manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the
manufacturer at the address or telephone number listed

such as a tag, to the service panel.
3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by
qualified personnel in accordance with all applicable
codes and standards, including fire-rated construction
codes and standards.
4. 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 guidelines and
safety standards such as those published by the
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the
American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air
Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code
authorities.

these at his own expenses.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE 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 cooking flambeing foods (i.e.: crêpes Suzette,
cherries jubilee, peppercorn beef flambé).
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 RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE,

1. 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, EVACUATE AND CALL
THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
2. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may
be burned.
3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or
towels – This could cause a violent steam explosion.
4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

*Based on “Kitchen Fire Safety Tips” published by NFPA.
CAUTION
1. For indoor use only.
2. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust
hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
3. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or
unbalanced impeller, keep drywall spray, construction
dust, etc. off power unit.
4. Your hood motor has a thermal overload which will
automatically shut off the motor if it becomes
overheated. The motor will restart when it will cool
down. If the motor continues to shut off and restart,
have the hood serviced.
5. The minimum hood distance above cooktop must
not be less than 20” for an electric range, and 24” for
a gas range. A maximum of 30” above cooktop is
highly recommended for best capture of cooking
impurities.
6. Two installers are recommended because of the large
size and weight of this hood.
7. To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust
air, be sure to duct air outside – Do not exhaust air into
spaces within walls or ceiling or into attics, crawl space
or garage.
8. Because of the high exhausting capacity of this hood,
you should make sure enough air is entering the house
to replace exhausted air by opening a window close to
or in the kitchen.
9. Use with approved cord-connection kit only.
10. Please read specification label on product for further
information and requirements.
11. All demonstrator range hoods (model numbers ending
