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.

m Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by

qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.

m 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), the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

m When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling; do not damage

electrical wiring and other utilities.

m Ducted fans must always be vented outdoors.

CAUTION: For general ventilating use only. Do not use

to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

CAUTION: 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, attics or into crawl spaces,

or garages.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY

METAL DUCTWORK.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP

GREASE FIRE:

m 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

flambeing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee,

Peppercorn Beef Flamb6).

[] 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.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO

PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING: a

[] 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:

- You know you have a class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.

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

- The fire department is being called.

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

• A wiring diagram is located on the downdraft vent base above the power control board cover.

IMPORTANT: Make sure there is proper clearance within the wall or floor before making exhaust vent cutouts.

• Use heavy (rigid) metal vent.

• Venting system must terminate to the outside.

• Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area.

• Do not use 4" (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps.

• Do not install 2 elbows together.

• Do not use plastic or metal foil vent.

• The length of vent system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.

• Use no more than three 90 ° elbows

• Make sure there is a minimum of 24" (61 cm) of straight vent between the elbows if more than one elbow is used.

• Use clamps to seal all joints in the vent system.

• Use caulking tape to seal the exterior wall or floor opening around cap.

• Do not cut joist or stud. Ifvent cutout falls over a joist or stud, a supporting frame must be constructed.

Flexible metal vent is not recommended. If it is used, calculate each foot of flexible vent as 2 ft (0.6 m) of rigid metal vent.

Flexible elbows count twice as much as standard elbows. Recommended vent system length:

For either interior-mounted or exterior-mounted blower installations, the vent system length should not exceed the

maximum lengths listed in the Maximum Length of Vent System chart. See "Calculating Vent System Length" in the "Venting Methods - Interior Mounted Vent Motor Only" section.
