To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury when using
your unit, observe the following:
• Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by
qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable
codes and 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 back drafting. Follow the
heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline 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.
• When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not
damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
• Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
• WARNING!: To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal
ductwork.
• CAUTION!: 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 or ceilings, or into attics, crawl
spaces, or garages.

Warnings
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury to persons in the event of a
rangetop grease fire, observe the following: (Based on
“Kitchen Firesafety Tips,” published by NFPA.)
1. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close fitted 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 a violent steam explosion will result.
4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if
• You know it is 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.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, OR
INJURY TO PERSONS, RANGEHOODS MUST BE INSTALLED
WITH THE VENTILATORS THAT ARE SPECIFIED ON THEIR
CARTON INDICATING SUITABILITY WITH THIS MODEL.
OTHER VENTILATORS CANNOT BE SUBSTITUTED.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGETOP GREASE FIRE:
1. Never leave surface units unattended at high setting.
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. (i.e. Crepes suzette,
Cherries jubilee, Peppercorn beef flambé).
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.
