place for handy reference.

This canopy rangehood is a domestic appliance which has
been manufactured and tested to comply with Australian
and New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 60335.2.31.

Meanings of symbols used in this manual are shown below:

READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY TO AVOID

AN ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FIRE.

Young children should be supervised to ensure they
do not play with the canopy rangehood.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning the use of the appliance
by a person responsible for their safety.

Ensure the canopy rangehood is switched off before
carrying out maintenance, to avoid any possibility of
electric shock.

Never carry out flambé cooking under the
canopy rangehood.

This canopy rangehood is not recommended
for barbeques.

This canopy rangehood cannot be installed for
external use.

Grease filters must be removed at least every four
weeks for cleaning to reduce the risk of fire.

The exhaust from the canopy rangehood must not be
discharged into any heating flue, which may carry
combustion products from other sources. (Fig. 1)

Exhaust air must not be discharged into a wall cavity,
unless the cavity is designed for the purpose.

There must be adequate ventilation of the room when
the canopy rangehood is used at the same time as
appliances burning gas or other fuels.

Always cover lit gas burners with pots or pans when
canopy rangehood is in use.

Always switch off gas burners before you remove pots
or pans.

Do not leave lit gas burners exposed due to the risk
of fire. (Fig. 2)
