WARNING! TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

a)Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have any questions, please contact the manufacturer at the address or telephone number listed in the warranty.

b)Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock service panel and/or the service disconnection 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.

CAUTION -- For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boil overs 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 flambéing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé’).

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—YOU MAY BE BURNED.

c)DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dish clothes or towels. A violent steam explosion will result.

d)Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

1.You know 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.

Recommendations:

1.Consult a licensed ventilation contractor or qualified technician for proper installation of exhaust ducting. Locate the cooking area for minimum cross drafts-away from doors and windows, when possible.

2.Ducts must be of adequate size and duct runs should be as short as possible. Where turns are necessary, keep turning radius as large and as smooth as possible.

3.The ducting must be air tight. Use a minimum of 2 sheet metal screws at every duct joint. Then, seal the duct joints with high quality duct tape.

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

5.This unit must be grounded.
