What you need to know about safety instructions

Warning and Important Instructions appearing in this guide are not meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. Common sense, caution and care must be exercised when installing, maintaining or operating an appliance.

ALWAYS contact your dealer, distributor, service agent or manufacturer about problems or conditions you do not understand.

Recognize Safety Symbols, Words, Labels

WARNING — Hazards or unsafe practices which COULD result in severe personal injury or death.

CAUTION — Hazards or unsafe practices which COULD result in minor personal injury.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by a qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction codes and standards.

Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue

(chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline 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.

When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.

Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer.

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, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING (continued):

Blower must not be installed in a ceiling thermally insulated to a value greater than R40.

Blower must not be installed in furnace ductwork.

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

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers`cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when cooking flaming foods.

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

Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.

Important Safety Instructions

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING*:

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.

NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - You may be burned.

DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - a violent steam explosion will result.

Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

A.You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.

B.The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.

C.The fire department is being called.

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

*Based on “Kitchen Firesafety Tips” published by NFPA.

For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside. Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces or garages.

This blower assembly is approved for use with the following Electrolux Telescoping Downdraft Systems: EI30DD10KSA, EI36DD10KSA,

FH30DD50MSA and FH36DD50MSA only.

. Use of this blower assembly with any other product or in any other configuration is hazardous and voids the product warranty.

NOTE

Consult a licensed ventilation contractor or qualified technician for proper installation of exhaust ducting.

Locate the cooking area for minimum cross drafts - away from doors and windows, when possible.

Ducts must be of adequate size and duct runs should be as short and straight as possible. Where turns are necessary, keep turning radius as large and smooth as possible.

The ducting must be air tight. Use a minimum of 2 sheet metal screws at every duct joint. Then, seal the duct joints with a high quality duct tape.

In duct runs less than 10 equivalent straight feet, the remote blower may interfere with the cooktop burner performance due to the high volume of air moved. An adjustable damper (not included) should be installed in the ducting system. The damper can be adjusted so that proper ventilation and cooktop burner performance is achieved.

Installation of duct work should be carefully planned if it is to go under a concrete slab floor.

The duct trench should be boxed to prevent collapse from the wet cement. Be sure to allow room to run the electrical wiring and conduit.
