Important Safety Instructions
• If you received a damaged product, immediately
contact your dealer or builder. Do not install or use
a damaged product.
• Ensure that the unit is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified technician. Have the
installer show you where the fuse box or circuit
breaker panel is located so that you know how and
where to turn off power.
• Always be certain that nothing will interfere with the
vent intake.
• Use the vent system for its intended purpose only
as outlined in this manual.
• Clean the filters and all grease-laden surfaces often
to prevent grease fires and maintain performance.
• If the cooktop and vent hood are near a window,
use an appropriate window treatment. Avoid long
drapes or other window coverings that could blow
over the cooktop and vent hood, resulting in a fire
hazard.
• Always run the blower whenever a cooktop is
operating.
• Never operate the IVS without the filters in place.
• Do not operate the blower if a flame or flare-up
develops. In the event of a flame, immediately
turn off the blower. Smother the flame or use an
appropriate class dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
warning
• Never leave the appliance unattended when using
high heat settings. Boil-overs and greasy spills may
smoke and/or ignite.
• Do not leave children alone or unattended in the
area where the cooktop and hood are in use. Never
allow children to sit or stand on an appliance. Do
not let children play with a cooktop or vent hood.
• CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children
above or at the back of the cooktop or vent, as they
could climb on the appliance to reach items and be
injured.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the IVS
unless specifically recommended in literature
accompanying it. All service should be referred to a
qualified technician.
• Do not use water on grease fires. A violent steam
explosion may result. Also, avoid using wet pot
holders, sponges or clothes, as steam burn may
occur.
