CLEANING

Clean your hood with a mild detergent suitable for painted surfaces.

DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLOTH, STEEL WOOL PADS OR SCOURING POWDERS.

Fan assembly may be vacuumed. Fan assembly is lifetime lubricated, and never needs oiling.

HOW TO AVOID A COMMON RANGE-TOP GREASE FIRE

Your range hood provides a protective barrier between the cooking surface and the cabinets.

Keep fan, filters and grease laden surfaces CLEAN according to instructions.

Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat to keep the cooking area and the hood cooler.

Use high heat settings only when necessary.

Never leave cooking surface unattended. Boil-over causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

Always use adequate-sized utensils.

If preparing flaming foods, such as Cherries Jubliee, always turn hood ON to HIGH to prevent a high heat situation which

can cause damage or fire.

HOW TO EXTINGUISH A COMMON RANGE-TOP GREASE FIRE

Never pick up a flaming pan. If dropped flames can spread quickly.

DO NOT USE WATER! A violent stream explosion may result. Wet dishcloths or towels are also dangerous.

Smother flames with a close fitting lid, cookie sheet or metal tray.

Flaming grease can also be a extinguished with baking soda or multi-purpose dry chemical extinguisher.

Turn off surface units - if you can do so without getting burned.
