General Safety Precautions
To reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and serious injury/death when
using the hood, follow basic safety precautions, including:
WARNING
• Use the hood only as directed in this manual.
• Before service/cleaning, turn power off at the service panel, and
lock out the panel so power cannot be switched on. If lockout is
impossible, fasten a prominent warning notice to the panel.
• To avoid explosion/fire, do not store or use flammable/explosive
vapors, liquids, material (ex: gasoline, aerosols) in/on/near the hood.
• Install/repair/replace hood parts only as directed in this manual. A
qualified technician should perform all other service.
• DO NOT vent harmful/explosive vapors through the hood.
• Do not tamper with the hood controls.
• Do not let cigarettes, napkins, etc. be sucked into the hood.
• If the cooking unit is near a window, do not hang window coverings
that could blow onto the appliances.
• Always run the hood when using the cooktop.
• Do not leave children/pets alone near an active cooking unit/hood or
let them sit/stand on/play with these appliances; do not store items
of interest to children near these appliances.
• Minimum distance between cooking surface and hood bottom is 26”
(66.0 cm); this distance may increase depending on the cooking unit;
see the cooking unit Installation Instructions for specific dimensions.
• To reduce risk of grease fire:
– always monitor pots at high settings (boilovers cause smoke, and
greasy spill-overs may ignite);
– heat oils on low/medium settings.
– clean fans/filters regularly so grease does not collect on them.
– always use a burner nearest the cookware size.
• IN CASE OF GREASE FIRE:
– cover flames with a close-fitting lid or metal sheet pan/tray, then
turn off the burner. If flames do not die immediately, EVACUATE
THE BUILDING, AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
– NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN.
– DO NOT DOWSE FLAMES WITH WATER (incl. wet dish towels).
– use only a Class ABC fire extinguisher and ONLY if:
◆ the fire is small and contained in its area of origin
◆ the fire department is being called
◆ you can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of
