TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC

SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSON(S) OBSERVE THE

FOLLOWING:

1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer.

If you have 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  lock  service  disconnecting  means  to  prevent
power from being switch on accidentally. When the service
disconnecting  means  cannot  be  locked,  securely  fasten  a
prominent  warning  device,  such  as  a  tag,  to  the  service
panel.

3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by

qualified personnel in accordance with all applicable codes
and standards, including 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  backdrafting.  Follow  the  heating  equipment
manufacturer’s  guidelines  and  safety  standards  such  as
those published by the National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA),  the  American  Society  for  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.

6. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
7. Do not use this unit with any other solid-state speed control

device.

8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only steel ductwork.
9. This unit must be grounded.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE

FIRE:

a) Never leave surface units unattended at high settings.

Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may
ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

b) Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when

cooking flaming foods (i.e. Crêpes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee,
Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

c) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be

allowed to accumulate on fan or filters.

d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for

the size of the surface element.
