CAUTION
!
• Maintain a minimum clearance of 18” (457.2mm) between the hood’s exhaust outlet and the ceiling, or
other overhead obstruction.
• Exercise care when lifting or moving the unit. See Section 1-4.4, Hood Weights.
• Exercise care when removing the unit from the shipping skid.
CAUTION
!
• DO NOT operate the unit unless you fully understand its components and their intended function.
• DO NOT bend the collection fins or break the ionizer wires of the Electrostatic Air Cleaner (EAC).
Doing so will prevent it from working properly and cause a shutdown of power to the appliance being
operated under the hood.

NOTE:
• Giles’ responsibility for the damage to the unit ends once the freight shipment is loaded onto the carri-
er’s truck. Upon delivery, if the palletized unit showed any signs of damage, the entire load, including
the supplied accessories, should have been inspected immediately and any damage to the equipment
should have been promptly reported to the freight company.
• As an aid for electricians and installers, an electrical wiring diagram is provided with the unit. Refer to
the wiring diagram during installation or while servicing.
• Comply with all appropriate state and/or local heath regulations regarding cleaning and sanitation of
foodservice equipment.
• Giles recommends the use of mild, bio-degradable, non-toxic degreasers, such as Clear Magic or
Simple Green, for cleaning parts of the hood where excessive grease film accumulation is present.
• Always ensure the unit is installed and electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the
absence of local codes, in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984.
NOTE:
• The approximate sound level of the hood while operating is 65 dB.
NOTE:
• For some installations, it may be necessary to consult a HVAC specialist to con-
firm that proper room air exchange is occurring and that the on-site A/C system is
capable of handling the anticipated heat load.
• Exhaust ventilation is recommended for areas in which recirculating hoods are operated. Giles recom-
mends 50 CFM per linear foot of hood space. This amount could vary based on local codes and
site-specific situations.
