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  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 device, such as a tag, to 

the service panel.

3.  Installation  work  and  electrical  wiring  must  be  done  by  a  qualified 

person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, includ-

ing 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 backdraft-

ing. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety 

standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection As-

sociation (NFPA), and the American Society of 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.  To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this range hood 

with an additional speed control device.

7.  Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
8.  To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
9.  Use with approved cord-connection kit only.
10. This unit must be grounded.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
1.  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.

2.  Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when cooking flaming 

foods.

3.  Clean  ventilating  fans  frequently.  Grease  should  not  be  allowed  to 

accumulate on fan or filter.

4.  Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of 

the surface element.

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 - violent steam 

explosion will result.

4.  Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

A.  You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you already know 

how to operate it.

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

1.  For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or 

explosive materials and vapors.

2.  To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impellers, 

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

3.  For  best  capture  of  cooking  impurities,  your  range  hood  should  be 

mounted so that the top of the hood is 24-30” above the cooking surface.

4.  Please read specification label on product for further information and 

requirements.
