Choose an appropriate location to install the exterior
hoods:
• There must be a minimum distance of 6’ (1.8 m)
between the hoods to avoid cross-contamination
• There must be a minimum distance of
18” (457 mm) from the ground
Make sure the intake hood is at least 6’ (1.8 m) away from
the following:
• Dryer exhaust, high efficiency furnace vent, central
vacuum vent
• Gas meter exhaust, gas barbecue grill
• Any exhaust from a combustion source
• Garbage bin and any other sources of contamination
Refer to figure below for connecting insulated ducts to
the exterior hoods. An “Anti-gust intake hood” should be
installed in regions where a lot of snow is expected to fall.
All units are equipped with an integrated control, located under the unit, in front of the electrical
compartment. Use the push button (1) to control the unit. The LED (2) will then shows on
which mode the unit is in.
Refer to table beside to see how to operate the unit
using its integrated control.

3. CONTROLS
3.1 INTEGRATED CONTROL
If a problem occurs during the unit operation, its integrated control LED (2) will blink. The color of the blinking light depends on the type
of error detected. Refer to
Section 9 Troubleshooting
on page 17 for further details.
3.1.1 BOOT SEQUENCE
The unit boot sequence is similar to a personal computer boot sequence. Each times the unit is plugged after being unplugged, or
after a power failure, the unit will perform a 30-second booting sequence before starting to operate. During the booting sequence,
the integrated control LED will light GREEN or AMBER for 5 seconds, and then will shut off for 2 seconds. After that, the LED will
light RED for the rest of the booting sequence. During this RED light phase, the unit is checking and resetting the motorized damper
position. Once the motorized damper position completely set, the RED light turns off and the booting sequence is done.
NOTE: No command will be taken until the unit is fully booted.
