Important Safety Instructions

General Safety Precautions

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death when using your range hood, follow basic
safety precautions, including the following:

• If you receive a damaged product, immediately contact your dealer or builder. Do not install or use a damaged
hood.

• Make sure that the range hood has been properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer according to the
accompanying installation instructions. Have the installer show you the location of the fuse or junction box so that
you know where and how to turn the power off.

• Do not install, repair or replace any part of the range hood unless specifically recommended in the literature
accompanying it. A qualified service technician should perform all other service.

• To avoid the risk of electric shock, before servicing the range hood, switch power off at the fuse or junction box
and lock the electrical panel door to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the electrical panel
cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

• To avoid the risk of electric shock, before cleaning the range hood, turn off the main power switch.

• Use the range hood only for its intended purpose as outlined in this manual. DO NOT use this range hood to vent
hazardous or explosive materials or vapors. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer.

• Do not tamper with the controls.

• Never allow the filters to become blocked or clogged. Do not allow foreign objects, such as cigarettes or napkins, to
be sucked into the hood.

• If the cooktop and range hood are near a window, use an appropriate window treatment. Avoid long drapes or other
window coverings that could blow over the cooktop and hood, resulting in a fire hazard.

• Always run the fan(s) whenever the cooktop is operating.

• Do not leave children alone or unattended in the area where the cooktop and range hood are in use. Never allow
children to sit or stand on an appliance. Do not let children play with a range, cooktop or range hood. Do not store
items of interest to children above or around the cooktop, range or range hood.

• The minimum vertical distance between the cooktop surface and the exterior part of the hood must be no less than
25" (635 mm) for EH and MH series models and 30" (762 mm) for EHR series models. The vertical distance may be
longer for the range or cooktop being used. Consult the range or cooktop installation instructions for the minimum
vertical distance from the appliance being used.

• To reduce the risk of a range top grease fire:
a. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boil-overs cause smoking and greasy spill-overs that

may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

b. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flamb6ing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee,

Peppercorn Beef Flambe').

c. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
d. 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:
a. 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.

b. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - you may be burned.
c. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dish clothes or towels - a violent steam explosion may result.

d. Use a fire extinguisher ONLY if:

,/_ You have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.
_ The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.

The fire department is being called.

0 You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
