RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. 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 3-prong grounding plug.
The plug must be connected into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician
determine that the ground path is adequate.
A 110-120-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, fused electrical supply is required on a separate 15-amp circuit,
fused on both sides of the line.
Do not ground to a gas pipe.
The range hood should be connected directly to the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box
through flexible armored or non-metallic sheathed copper cable. A U.L. - or C.S.A. - listed strain
relief must be provided at each end of the power supply cable. Do not use extension cord or
adapter plug with this appliance.
Set the electrical power outlet within the space covered by the decorative chimney.
Position the outlet offset so that the power cord will not interfere with the round duct.
Also, make sure this installation does not interfere with a mounting bracket fastening area or with
the decorative chimney (where the chimney touches the wall).
