icon will illuminate when the feature menu is active. The following
features can be adjusted sequentially:

hours for the clock. A small indicator will illuminate in the left
corner of the LED screen to designate “pm”. After the hours are
set, press the
button to advance the menu to the minute
selection. The minutes will begin blinking in the LED screen. Use
the
and buttons to set the minutes. Press the button
again to advance the menu to select “display” settings.
DISPLAY (default from factory - display ON)
The LED screen will display the display feature -d-. Use the
or
button to toggle the LED screen on (d on) or off (doFF). When
the display off (doFF) feature is selected, the LED display clock
illumination is disabled. Press the

the menu to select the “Sleep” setting.
SLEEP MODE (default from factory - OFF)
The LED screen will display the “Sleep” feature -S-. Use the

When the Sleep on (S on) feature is selected, the LED screen

AMBIENT LIGHT SENSOR (default from factory - Level 1 ON)
There are two level settings for the ambient light sensor. When
either of the two settings is active, the light sensor will detect a low
level of light in your kitchen, and will automatically turn the task
lights on the hood to the night time setting. The other light settings
are still functional. If selected when the ambient light sensor is
active, they will temporarily overide the ambient light sensor until
they are turned off. The level 1(Aon1) ambient light sensor setting
will require your kitchen to be more dark than the level 2 (Aon2)
setting before activating the night time setting. The LED screen
will display the ambient light sensor function -A-. Use the
or
button to select the light sensor setting Aon1, Aon2, or AoFF. The
Off (AoFF) setting deactivates the automatic ambient light sensor
feature so the night time light operation is manual.
Note that the feature menu can be exited any time by not
pressing any button(s) for 10 seconds or by scrolling through the
entire feature menu.
