WARNING
—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 flambéing food (i.e. Crepes
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.

OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY TO
PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
A. Installation work and electrical wiring must be
done by qualified person(s) in accordance with
all applicable codes and standards, including
fire-related construction.
B. Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion
and exhausting of gases through the flue
(chimney) of fuel burning equipment to
prevent back drafting. 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.
C. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do
not damage electrical wiring and other hidden
utilities.
D. Ducted fans must always be vented to the
outdoors.
