WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY 

TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1.  Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If

you  have  questions,  contact  the  manufacturer  at  the  address  or

telephone number listed in the warranty.

2.  Before servicing or cleaning unit, 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.

3.  Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by a qualified

person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards,

including fire-rated construction codes and standards.

4.  Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of

gases  through  the  flue  (chimney)  of  fuel  burning  equipment  to

prevent backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s

guideline  and  safety  standards  such  as  those  published  by  the

National  Fire  Protection Association  (NFPA),  and  the American

Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers

(ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

5.  When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical

wiring and other hidden utilities.

6.  To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this range

hood with an additional speed control device.

7.  Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
8.  To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
9.  Use with approved cord-connection kit only.
10.This unit must be grounded.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

1.  Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers

cause  smoking  and  greasy  spillovers  that  may  ignite.  Heat  oils

slowly on low or medium settings.

2.  Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing

food  (i.e.:  Crêpes  Suzette,  Cherries  Jubilee,  Peppercorn  Beef

Flambé).

3.  Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to

accumulate on fan or filter.

4.  Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size

of the surface element.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT 

OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:*

1.  SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal

tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS.

If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL

THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

2.  NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN — You may be burned.
3.  DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - violent

steam explosion will result.

4.  Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

A.  You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you already

know how to operate it.

B.  The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
C.  The fire department is being called.
D.  You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
