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 or telephone number 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 a qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction 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 of 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. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this range hood with an additional speed control device.

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

8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.

9. This unit must be grounded.

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.

2. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when cooking flaming foods.

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

4. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:*

1. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

2. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN — You may be burned.

3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - violent steam explosion will result.

4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if: A. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you al-

ready know how to operate it. B. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started. C. The fire department is being called. D. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit. * Based on “Kitchen Fire Safety Tips” published by NFPA.

CAUTION

1. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

2. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impellers, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. off power unit.

3. For best capture of cooking impurities, your range hood should be mounted so that the top of the hood is 24-30” above the cooking surface.

4. Please read specification label on product for further information and requirements.

Homeowner: Operating and Cleaning information on page 5.

NOTE If hood is to be installed Non-Ducted:

• Purchase a set of (2) non-ducted filters from your

local distributor or retailer and attach them to the aluminum mesh filters.

1 Determine whether hood will discharge vertically (3¼” x 10”

or 7” Round), or horizontally (3¼” x 10” only). For vertical or horizontal discharge, run ductwork between the hood location and a roof cap or wall cap. For best results, use a minimum number of transitons and elbows.

2 Use diagrams, below, for proper placement of ductwork and

electrical cutout in cabinet or wall. For a non-ducted installation, DO NOT cut a duct access hole.
