and 143 lbs for 52" range hood) and any inadvertent user contact loads. 3. DUCT INSTALLATION For IVS-52: Install 10" exhaust duct and extend length E minus 4-5/8" (E ­ 4-5/8") from ceiling. See Fig. 1. Do not use duct smaller than specified. 4. Install 1/2" electrical conduit in location marked on template and extend length E minus 3-1/8" (E ­ 3-1/8") from ceiling (use formula in Fig . 1). 5. Install drywall around duct and conduit; then refinish ceiling. 6. Tape template in place using centerlines marked in Step 1. Mark locations of mounting points. Remove template. FIG.2 8 INSTALLATION HOOD INSTALLATION 1. Adjust chimney mounting structure to E + 3/8" dimension as determined in installation height calculation on page 7. Use 2 screws per attachment leg, see Fig. 3. 2. To install Chimney Structure to ceiling, use a 10mm or adjustable wrench or flat head screwdriver. a. Drill pilot holes into ceiling at fixing points as determined in Step 6 under Ceiling Preparation (Pg. 8). b. Screw the 4 lag screws provided (see Fig. 4, do not tighten completely). c.
