This range hood is equipped with a power supply cord having
a 3 prong grounding plug.
■
To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be
plugged into a mating, 3 prong, grounding-type outlet,
grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances. If a
mating outlet is not available, it is the responsibility of the
customer to have the properly grounded outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.

leads.
2. Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of
copper wire using special connectors and/or tools
designed and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.
Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended
procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with
local codes and industry accepted wiring practices.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
■
For a grounded, cord-connected range hood:
This range hood must be grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
This range hood is equipped with a cord having a grounding
wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING:
Improper grounding can result in a risk of
electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to
whether the range hood is properly grounded.
Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too
short, have a qualified electrician install an outlet near the
range hood.
