VALLONA RANGE HOOD INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR
PERSONAL INJURY, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING:
Use the range hood only in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have questions, please contact Signa-
ture Hardware Customer Relations at 866-855-2284.
Before servicing or cleaning the unit, power off the unit and
switch off the unit’s circuit on the electrical panel.
Installation and electrical wiring must be done by a qualified
and licensed professional in accordance with all applicable
codes, standards, and fire-rated constructions.
Do not use the unit if any fans or electrical wiring are
damaged. Contact Customer Relations or a qualified
professional if any such issues arise.
To prevent backdraft, sufficient air is needed for proper
combustion. Gas from the fuel burning equipment needs to
exhaust through the flue (chimney). 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.
When cutting or drilling into walls or the ceiling, be aware of
electrical wires, plumbing, and other utilities behind the wall.
Ducted fans must always be vented outdoors.
CAUTION:
For general ventilation use only. Do not use to
exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of fire and to properly
exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside - DO NOT vent
exhaust air into attics, crawl spaces, garages, or within walls
or ceilings.
