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

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.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

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.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A
RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:*
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.

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.
