WARNING

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

1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer.

If you have questions, contact the manufacturer at the address
or telephone number listed in the warranty.

2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service

panel and lock 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.

3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by

qualified personnel in accordance with all applicable codes
and standards, including fire-rated construction codes and
standards.

4. 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 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. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage

electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

6. Ducted fans must always be vented outdoors.

7. Do not use this unit with any solid-state speed control device.

8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.

9. This unit must be grounded.

10. When applicable, local regulations comprise more

restrictive installation and/or certification requirements,
the aforementioned requirements prevail on those of this
document and the installer agrees to conform to these at his
own expenses.

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 power pack ON when cooking at high heat or

when flambeing food (i.e.: Crêpes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee,
Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

c) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed

to accumulate on fan, filters or in exhaust ducts.

d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the

size of the surface element.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE
EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE
THE FOLLOWING*:

1. 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.

2. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN — You may be burned.

3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels —

This could cause a violent steam explosion.

4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
A. You own a Class ABC extinguisher and you know how to

operate it.

B. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
C. The fire department has been called.
D. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
* Based on “Kitchen Fire Safety Tips” published by NFPA.

CAUTION

1. For indoor use only.

2. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust

hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

3. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced

impellers, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. off power
unit.

4. Your hood motor has a thermal overload which will automatically

shut off the motor if it overheats. The motor will restart when it
cools down. If the motor continues to shut off and restart, have
the hood serviced.

5. The minimum hood distance above cooktop must not be

less than 24” (30” over a gas range). A maximum of 30”
above cooktop is recommended for best capture of cooking
impurities.

6. Two installers are recommended because of the large size and

weight of this unit.

7. To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to

duct air outside — Do not exhaust air into spaces within walls
or ceiling or into attics, crawl space or garage.

8. This product is equipped with a thermostat which may start

blower automatically. To reduce the risk of injury and to prevent
power from being switched on accidentally, switch power off at
service panel and lock or tag service panel.

9. Because of the high exhausting capacity of this hood, you

should make sure enough air is entering the house. Open a
window close to or in the kitchen.

10. To reduce the risk of fire and electrical shock, the Venmar

Connaisseur CC32I Series models should only be installed
with their own built-in blowers.

11. Please read specification label on product for further

information and requirements.
