WiringGROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current.
This appliance is equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded.
This range hood must be properly grounded.
The unit should be installed by a qualified
electrician in accordance with all applicable
national and local electrical codes.
Improper grounding can result in a risk of
electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded.
Do not use an extension cord.
If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician install an outlet near the appliance.
Set the electrical power supply within the space covered
by the decorative flues.
Position the power socket at a maximum distance of
33-7/16” (85 cm) from where the lead exits from the
hood (see illustration alongside).
Make sure this does not interfere with the bracket
fastening area or with the decorative flue (where the flue
touches the wall).
Fit the plug into the power socket.
