PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL INFORMATION (continued)

OPERATIONAL NOTES:

REPLACE PREFILTER and REPLACE FILTER PACK indicator lights provide a timely warning that a system shut-down is imminent.

The actual time between the indicator light coming on and the loss of cooking appliance power will depend upon the cooking conditions.

Anytime a dirty PRE-FILTER is replaced, the system airflow will increase. If the condition of the FILTER PACK is marginal, the REPLACE FILTER PACK light could then come on. If this happens, a fresh FILTER PACK must be installed within a reasonably short time.

Loss of airflow through the old filter pack will soon cause a system shut-down when the airflow falls below minimum vapor capture levels.

KEEP SPARE FILTER PACKS ON HAND.

IMPORTANT: If you decide to “get the most” out of the old filter pack, and continue to use it until a system shut-down happens, it is advisable to have a fresh filter pack readily at hand, and have someone available who is capable of replacing it. Otherwise, you may experience an extended down time, with consequent associated loss of business.

The manufacturer assumes no liability for loss of business due to a system shutdown caused by a dirty pre-filter and/or filter pack (i.e. red SERVICE REQUIRED light is on), when the user fails to have the proper replacement pre-filter and/or filter pack on hand.

The Ventless Cooking System™ hood is designed as part of a WELLS cooking appliance only. No other use of this product is authorized by

the manufacturer or its agents. Wells Mfg. assumes no liability for the use of this equipment with products by any other manufacturer’s, or for use of this equipment with any Wells Manufacturing product other than in factory certified applications.

DANGER

FIRE HAZARD

THE FIRE SUPPRESSION

SYSTEM MUST BE CHARGED AND CERTIFIED BY AN AUTHORIZED

ANSUL® DISTRIBUTOR. NEVER ATTEMPT TO

MODIFY OR BYPASS THE FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM. AN UNCONTROLLED FIRE CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY, DEATH AND/OR PROPERTY LOSS.

IMPORTANT: The FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM must be SET-UP and CHARGED by an authorized Ansul® distributor before the ventilator blower will operate.

NOTE: If the fire suppression system is discharged, a buzzer will sound continuously and the cooking appliance will remain inoperable until the fire suppression system is serviced. Recharging and

resetting must be performed by an authorized Ansul® distributor ONLY.

Charging of the Ansul Fire Suppression system must be in accordance with Ansul®

Design, Installation, Recharge and Maintenance Manual.

(Ansul® #418087-05)

FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM INSTALLATION

1. Any REMOTE MANUAL PULL STATION must be installed by an authorized ANSUL® distributor in accordance with the AUTHORITY HAVING JURISDICTION.

NOTE: If a REMOTE MANUAL PULL STATION is installed, moving the unit for servicing will cause the Ansul® system to discharge. In this case, the unit must only be installed with four fixed legs (i.e. remove rear casters and replace with legs). Additional legs may be ordered through an Authorized Wells Service Agency. See page 25.

2. The FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM is comprised of a pressurized cartridge & container of liquid fire suppressant, with associated plumbing and controls. It utilizes factory installed FUSIBLE LINKS for automatic actuation, and a factory installed MANUAL PULL STATION for manual actuation. Two NOZZLES are used to disperse the liquid fire suppression media.

3. When the fire suppression system activates, the fire suppression media is discharged, both the cooking appliance and the ventilator are de-energized, and a buzzer will sound continuously. The fire suppression media will form an emulsion designed to both smother and cool the fire.

Call your Authorized Ansul® Distributor immediately for

service.

NOTE: See page 22 for the Material Safety Data Sheet for the fire

suppression agent.

4. The MANUAL PULL STATION and any similar REMOTE MANUAL PULL STATION will activate the fire suppression system when the ring on the pull station is pulled horizontally.
