IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC 
SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE 
FOLLOWING: 

■  Use this unit only in the manner intended by the 

manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the 
manufacturer.

■  Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch the power off at 

the service panel disconnecting means to prevent power 
from being switched on accidentally. When the service 
disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a 
prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service 
panel.

■  Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by 

qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes 
& standards, including fire-rated construction.

■  Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and 

exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel 
burning equipment to prevent backdrafting. Follow the 
heating equipment manufacturer's guideline 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 wall or ceiling; do not damage 

electrical wiring and other utilities.

■  Ducted systems must always be vented outdoors.
     CAUTION: For general ventilating use only. Do not use 

to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

     CAUTION: To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust 

air, be sure to duct air outside - do not vent exhaust air into 
spaces within walls ceilings, attics, crawl spaces, or 
garages.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY 
METAL DUCTWORK.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP 
GREASE FIRE:

■  Never leave the surface units unattended at high settings. 

Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may 
ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

■  Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when 

flameing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, 
Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

■  Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be 

allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.

■  Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for 

the size of the surface element.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO 
PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE 
FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

■  SMOTHER FLAMES with a close fitting lid, cookie sheet, or 

other metal tray, then turn off the gas burner or electric 
element. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the 
flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL 
THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

■  NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - you may be burned.
■  DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - 

a violent steam explosion will result.

■  Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

– You know you have a class ABC extinguisher, and you 

already know how to operate it.

– The fire is small and contained in the area where it 

started. 

– The fire department is being called.

– You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

device.
