SAFETY INFORMATION
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO
NOT USE THIS FAN WITH ANY SOLID-STATE SPEED CONTROL
DEVICE.
Regardless of heat level, never leave any surface materials unattended
while operating an open flame.
Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat.
Depending on amount of usage, clean ventilating fans and filters
frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
For instructions on the how to clean, see maintenance page.
Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boil-overs may
cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite as result. Heat oils
slowly on low or medium settings.
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:
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 911.
NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - Doing so may result in serious
burns and possibly spread the fire.
DO NOT USE WATER
– Grease fire must be extinguished before
further action may be taken. Using water will agitate the grease and
may cause a violent steam explosion.
Use a Fire Extinguisher ONLY if:
You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you
already know how to operate it.
The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
The fire department is being called.
You are able to safely control the fire with your back to an open
exit. * Based on “Kitchen Fire safety Tips” published by NFPA.
