The installer must show the customer the location of the fuse or junction box so that the customer knows where
and how to turn the power off.
Before installing or servicing the range hood, switch power off at the fuse or junction box and lock the electrical

other window coverings that could blow over the cooktop and hood, resulting in a fire hazard.
Always run the blower whenever the cooktop is operating.
