WARNING WARNING
- 2 -
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:
1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the
manufacturer at the address or telephone number
listed in the warranty.
2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off
at service panel and lock service 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.
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.
5. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not
damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
6. Ducted fans must always be vented to the
outdoors.
7. Do not use this unit with any solid-state speed
control device other than WCPI optional wall
mounted control.
8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
9. This unit must be grounded.
10. When applicable local regulations comprise more
restrictive installation and/or certification
requirements, the aforementioned requirements
prevail on those of this document and the installer
agrees to conform to 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 flambeing food (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,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING*:
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:
A. You own a Class ABC extinguisher and you
know how to operate it.
B. The fire is small and contained in the area
where it started.
C. The fire department has been called.
D. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
* 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 impellers, keep drywall spray, construction
dust, etc. off power unit.
4. Your insert motor has a thermal overload which will
automatically shut off the motor if it becomes
overheated. The motor will restart when it cools down.
If the motor continues to shut off and restart, have the
insert serviced.
5. The minimum hood distance above cooktop must not be
less than 24”. 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 unit.
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. This product is equipped with a thermostat which may
start blower automatically. To reduce the risk of injury
and to prevent power from being switched on
accidentally, switch power off at service panel and
lock or tag service panel.
9. Because of the high exhausting capacity of this unit,
you should make sure enough air is entering the
house to replace exhausted air by opening a window
close to or in the kitchen.
10. To reduce the risk of fire and electrical shock, the Best
models PIK33 and PIK45 must be installed only with
Best interior blower models P5 or P8; Best exterior

alternative, flexible metal ductwork may be used.
If installing in-line blower, refer to instructions packed with in-line blower and follow steps 1 up to 8, 13, 14, 16, 17, 19
and up of this manual.
Install proper-sized ductwork, elbows and roof or wall cap for the type of blower you are installing. Use round ductwork, with a
short section (about 4’ expanded) of flexible metal duct (optional) for attachment to the transition. Use screws to attach flexible
metal duct to the rigid duct. Use 2” duct tape to seal duct joints.
The minimum hood distance above cooktop must not be less than 24”. A maximum of 30” above cooktop is highly
recommended for best capture of cooking impurities.
Distances over 30” are at the installer and users discretion.

AVERTISSEMENT AVERTISSEMENT
AFIN DE RÉDUIRE LES RISQUES D’INCENDIE,
D’ÉLECTROCUTION OU DE BLESSURES CORPORELLES,
SUIVEZ LES INSTRUCTIONS SUIVANTES :
1. N’utilisez cet appareil que de la façon prévue par le
manufacturier. Si vous avez des questions, contactez
le manufacturier à l’adresse et au numéro de
téléphone indiqués sur la garantie.
2. Avant de réparer ou de nettoyer l’appareil, couper
l’alimentation électrique en verrouillant le panneau de
service afin d’éviter sa remise en marche accidentelle.
Si le panneau de service ne peut être verrouillé,
y fixer un avertissement en évidence.
3. Les travaux d’installation et de raccordement
électrique doivent être effectués par une personne
qualifiée, conformément aux codes et aux standards
de construction, incluant ceux concernant les incendies.
4. Une quantité d’air adéquate est requise afin d’assurer
une bonne combustion et l’évacuation des gaz par la
cheminée dans le cas des équipements alimentés au
gaz afin de prévenir les retours de cheminée.
Conformez-vous aux instructions et aux standards
de sécurité des manufacturiers d’équipement de
chauffage, tel qu’ils sont publiés par la
National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA) et l’ American Society
for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE) ainsi que les responsables des
codes locaux.
5. Lorsque vous coupez ou perforez un mur ou un
plafond, prenez garde de ne pas endommager
les fils électriques ou autre installation qui pourraient
y être dissimulés.
6. L’évacuation des ventilateurs avec conduits doit
toujours se faire à l’extérieur.
7. Ne pas utiliser cet appareil avec une commande
de vitesse à semi-conducteur autre que la commande
murale optionnelle WCPI.
8. Afin de réduire les risques d’incendie, n’utilisez que
des conduits de métal.
9. Cet appareil doit être mis à la terre.
10. Lorsqu’une réglementation est en vigueur localement
et comporte des exigences d’installation et/ou de
certification plus restrictives, lesdites exigences
prévalent sur celles de ce document et l’installateur
entend s’y conformer à ses frais.
AFIN DE RÉDUIRE LES RISQUES DE FEU
DE CUISINIÈRE :
a) Ne jamais laisser les appareils de cuisson sans
surveillance lorsqu’ils sont réglés à feu vif.
