Safety 7

CAUTION

•For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

•Do not store items of interest to children above or at the back of the cooktop or vent, as they could climb on the appliance to reach items and be injured.

CAUTION

•Begin by ensuring proper installation and grounding of the hood by a qualified installer. Have the installer show you where the fuse or junction box is located so that you know how and where to turn off power.

•Always be certain that nothing will interfere with the vent intake.

•Use the vent system for its intended purpose only as outlined in this manual.

•Clean the filters and all grease-laden surfaces often to prevent grease fires and maintain performance.

•If the cooktop and hood are near a window, use an appropriate window treatment. Avoid long drapes or other window coverings that could blow over the cooktop and hood, resulting in a fire hazard.

•Always run the blower whenever a cooktop is operating.

•Never operate the hood without the filters in place.

•Do not operate the blower if a flame or flare-up develops. In the event of a flame, immediately turn off the blower. Smother the flame or use an appropriate class dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

•Never leave the appliance unattended when using high heat settings. Boil-overs and greasy spills may smoke and/or ignite.

•Do not leave children alone or unattended in the area where the cooktop and vent are in use. Never allow children to sit or stand on an appliance. Do not let children play with a cooktop or vent.

•Do not repair or replace any part of the vent system unless specifically recommended in literature accompanying this appliance. All service should be referred to a qualified technician.

•Do not use water on grease fires. A violent steam explosion may result. Also, avoid using wet potholders, sponges or clothes, as steam burn may occur.

•To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside. Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.

•Take care when using cleaning agents or detergents.

•Avoid using food products that produce flames under the Range Hood.

•For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

•To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impellers, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. off power unit.

•Your hood motor has a thermal overload which will automatically shut off the motor if it becomes overheated. The motor will restart when it cools down. If the motor continues to shut off and restart, have the hood serviced.
