2.3 Important notes
WARNING
Improper installation of gas appliances and ventilation
hoods can create a risk for carbon monoxide which can be
harmful. To reduce the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning,
ensure the gas appliance is properly installed according to
the manufacturer's instructions, as well as ensuring the
hood is vented to the outside for proper exhausting of
gases or fumes.
¡ Gas cooking appliances release carbon monoxide that
can be harmful or fatal if inhaled. To reduce the risk of
fire and to properly exhaust air, the exhaust gases
extracted by the hood should be vented outside of the
building only.
¡ Consult local building codes for requirements or
restrictions related to installation of ventilation products
in recirculation mode.
¡ Hood installation height above a cooktop, rangetop or
range can vary. To obtain the necessary installation
height above a cooktop, rangetop or range, consult the
appliance's installation manual or combination matrix.
NOTICE:
The hood can be damaged from excessive heat if a range
or rangetop is operated with multiple burners at high
settings under a hood that is installed at minimum
clearances and is turned off.
