GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug
must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING – Improper grounding can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood,
or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not use an extension
cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install an outlet near
the appliance."
Use only with rangehood cord-connection kits that have been investigated and found
acceptable for use with this model rangehood."
WARNING! TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE-TOP GREASE FIRE:
a. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boil-overs cause smoking
and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.
b. Always turn the hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambéing food.
c. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan
or filters.
d. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface
element.
WARNING! TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT
OF A RANGE-TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a. 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.
b. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – you may be burned.
c. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels, to douse the fire –
this could result in a violent explosion of hot steam.
d. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
1. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate
it.
2. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
3. The fire department is being called.
4. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

IMPORTANT NOTE!
Pay attention when operating the hood simultaneously with devices that
work by burning the ambient air with fuel (such as gas heaters). The
burning may be affected because the hood discharges air in the room to
the outside.
This advice does not apply to hoods not having an outside exhaust.
Using your range hood
For best performance, you should switch on the range hood 15 minutes before starting
to cook and leave it to run for approximately 15 minutes after the end of cooking.
