When using this appliance always exercise basic safety precautions includingthe following:
z Please read the entire set of instructions before installing or using this appliance.
z Please make this information available to the person installing the appliance – doing so
could reduce your installation costs.
z Always switch the power off prior to installation, servicing or cleaning of the appliance.
z This appliance must be installed and connected to the mains power supply only by a
suitably qualified person according to these installation instructions and in compliance
with any applicable local building and electricity regulations. Failure to install the
appliance correctly could invalidate any warranty or liability claims.
z To comply with electrical safety regulations, the appliance must be plugged into
a socket near the appliance. The socket must be accessible, or have an accessible
isolating switch, to enable the end user to isolate the appliance from the power for the
purpose of internal cleaning or maintenance.
z A power outlet should be within 750mm of the rangehood and can either be on the
wall, behind the chimney or in the ceiling.
z If the supply cord of this equipment is damaged, it must only be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
