INSTRUCTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES.  
LISEZ TOUTES LES INSTRUCTIONS AVANT D’UTILISER.  
PRÉCAUTIONS EN MATIÈRE DE SÉCURITÉ  
A. Ne laissez jamais sans surveillance les unités de  
cuisson de surface à une température élevée. Le  
bouillonnement occasionne des débordements  
fumants et graisseux qui peuvent prendre feu.  
Chauffez à feu doux les substances huileuses,  
avec un réglage bas ou moyen.  
B. ALLUMEZ toujours la hotte en cas de cuisson à  
feu élevé ou lorsque vous faites flamber des aliments  
(par exemple, crêpes Suzette, cerises jubilées, bœuf  
au poivre flambé).  
C. Nettoyez les mécanismes de ventilation fréquemment.  
Il ne faut pas permettre une accumulation de graisse  
sur le ventilateur ou sur le filtre.  
D. Utilisez une casserole de bonne taille. Utilisez toujours  
un ustensile de cuisine qui convienne au diamètre  
de l’élément de cuisson.

covered under the Warranty.  
Maximum duct length:  
FOR YOUR SAFETY:  
For satisfactory air movement, the total duct length  
of a 314x 10rectangular, 6or 7diameter round  
duct should not exceed 65 equivalent feet. See the  
WORKSHEET–CALCULATE TOTAL EQUIVALENT  
DUCTWORK LENGTH section.  
WARNING –  
Before beginning the  
installation, switch power off at service panel and  
lock the service 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.  
NOTE: It is important that ducting be installed using  
the most direct route and with as few elbows as possible.  
This ensures clear venting of exhaust and helps prevent  
blockages. Also, make sure dampers swing freely and  
nothing is blocking the ducts.  
Elbows, transitions, wall and roofcaps, etc.,  
present additional resistance to airflow and are equivalent  
to a section of straight duct longer than their actual  
physical size. When calculating the total duct length, add  
the equivalent lengths of all transitions and adaptors plus  
the length of all straight duct sections. The charts on the  
following pages show you how to calculate total equivalent  
ductwork length using the approximate feet of equivalent  
length of some typical ducts.  
OPTIONAL POWER CORD KIT JXHC1  
An optional Power Cord Connection Kit, model JXHC1,  
is available at extra cost from your GE supplier for  
installation using a standard 3-prong, grounded wall  
outlet. Follow the Installation Instructions packed with  
the kit to connect the power cord to the range hood.  
* IMPORTANT: If a rectangular-to-round  
transition adaptor is used, the bottom  
corners of the damper will have to be  
cut to fit, using the tin snips, in order  
to allow free movement of the damper.  
Equivalent lengths of duct pieces  
are based on actual tests and reflect  
requirements for good venting  
performance with any hood.

If the hood seems to be operating at high speed when  
the control is not set on high, or if ventilation seems  
inadequate, check the following:  
Knockouts not removed from hood.  
Damper blade not opening.  
CONNECT WIRING  
Connect house black to hood black wire, house white  
to hood white wire and house ground under green  
ground screw. Securely tighten the strain relief clamp  
onto the house wiring.  
Reduced airflow because the duct is too small or  
the duct length is too long.  
The duct is blocked.  
Undersized or restrictive wall or roof cap.  
If the hood seems to make excessive noise:  
Green ground screw  
Fan may be hitting the filter. Turn off the fan and  
remove the filter. Bend the filter down slightly in the  
center (into a dome shape) to allow fan clearance.  
Reinstall and adjust as needed.  
The fan does not work but the lights do:  
Switch power off at the service panel and lock the  
service 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.
