Important Safety Instructions
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury, or death when using your range hood, follow basic safety precautions, including these:
WARNING
• Use the hood only as outlined in this manual. Do NOT use the hood to vent hazardous/explosive materials or vapors. If you have questions,
contact Dacor (contact info on Pg. 1).
• If you receive a damaged product, immediately contact your dealer/builder. Do not install/use a damaged hood.
• Verify that the hood was properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer according to procedures in this guide. Have the installer show
you the fuse or junction box so you can turn the power ON/OFF as needed.
• Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with these installation instructions and the requirements specified by the manufacturer of the
cooktop or range. Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, or maintenance can cause serious personal injury or property damage.
• Do not install/repair/replace any part of the range hood unless specifically recommended by the procedures in this guide. A qualified service
technician should perform all other service. Contact the nearest Dacor authorized service representative at (800) 793-0093, or at www.dacor.
com for examination, repair or adjustment.
• Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug with this appliance.
• To avoid risk of electric shock:
- Before service is performed, switch power off at the fuse/junction box, and lock the electrical-panel door so power cannot be switched on
accidentally. If the electrical panel cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device (e.g., tag) to the panel.
- Before cleaning the hood, turn off the main power switch (Pg. 3).
• Read the Use and Care Manual completely before using the appliance. Clean the appliance only as instructed in the Use and Care Manual.
Use only the cleaners specified.
• Do not tamper with the controls.
• Never let the filters become blocked/clogged, or foreign objects (e.g., cigarettes, napkins) be sucked into the hood.
• To avoid a fire hazard:
- If the appliance is by a window, do not use window coverings that could blow over the cooking surface and hood.
- Use only metal ducting.
• Always run the hood fans when using your range/cooktop.
• Never let children:
- alone in the vicinity of an operating range/cooktop
- sit/stand on/play with your range/cooktop/hood; or store items of interest to children above/around these appliances.
- play with packaging materials; plastic bags can cause suffocation.
• The minimum vertical distance between the cooking surface and the bottom-most part of the hood must be at least 30” (76.2 cm). Consult the
instructions in this manual for the minimum vertical distance in your specific case.
• Do not attempt to use this appliance during a continuous power outage.
• To reduce risk of a grease fire:
- never leave the range/cooktop unattended at high settings; boil-overs cause smoking and greasy spill-overs that may ignite; heat oils
slowly on low/medium settings
- always turn the hood ON if cooking at high heat or when flambéing food (e.g., Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé)
- clean ventilating fans frequently; do not let grease accumulate on the filter or other hood components
- always use cookware appropriate to the size of the surface element or grate.
• TO REDUCE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY FROM A GREASE FIRE:
- CAREFULLY SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. If the flames do not die
immediately, EVACUATE, THEN CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
- NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN.
- DO NOT try to extinguish flames with water or wet dish cloths/towels; a violent steam explosion may result.
• (FOR GREASE FIRES) USE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER ONLY IF:
- you have a Class ABC extinguisher and know how to operate it
- 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.
