SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

• Read all instructions before using this appliance.

• To reduce the risk of ﬁre, electric shock, or injury to persons, observe the following:

a) Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualiﬁed person(s)

in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including ﬁre-rated construction.

b) Sufﬁcient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through

the ﬂue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guidelines and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

c) When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and

other hidden utilities.

d) Ducted fans must always be vented outdoors.

e) Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have

questions, contact the manufacturer.

f) Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock

the service disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

• To reduce the risk of ﬁre, use only metal ductwork.

• Grounding Instructions

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet this is properly installed and grounded.

• Improper grounding can result in a risk of electric shock.

• Consult a qualiﬁed electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

• Do not use this unit with any separate solid-state speed control device.

Safety

WARNING

• Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualiﬁed electrician install an outlet near the appliance.

• This appliance should be serviced only by qualiﬁed service personnel. Contact the nearest Electrolux authorized servicer at (877) 435-3287, or at www.electroluxusa.com for examination, repair or adjustment.

smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

b) Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when cooking ﬂaming

foods.

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.

The blower speed control changes the running speed of the blower (1-2-3).

The pilot lamp lights up whenever the blower is on.

Auto-Start Heat Sensing System

Your hood is equipped with an Auto-Start Heat Sensing System thermostat. This thermostat is a device that will turn on or speed up the blower if it senses excessive heat above the cooking surface.

1 If blower is OFF - it turns blower ON to HIGH speed. 2 If blower is ON at a lower speed setting - it turns blower

up to HIGH speed.

When the temperature level drops to normal, the blower will return to its original setting.

WARNING

The Auto-Start Heat Sensing System thermostat can start the blower even if the hood is turned OFF. When this occurs, it is impossible to turn the blower OFF with its switch. If you must stop the blower, do it from the main electrical panel.
