WARNING

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 listed in the warranty.

2.Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock the 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 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 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.

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

6.Do not use this range hood with any additional solid state speed control device.

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

9.When performing installation, servicing or cleaning the unit, it is recommended to wear safety glasses and gloves.

10.This unit must be grounded. To provide protection against electric shock, connect to properly grounded outlets only.

11.Inspect ducting at least every 12 months or after every range top fire in order to detect any risky conditions.

12.When applicable local regulations comprise more restrictive installation and/or certification requirements, the aformentioned 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:

1.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.

3.Clean ventilating fan frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filters.

size of the surface element.
