INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,

ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

A. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.

B. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. 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 for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

C. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

D. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.

E. If this unit is to be installed over a tub or shower, it must be marked as appropriate for the application.

F. NEVER place a switch where it can be reached from a tub or shower.

Unit consists of the housing, power unit/blower assembly (motor, wheel mounting plate, grille, reflector, lens and duct collar).

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.
