IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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 any 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 prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s)
in accordance with all applicable codes and standards - including
fire-rated construction 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 Engineers (ASHRAE), and local
code authorities.
5. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical
wiring and other hidden utilities.
6. This unit must be grounded.
7. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
8. To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
9. When applicable local regulations comprise more restrictive installation
and/or certification requirements, the aforementioned requirements
prevail on those of this document and the installer agrees to conform
to these at his own expenses.
10. When performing installation, servicing or cleaning this unit, it is
recommended to wear safety glasses and gloves.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
1. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause
smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low
or medium setting.
2. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing
food (i.e.: Crêpes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
3. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to
accumulate on fan or filter.
4. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of
the surface element.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF
A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING*:
1. 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.
2. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - you may be burned.
3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - a violent
steam explosion will result.
4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
A. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know
how to operate it.
B. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
C. The fire department is being called.
D. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
