GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, ground-
ing reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric cur-
rent. This hood is equipped with a cord that has a grounding wire with a ground-
ing plug, which must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
DO NOT use an extension cord.
WARNING—Improper use of the grounding can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or service agent if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
Power Cord Replacement or Removal
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, or its approved
service agent.
