Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
C. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
D. 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 - This could cause a violent steam explosion.
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 has been called.
D. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
* Based on “Kitchen Fire Safety Tips” published by NFPA.
! CAUTION
!• For indoor residential use only.
• To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside. Do not vent exhaust air
into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.
• Take care when using cleaning agents or detergents.
• Avoid using food products that produce flames under the range hood.
• For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
• To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impellers, keep drywall spray,

INSTALL THE DUCTWORK
NOTE: To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
1. Decide where the ductwork will run between the insert and
the outside (FIG. 1).
2. Choose desired blower outlet position (FIG. 2).
3. A straight, short duct run using 8" round damper (included
with blower kit) for single internal blower and 10" round
damper (included with the hood) for all other blower types
will allow the hood to perform most efficiently.
4. Long duct runs, elbows and transitions will reduce the
performance of the hood. Use as few of them as possible.
5. Install wall cap or roof cap (sold separately). Connect metal
ductwork to cap and work back towards the hood location. Use
2” foil duct tape to seal the joints between ductwork
sections.

APPLICABLE LAW, THE COMPANY DISCLAIMS AND EXCLUDES ALL OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, AND
DISCLAIMS AND EXCLUDES ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS IMPLIED BY LAW, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THOSE OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. To the extent that applicable law prohibits the exclusion of implied warranties
or conditions, the duration of any applicable implied warranty or condition is limited to the period specified for the express warranty above. Some
jurisdictions (which may include th eProvince of Québec or specific US states) do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the
above limitation may not apply to you. Any oral or written description of the Product is for the sole purpose of identifying it and shall not be construed
as an express warranty.
Whenever possible, each provision of this Limited Warranty shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if

! AVERTISSEMENT
AFIN DE RÉDUIRE LES RISQUES DE FEU DE CUISINIÈRE :
A. Ne jamais laisser les appareils de cuisson sans surveillance lorsqu’ils sont réglés
à feu vif. Les débordements engendrent de la fumée et des déversements
graisseux pouvant s’enflammer. Chauffez l’huile lentement, à feu doux ou moyen.
B. Mettez toujours la hotte en marche lorsque vous cuisinez à feu vif ou que vous
cuisinez des mets flambés (par ex. : crêpes Suzette, cerises jubilé, steaks au
poivre flambés).
C. Nettoyez régulièrement la roue du ventilateur. Ne laissez pas la graisse
s’accumuler sur le ventilateur, le filtre ou les conduits d’évacuation.
D. Utilisez le bon format de casserole. Servez-vous toujours de casseroles
et d’ustensiles appropriés à la dimension de la surface chauffante.
AFIN DE RÉDUIRE TOUT RISQUE DE BLESSURES LORS D’UN FEU DE CUISINIÈRE, SUIVEZ
CES DIRECTIVES* :
1. ÉTOUFFEZ LES FLAMMES avec un couvercle hermétique, une tôle à biscuits
ou un plateau métallique et ensuite, éteignez le brûleur. PRENEZ SOIN D’ÉVITER
les brûlures. SI LES FLAMMES NE S’ÉTEIGNENT PAS IMMÉDIATEMENT,
ÉVACUEZ LES LIEUX ET APPELEZ LES POMPIERS.
2. NE PRENEZ JAMAIS UNE CASSEROLE EN FLAMMES DANS VOS MAINS.
Vous pourriez vous brûler.
3. N’UTILISEZ PAS D’EAU, incluant un linge à vaisselle ou une serviette mouillée,
cela pourrait occasionner une violente explosion de vapeur.
4. N’utilisez un extincteur QUE DANS LE CAS OÙ :
A. Vous possédez un extincteur de classe ABC et vous en connaissez
le fonctionnement.
B. Le feu est petit et limité à l’endroit où il a débuté.
C. Les pompiers ont été avisés.
D. Vous pouvez combattre l’incendie en ayant accès à une sortie de secours.

! ATTENTION
!
• Pour une utilisation résidentielle et à l’intérieur seulement.
• Afin de réduire les risques d’incendie et évacuer l’air adéquatement, assurez-vous que les conduits évacuent l’air
à l’extérieur. Ne pas évacuer l’air dans des espaces restreints comme l’intérieur des murs ou plafond ou dans le
grenier, faux plafond ou garage.
• Soyez prudents lors de l’utilisation d’agents nettoyants ou de détergents.
• Évitez d’utiliser sous la hotte des produits alimentaires pouvant s’enflammer.
• Pour usage domestique seulement. Ne pas utiliser pour évacuer des vapeurs ou des matières dangereuses ou
explosives.
• Afin d’éviter tout dommage au moteur et de débalancer ou de rendre bruyante la roue du moteur, garder votre
appareil à l’abri des poussières de gypse et de construction/rénovation, etc.
• Le moteur de votre hotte possède une protection thermique qui éteindra automatiquement le moteur s’il devient
surchauffé. Le moteur redémarrera automatiquement une fois refroidi. Si le moteur continue à arrêter et à
redémarrer, faites-le vérifier.
• Pour une meilleure évacuation des odeurs de cuisson, le bas de votre hotte devrait être situé à UN MINIMUM de
48 po et à un maximum recommandé de 84 po au-dessus de la surface de cuisson.
• Veuillez consulter l’autocollant apposé à l’intérieur de la hotte pour plus d’information ou autres exigences.
