This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by
providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING
Improper grounding can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not use an extension cord. If
the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install an outlet near the appliance.
Set the electrical power supply within the space covered by the decorative flue.
Position the outlet offset so that the power cord will not interfere with the round duct. Place the outlet at a maximum distance of
33- 7/16” (from where the cord exits from the hood (see illustration on the right). Make sure this does not interfere with a
mounting bracket fastening area or with the decorative flue (where the flue touches the wall).
