Important Safety Instructions

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death when using your range hood, follow basic safety precautions, including the following:

WARNING

1.Do not install or operate this hood if it has been damaged, dropped, has damaged electrical conduit or wires or is not working properly. If the product is damaged when received, immediately contact the dealer or builder.

2.Use this range hood only for its intended purpose as outlined in the use and care manual. Do not use this range hood to vent hazardous or explosive materials or vapors. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer.

3.The customer should not install, repair or replace any part of the range hood unless specifically recommended in the literature accompanying it. A qualified service technician should perform all other service. Contact the nearest Dacor authorized service representative at (800) 793-0093, or at www.Dacor.com for examination, repair or adjustment.

4.Keep all packaging materials away from children. Plastic bags can cause suffocation.

6.Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with these installation instructions and the requirements specified by the manufacturer of the cooktop or range. Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause serious personal injury or property damage.

7.Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug with this appliance.

8.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 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.

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

10.The installer must show the customer the location of the fuse or junction box so that the customer knows where and how to turn the power off.

11.Before installing or servicing the range hood, switch power off at the fuse or junction box and lock the electrical panel door to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the electrical panel cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

12.Read the use and care manual completely before using the appliance.

13.Do not tamper with the controls.

14.Never allow the filter(s) to become blocked or clogged. Do not allow foreign objects, such as cigarettes or napkins, to be sucked into the hood.

15.Clean the filter(s) and all grease-laden surfaces often to prevent grease fires and maintain performance.

16.If the cooktop and range 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.

17.Always run the blower(s) whenever the cooktop is operating.

18.Never leave the range or cooktop unattended when a burner (or element) is in use. Boil-overs and greasy spills may smoke and/or ignite.

19.Do not leave children alone or unattended in the area where the cooktop and range hood are in use. Never allow children to sit or stand on an appliance. Do not let children play with a range, cooktop or range hood. Do not store items of interest to children above or around the cooktop, range or range hood.

20.The minimum vertical distance between the cooktop surface and the exterior part of the hood must be no less than 30” (762 mm). The vertical distance may be longer for the range or cooktop being used. Consult the range or cooktop installation instructions for the minimum and maximum vertical distance from the appliance being used.

21.A minimum of two people are required to safely install this appliance.
