RANGEHOODSAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manuaI and on your appliance. AIways read and obey aII safety

messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potentiaI hazards that can kiII or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriousJy injured if you don't immediately

instructions.

AII safety messages wiII tell you what the potentiaI hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can
happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNmNG: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC

SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE

FOLLOWING:

Use this unit only in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the
manufacturer.

Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch the power off at

the service panel 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.
Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by

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

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.

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

electrical wiring and other utilities.
Ducted systems must always be vented outdoors.

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

CAVTION: 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.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY

METAL DUCTWORK.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP

GREASE FIRE:

Never leave the 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
flameing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee,

Peppercorn Beef Flambe).

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: _

SMOTHER FLAMES with a close fitting lid, cookie sheet, or
other metal tray, then turn off the gas burner or electric
element 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

aBased on "Kitchen Fire Safety Tips" published by NFPA.

WAR NmNG: To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock,
do not use this fan with any solid:state speed control

device.

Grounded electrical outlet is required. See "Electrical

Requirements" section.
it is recommended that the hood be fastened into solid wood. if
fastening into drywall or other material, wall anchors or screws

with toggle nuts (purchased separately) must be used.
This hood is factory set for non-venting (recirculating)

installations. For vented installations see "installation instructions"
section.

if this hood will be used as a non-vented installation you will also
need to purchase a 30" (76.2 cm) Filter Kit, No. 4396291 or

36" (91.4 cm) Filter Kit, No. 4396292 from your dealer.

Calculating Vent System Length

To calculate the length of the system you need, add the
equivalent feet (meters) for each vent piece used in the system.

Use 31/4'' x 10" (8.3 x 25.4 cm) or 7" (17.8 cm) round vent with a
maximum length of 65 feet (19.8 m) for vent system. For best

performance, use no more than three 90° elbows. To calculate the
length of system you need, add the equivalent feet for each vent

piece used in the system. See the examples below.

1. If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in
range from cabinet opening to provide easier access to upper

cabinet or rear wall. Slide cardboard or hardboard under
range before moving range across floor to prevent damaging

floor covering. Otherwise put a thick, protective covering over
countertop, cooktop or range to protect from damage

or dirt.
