A. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read all Instructions before installing and operating this appliance.

Installation

Do not install if the outside/appearance of this appliance is already damaged.

1. The installation in this manual is intended for qualified installers, service technicians or someone with similar
qualified background NEVER attempt to install this appliance yourself.

2. Injury could result from installing the unit due to lack of appropriate electrical and technical background.

3. All electrical wiring must be properly installed, insulated and grounded. Old duct work should be cleaned or
replaced if necessary to avoid the possibility of a grease fire. Check all joints on duct work to insure proper
connection and all joints should be properly taped.

4. Personal Injury Hazard – Because of the weight and size of the rang hood, three or more people are needed to
move and safely install the range hood. Failure to properly lift range hood could result in damage to the product
or person.

5. SERVERE INJURY – Range hood may have sharp edges. Please wear protective gloves if it is necessary to
remove any parts for installing, cleaning or servicing.

Operations

1. Read all instructions in this manual before operating the appliance. Save these instructions for future reference.

2. Always leave safety grills and filters in place. Without these components, operating blowers could catch
on the hair, and loose clothing.

3. NEVER dispose cigarette ashes, ignitable substances, or any foreign objects into blowers.

4. NEVER leave cooking unattended. When frying, oil in the pan can easily overheat and catch fire. The risk of self
combustion is higher when the oil has been used several times.

5. NEVER cook on “open” flames under the range hood. Check deep-fryers during use: extremely hot oil may be
flammable.

Cleaning

DO NOT OPERATE BLOWERS WHEN FILTERS ARE REMOVED.

1. The saturation of greasy residue in the blower and filters may cause increased inflammability. Keep this
appliance clean and free of grease and residue build-up at all times to prevent possible fires.

2. Filters must be cleaned periodically and free from accumulation of cooking residue (see cleaning instructions
inside). Old and worn filters must be replaced immediately.

3. NEVER

disassemble parts to clean without proper instructions. Call our service center for removal instructions.

The manufacturer and distributors decline all responsibility in the event of failure to observe the instructions
given here for installation, maintenance and suitable use of the product.
The manufacturer and distributors further decline all responsibility for injury due to negligence and the
warranty of the unit automatically expires due to improper maintenance.

Safety Workman Gloves

Safety Note

Please wear “Safety Workman Gloves” for installation,
Cleaning, light bulb changing, and dismantling to
reduce the risk of any bodily injuries.

B. BEFORE YOU ST ART….

It is very important for your safety and safety of others. Always read and obey all safety messages. All safety messages will inform you on
what the potential hazards are, how to reduce the chance of injury, and what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

These alerts are here to help you avoid potential hazards that can kill or hurt you. All
safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and the word “WARNING”.

WAR NIN G
