SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:
1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the
manufacturer at the address or telephone num-
ber listed in the warranty.

panel.
3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be
done by a qualified person(s) in accordance with
all applicable codes and standards, including
fire-rated construction codes and standards.
4. Sufficient air is needed for proper combus-
tion and exhausting of gases through the flue
(chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent
backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment
manufacturer's guidelines and safety standards
such as those published by the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA), and the American
Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Condi-
tioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code
authorities.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE
FIRE:
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.
B. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat
or when cooking flaming foods (i.e. Crepes Su-
zette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe').
C. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should
not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
D. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware ap-
propriate for the size of the surface element.
