BEFORE YOU START
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A BBQ 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 flambéing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee,
Peppercorn Beef Flambe’).
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.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A BBQ TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:
a) 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, shut off the gas, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE
DEPARTMENT.
b) NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN—YOU MAY BE BURNED.
c) DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishclothes or towels - a violent steam explosion will result.
d) Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
1. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher and you already know how to operate it.
2. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
3. The fire department is being called.
4. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
e) Follow the barbeque grill manufacturer’s instruction when using gas grills, cookers, or any propane appliances.
f) BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE
DEPARTMENT.
Recommendations:
1. Consult a licensed ventilation contractor or qualified technician for proper installation of exhaust ducting.
Locate the cooking area for minimum cross drafts.
2. Ducts must be of adequate size and duct runs should be as short as possible. Where turns are necessary, keep
turning radius as large and as smooth as possible.
3. The ducting must be air tight. Use a minimum of 2 sheet metal screws at every duct joint. Then, seal the duct
joints with high quality duct tape.
4. Do not use this unit with any solid-state speed control device.
5. This unit must be grounded.
