!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 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 qualified personnel 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 guidelines and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for 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.Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.

7.To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this unit with any additional solid-state speed control device.

8.

To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.

9.This unit must be grounded.

10.When applicable local regulations comprise more restrictive installation and/or certification requirements, the aforementioned requirements prevail on those of this document and the installer agrees to conform to these at his own expenses.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

a)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.

b)Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crêpes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

c)Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan, filters or in exhaust ducts.

d)Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.

B.The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.

C.The fire department has been called.

D.You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

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

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

4.Your power pack 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 power pack serviced.

5.The minimum hood distance above cooktop must not be less than 24”. A maximum of 30” above cooktop is highly recommended for best capture of cooking impurities. For a gas range, the bottom of the hood MUST NOT BE LESS than 30” above cooktop.

6.Two installers are recommended because of the large size and weight of this unit.

7.To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside – Do not exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceiling or into attics, crawl space or garage.
