Important Safety Instructions

General Safety Precautions

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

WARNING

• Do not install or operate this unit if it has been dam­aged, dropped, has damaged electrical wiring or is
not working properly. If the product is damaged when
received, immediately contact the dealer or builder.

• Use this blower only for its intended purpose as out­lined in these instructions. This blower is not intended
for commercial use.

• All planning, installation work and electrical wiring
must be performed in accordance with all governing
codes and ordinances, including fire-rated construc­tion. Contact your local building department for fur­ther information.

• Install or locate this appliance only in accordance
with these installation instructions and the Dacor
hood or downdraft vent installation instructions.
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service
or maintenance can cause serious personal injury or
property damage.

• Before installing or servicing the in-line blower, make
sure that power to the wiring is turned off at the cir­cuit breaker or fuse box. Make sure that the service
panel is locked or tagged to prevent power from
being switched on accidently.

• To reduce the risk of electric shock or fire, the total
combined current draw of the in-line blower and the
hood or downdraft vent must not exceed the maxi­mum rated input current of the hood or downdraft
vent.

WARNING

• The installer must show the customer the location of
the fuse or circuit breaker panel so that the customer
knows where and how to turn the power off.

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

• Clean the filters and all grease-laden surfaces around
the hood or downdraft vent often to prevent grease
fires and maintain performance.

• Use only duct work constructed of materials deemed
acceptable by state, municipal and local codes.

• Tape all duct joints securely to prevent combustion
by-products, smoke or odors from entering the home.
Doing so will also improve system efficiency.

• Do not route electrical wiring near hot surfaces.

• Do not ground the appliance with the neutral (white)

house supply wire. A separate ground wire must be
utilized.

• To prevent a damaged or non-functional system,
complete electrical connections properly. Follow the
wiring diagrams carefully in the hood or in-line blower
installation instructions to ensure a proper installation.
After installation or service, make sure that all blower
wires are tightly connected to their respective termi­nals.
