Safety
Specific Safety Precautions:
• Exercise care when removing wooden crate framework and the unit from shipping pallet. These units are top-
heavy and extreme care must be taken when moving the unit into position.
• Once located, be sure unit is properly leveled and anchored.
• DO NOT operate the appliance, unless the intended function of components and all operating procedures are
fully understood (see Section 3). Once you have read and fully understand Section 3, closely follow the
instructions presented in this Manual to avoid equipment damage or malfunction.
• The appliance is not intended to be used by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given adequate instruction
and/or supervision concerning use by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be kept clear of the
appliance.
• When working in a kitchen environment, take necessary precautions to avoid injury due to HOT cooking
appliances, utensils, tools, etc. As applicable, always wear thermal protection, such as oven mitts or gloves,
when handling hot pans, utensils or foods.
• Failure to comply with CAUTION notices may result in minor to moderate personal injury, damage to equipment
or property, and potentially void the warranty.
• Some components and controls are impact-sensitive. To avoid damage and maintain proper operation, exercise
care when moving items and working near the hood.
• Handle the Electronic Air Cleaner (E.A.C.) cell carefully. DO NOT bend the collection plates (fins) or break the
ionizer wires, as this will significantly reduce the performance of the air cleaning system and can eventually
cause power supplying the fryer beneath hood to be shutdown.
• DO NOT attempt to dry the E.A.C. cell after cleaning by installing it and running the hood. NEVER PLACE A WET
E.A.C. CELL INTO THE HOOD, as doing so can potentially damage the system and cause improper operation.
Such damage is NOT cover by the factory warranty.
• When cleaning the appliance:
- DO NOT steam clean hood.
- DO NOT clean with products containing chlorine, or other corrosive chemicals.
- DO NOT use abrasive products, steel wool or scouring pads.
- DO NOT use oven cleaner products.
• DO NOT alter, add attachments, or otherwise modify this equipment! DO NOT attach any type of ductwork
extensions to the hood exhaust in an attempt to redirect airflow.
• Failure to comply with CAUTION notices may result in damage to equipment or property. Such damages are
NOT covered by the factory warranty.
