IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

~, WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire only use metal ductwork.

~Provided a larger distance is not given by the manufacturer of the cooktop, follow the minimum safety distances between a cooktop and the bottom of the hood:

–22" (550 mm) above electric cooktops,

–30" (762 mm) above gas cooktops,

–26" (650 mm) above an open electric grill or an open electric boiler/fryer.

If local building codes require a greater safety distance, follow their requirement.

If there is more than one appliance beneath the hood and they have different minimum safety distances always select the greater distance.

~Be careful not to damage hidden electrical wiring or plumbing when cutting or drilling into the wall or ceiling.

~Do not use an extension cord to connect the appliance to electricity. Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance, (e.g. danger of overheating).

~Do not install this hood over cooktops burning solid fuel.

~Any fittings, sealant, or materials used to install the ductwork must be made of approved non-flammable materials.

~Never connect an exhaust hood to an active chimney, dryer vent, vent flue, or room ventilating ductwork. Seek professional advice before connecting an exhaust hood vent to an existing, inactive chimney or vent flue.

~Ducted fans must always be vented outdoors.

~Make sure that the airflow in the room is sufficient for combustion and exhausting of all non-electric heating appliances (water heaters, gas cooktops, gas ovens, etc.), otherwise back drafts may occur. Follow the heating manufacturer’s guidelines and safety standards or those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) or the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE).

If in doubt, consult an experienced professional.
