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

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO
PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A CHIMNEY
FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

1. Immediately close all dampers and/or air entrance
openings to the cooking appliance. This includes doors.

2. Alert your patrons to the possible danger.

3. Inspect your cooking appliance and chimney surroundings
for possible fire. If in doubt, alert your fire department.

4. Do not continue to use your appliance until it and your
chimney have been throroughly inspected. Overheating
can cause metal parts to expand, buckle and crack. If
you are not certain, have a certified chimney sweep disas­semble all parts so they can be inspected and cleaned.

5. Do not use salt or water on the fire in the cooking appli­ance. Salt is corrosive and water will cause a dangerous
steam explosion. You might be able to control the fire by
using ashes, sand or baking soda, since baking soda is an
ingredient used for dry chemical fire extinguishers.

6. After a chimney fire, when it is safe to do so, check inter­nal locations such as an attic and under the roof and keep
watching for two or three hours. There may be delayed
smoldering and subsequent ignition, even if the fire inside
the chimney has been controlled.

1. Use this unit in the manner intended by the manufacturer.
If you have questions, contact the manufacturer at the
address or telephone number listed on the front of the
manual.

2. Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch off at service
panel and lock service panel to prevent power from being
switched on accidentally.

3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by a
qualified person(s) in accordance with applicable codes
and standards.

4. Follow the appliance 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.

5. This unit must be grounded.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A CHIMNEY FIRE:

1. Keep chimney and grease fan clean.

2. Always turn ON fan when using the cooking appliance.

3. Do not leave cooking appliance unattended when in use.

CAUTION

Please read specification label on product for further
information and requirements.
