IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: TO REDUCE
THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
CAUTION: FOR GENERAL
VENTILATING USE ONLY. DO
NOT USE TO EXHAUST HAZARDOUS OR EXPLOSIVE MATERIALS OR VAPORS.
A. Use this unit only in the manner
intended by the manufacturer. If you
have questions, contact the manufacturer.
B. 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

FOR RESIDENTIAL USE ONLY
device, such as a tag, to the service
panel.
C. Installation work and electrical
wiring must be done by qualified persons in accordance with all applicable
codes & standards, including fire-rated
construction.
D. 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 manufacturers 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.
E. When cutting or drilling into wall
or ceiling, do not damage electrical
wiring and other hidden utilities.
F. 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,
ceilings, attics, crawl spaces or garages.
G. WARNING – TO REDUCE
THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY METAL
DUCT WORK.
H. Install this hood in accordance
with all requirements specified by the
manufacturer of your cooktop/range.
I. This appliance has a polarized plug
(one blade wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this
plug is intended to fit in a polarized
outlet one way. If the plug does not fit
fully in the outlets, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to defeat
this safety feature.
WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE
TOP GREASE FIRE:
A. 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.
B. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when
cooking flaming foods.
C. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be
allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
D. 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.
B. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN
C. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or
towels – a violent steam explosion will result.
D. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
1) You have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already
know how to operate it.
2) The fire is small and contained in the area where it
started.
3) The fire department is being called.
4) You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

CONSIDERATIONS BEFORE INSTALLING HOOD
1. For efficient air flow exhaust, use a
straight run or as few elbows as
possible.
2. Do not use flex ducting.
3. COLD WEATHER installations
should have an additional backdraft
damper installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the ductwork.
PAGE 2
The damper should be on the cold
air side of the thermal break. The
break should be as close as possible to the location where the
ducting enters the heated portion
of the house.