Les débordements engendrent de la fumée et des
déversements graisseux pouvant s’enflammer.
Chauffez l’huile lentement, à feu doux ou moyen.
b) Toujours mettre la hotte en marche lorsque vous
cuisinez à feu vif ou que vous cuisinez des mets
flambés (par ex. : crêpes Suzette, cerises jubilé, steak
au poivre flambé).
c) Nettoyez régulièrement la (les) roue(s) du ventilateur.
Ne laissez pas la graisse s’accumuler sur le ventilateur
ou les filtres.
d) Utilisez le bon format de casserole. Servez-vous
toujours de casseroles et d’ustensiles appropriés à
la dimension de la surface chauffante.
AFIN D’ÉVITER TOUT RISQUE DE BLESSURES LORS
D’UN FEU DE CUISINIÈRE, SUIVEZ CES INSTRUCTIONS* :
1. Étouffez les flammes avec un couvercle hermétique,
une tôle à biscuits ou un plateau métallique et
ensuite, éteindre le brûleur. PRENEZ SOIN
D’ÉVITER DE VOUS BRÛLER. SI LES FLAMMES
NE S’ÉTEIGNENT PAS IMMÉDIATEMENT, ÉVACUEZ
LES LIEUX ET APPELEZ LES POMPIERS.
2. NE PRENEZ JAMAIS UNE CASSEROLE EN
FLAMMES DANS VOS MAINS – Vous pourriez subir
des brûlures.
3. N’UTILISEZ PAS D’EAU, incluant un linge à vaisselle
ou une serviette mouillée, cela pourrait occasionner
une violente explosion de vapeur.
4. N’utilisez un extincteur QUE DANS LE CAS OÙ :
A. Vous savez qu’il s’agit d’un extincteur de classe
ABC et que vous en connaissez le fonctionnement.
B. L’incendie est petit et limité à l’endroit où il a débuté.
C. Les pompiers ont été avisés.
D. Vous pouvez combattre l’incendie en ayant accès
à une sortie de secours.
*Tirées du
Kitchen Fire Safety Tips publié par la NFPA.
ATTENTION
1. Pour une utilisation à l’intérieur seulement.
2. Pour usage domestique seulement. Ne pas utiliser pour
évacuer des vapeurs ou des matières dangereuses
ou explosives.
3. Afin d’éviter tout dommage au moteur et de débalancer
ou de rendre bruyante la roue du moteur, garder votre
appareil à l’abri des poussières de gypse et de
construction/rénovation, etc.
4. Le moteur de votre module de hotte encastrable
possède une protection thermique qui éteindra
automatiquement le moteur s’il devient surchauffé. Le
moteur repartira automatiquement une fois refroidi. Si le
moteur continue à arrêter et à repartir, faites-le vérifier.
5. La distance minimale entre le bas de votre hotte et la
surface de cuisson ne doit pas être inférieure à 24 po.
Un maximum de 30 po au-dessus de la surface de
cuisson est fortement recommandé pour une
meilleure évacuation des odeurs de cuisson.
6. Deux installateurs sont recommandés lors de l’installation
vu la grande dimension et le poids de cet appareil.
7. Afin de réduire les risques d’incendie, assurez-vous
d’évacuer l’air à l’extérieur – Ne pas évacuer l’air dans
des espaces restreints comme l’intérieur des murs ou
plafond ou dans le grenier, faux plafond ou garage.
8. Cet appareil est équipé d’un thermostat pouvant faire
démarrer le ventilateur automatiquement. Afin de
réduire le risque de blessure, couper le courant à partir
du panneau électrique et verrouiller ou apposer un
avertissement sur le panneau afin de prévenir que la
hotte soit mise en marche automatiquement.
9. À cause de la grande capacité d’évacuation de cet
appareil, il est recommandé d’ouvrir une fenêtre dans
ou près de la cuisine afin de remplacer l’air évacué.
10. Afin de réduire les risques d’incendie et d’électrocution,
les modèles PIK33 et PIK45 doivent être installés uniquement
avec l’un des ventilateurs intérieurs Best suivants : P5 ou
P8; l’un des ventilateurs extérieurs Best suivants : EB6,
EB9, EB12 ou EB15; l’un des ventilateurs en ligne Best
suivants : ILB3, ILB6, ILB9 ou ILB11 (vendus
séparément). Aucun autre ventilateur ne doit être utilisé.
11. Ce module de hotte encastrable ne doit être
utilisé seulement qu’avec un ensemble de cordon
d’alimentation approuvé.
12. Veuillez consulter l’autocollant apposé à l’intérieur du
produit pour plus d’information ou autres exigences.
