In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk

of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.

The 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.

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.

food (i.e. Crêpes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef

accumulate on fan or filters.

d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size

of the surface element.

2. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous

or explosive materials and vapors.

impeller, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. off power unit.

shut off the motor if it becomes overheated. The motor will restart

when it will cool down. If the motor continues to shut off and

restart, have the hood serviced.

5. The bottom of the hood MUST NOT BE LESS than 24” and

recommended at a maximum of 36” above cooktop for best

capture of cooking impurities.
