IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, electrical shock, injury to persons,
or damage when using the range hood, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
• This appliance is intended for
normal family household use
only.
• Before servicing or cleaning
the unit, switch power o
at service panel and lock
the service disconnecting
means to prevent power

standards, including re-rated
construction.
• Do not operate any fan with
a damaged cord or plug.
Discard fan or return to an
authorized service facility for
examination and/or repair.
• Sucient air is needed
for proper combustion
and exhausting of gases
through the ue (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
