WARNING
Danger of toxic fumes.
Gas cooking appliances release
carbon monoxide that can be
harmful or fatal if inhaled.
The exhaust gases extracted by
the hood should be vented
outside of the building only.
Do not vent exhaust air into
spaces within walls or ceilings, or
in attics, crawl spaces or garages.
To reduce the risk of fire, only use
metal duct work.
Please read and follow the
"IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS" to reduce the risk of
personal injury. Follow all local building
codes when installing the hood.
Exhaust ducting and connections
–
The ducting should be as short and
straight as possible, and the number
of sharp bends should be minimized.
–
For most efficient air extraction, the
diameter of the duct work should not
be less than 7

flat ducts also reduces the air
extraction efficiency.
–
Noise levels of the hood will increase
if flat ducts or round ducts of less
than 7

used.
– Use smooth or flexible pipes made
from approved non-flammable
materials for exhaust ducting.
– Where the duct work is horizontal, it
must slope away from the hood at
