General Safety Precautions
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, serious injury or death when using your range hood, follow basic safety
precautions, including the following:
warning
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 circuit breaker panel or fuse 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 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.
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.
Clean the filter(s) and all grease-laden surfaces •
often to prevent grease fires and maintain
performance.
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 blower(s) whenever the range or •
cooktop is operating.
Never leave the range or cooktop unattended •
when a burner (or element) is in use. Boil-overs
and greasy spills may smoke and/or ignite.
warning
Do not leave children alone or unattended in the •
area where the range/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 the distance specified in
the installation instructions. The vertical distance
may be more for the range or cooktop being
used. Consult the range or cooktop installation
instructions for the minimum and maximum
vertical distance from the appliance being used.

where it started.
