Always turn hood ON when cooking at high
heat or when flambéing food (i.e. Crepes
Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef
Flambé).
C.
Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should
not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
D.
Use proper pan size. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the surface element.

PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
A.
Installation work and electrical wiring must be
done by qualified person(s) in accordance with
all applicable codes and standards, including
fire-related construction.
