INTENDED FOR DOMESTIC COOKING ONLY
,_, _,WARNING
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 panel to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When
the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a promi-
nent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by a qualified person(s) in
accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated con-
struction 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 Engi-
neers (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 separate solid-state speed control device.
8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
9. This unit must be grounded.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
A. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smok-
ing and greasy spitlovers 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.
Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Ftambe).
C. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumu-
late on fan or filter.
D. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the
surface element.

MAINTENANCE, CONT'D
Hood Cleaning
Stainless steel is one of the easiest materials to keep clean. Occasional care will
help preserve its fine appearance,
Cleaning tips:
1. Hot water with soap or detergent is all that is usually needed,
2. Follow all cleaning by rinsing with clear water. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth
to avoid water marks.
3. For discolorations or deposits that persist, use a non-scratching household
cleanser or stainless steel polishing powder with a little water and a soft cloth.
4. For stubborn cases, use a plastic scouring pad or soft bristle brush together
with cleanser and water. Rub lightly in direction of polishing lines or "grain" of
the stainless finish. Avoid using too much pressure which may mar the sur-
face.
5. DO NOT allow deposits to remain for long periods of time.
6. DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may
adhere to the surface causing rust,
7. DO NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds
to remain in contact with stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these
compounds contain chemicals which may be harmful. Rinse with water after
exposure and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
Painted surfaces should be cleaned with warm water and mild detergent only.

INSTALL THE DUCTWORK
(DUCTED HOODS ONLY)
ACAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire, use
only metal ductwork.
1. Decide where the ductwork will run be-
tween the hood and the outside.
2.A straight, short duct runwill allow the hood
to perform most efficiently.
3. Long duct runs, elbows, and transitions will
reduce the performance ofthe hood. Use as
few ofthem as possible. Larger ducting may
be required forbest performance with longer
duct runs.
4. Installarooforwalt cap. Connect round metal
ductwork to capandwork backtowards hood
location. Use duct tape to seat the joints be-
tween ductwork sections.
