Total equivalent feet should be less than 100′.
Why do changes in air direction restrict flow in a system?
Causing air to change direction causes turbulence and restricts flow in a system.
How do flexible metal ducts affect multipliers?
If using flexible metal duct – increase all multipliers by 50% (12 becomes 18 – etc.).
How do you use the worksheet to estimate total equivalent feet?
This easy to use worksheet is for 600 CFM or less. Under “QTY USED” enter how of each section you will be using. In the first two rows – enter how many feet of each type of straight duct you will be using (i.e. for 20 FT enter 20, for 30FT enter 30). Enter the number of each type of turn you are using and the type of end cap. Multiply across each row the “MULTIPLIER” x “QTY USED” to get the equivalent feet for those components. Add up all the values in the “EQUIVALENT FEET” column.

BLACK = HOT LEG
WHITE = NEUTRAL
GREEN/YELLOW = GROUND
Polarity must be observed.
Unit must be properly grounded.
Use a double throw disconnect switch.
3. Replace the box cover
Replace the Anti-grease filters.
All wiring must be in compliance with national electrical code, ANSI/NFPA 70-1999 and all local codes and regulations.
Why is regular cleaning and maintenance important for the hood?
Regular cleaning and maintenance is the key to long life and peak performance of any equipment.
How often should anti-grease filters be cleaned and why?
The anti-grease filter is used to trap any grease particles suspended in the air, therefore is subject to saturation (the time it takes for the filter to become saturated depends on the way in which the appliance is used). The grease filters should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm detergent solution. Grease filters are a dishwasher safe. To prevent potential fire hazards, the anti-grease filters should be washed a minimum of every 2 months (it is possible to use the dishwasher for this task).
What happens to the color of the filters after washing?
After a few washes, the colour of the filters may change. This does not mean they have to be replaced.
What is the risk if filter replacement and washing instructions are not followed?
If the replacement and washing instructions are not followed, the anti-grease filters may present a fire hazard.
What products should not be used when cleaning stainless steel?
Do not use corrosive detergents, abrasive detergents or oven cleaners.
Do not use any product containing chlorine bleach or any product containing chloride.
Do not use steel wool or abrasive scrubbing pads which will scratch and damage surface.
How should stainless steel be cleaned?
Clean periodically with warm soapy water and clean cotton cloth or micro fiber cloth. Always rub in the direction of the stainless steel grain. To remove heavier grease build up use a liquid degreaser detergent. After cleaning use a non-abrasive stainless steel polish/cleaners, to polish and buff out the stainless luster and grain. Always rub lightly, with a clean cotton cloth or a micro fiber cloth and buff in the direction of the stainless steel grain.
How should painted surfaces be cleaned?
Any painted surfaces should be cleaned with warm water and detergent only.
What is recirculation mode and how does it work?
This refers to hoods which are not ducted outside but rely instead on carbon filter elements to help purify the air before it is exhausted back into the room.
How often should carbon element filters be replaced in recirculation mode?
The carbon element filters gradually lose efficiency and cannot be cleaned or regenerated. These must be replaced at least 4 times a year, more frequently if needed based on the amount of use and style of cooking.
How are the carbon filters changed?
Changing the filters is easy. To Reduce the Risk of Fire and Shock use only conversion Kit Model XORFSQR(ACK00083) Filters. The XORFSQR filters are sold in pairs. To replace the filters, unlatch and remove the Anti-Grease filters. This will expose the blower. Remove the old filter as shown in the figure and install the new filter simply align and push into place to lock.
How are the LED lights replaced?
To replace the bulbs, rotate the lamp anticlockwise as shown in Figure. Replace the bulbs with new ones of the same type.
How is the XO range hood controlled?
Your XO range hood is controlled by these electronic push buttons which illuminate when activated.
What are the functions of the control buttons?
BUTTON ☀: LIGHT
BUTTON 0: OFF
BUTTON 1: SPEED I
BUTTON 2: SPEED II
BUTTON 3: SPEED III
BUTTON T: AUTOMATIC STOP TIMER – 5 minutes (*)
How is the Power Boost speed function activated and how does it work?
The appliance has the Power Boost speed function: press BUTTON 3 for two seconds and it will be activated for 6 minutes after which it will return to the previously set speed. When the function is active the LED flashes. To interrupt it before the 6 minutes have expired press BUTTON 3 again.
What does the “automatic stop timer” function do?
The “automatic stop timer” delays stopping of the hood, which will continue functioning for 5 minutes at the operating speed set at the time this function is activated.
Why do some local codes limit exhaust airflow and what is the CCC system?
Some local codes limit the maximum exhaust airflow of range hoods to 400 CFM before a Make Up Air System is required. The XOR24SC, XOR30SC, XOR36SC, XOR48SC models are supplied with 600 CFM capacity. The CCC system allows you to limit the hood from 600 CFM to 395 CFM.
How do you set up the hood for 395 CFM operation?
To set up for 395 CFM Operation – follow the procedure below:
1. After the hood has been powered up initially, disconnect the power supply by shutting off the circuit breaker.
2. VERY IMPORTANT, after turning power back on to the unit, you must press and hold both the ☀ and “0” buttons simultaneously within 5 seconds of re-powering the unit.
NOTE: If you do not press the buttons within the first 5 seconds after turning power back on to the hood – the CCC function will not engage and you must repeat from Step 1.
3. The control blinks 3 times
4. The hood is now configured at 395 CFM – the POWER BOOST function is also disabled.
5. Affix the sticker supplied to indicate the unit has been reconfigured to a maximum air flow of 395 CFM.
