1. Use this unit in the manner intended by the manufacturer.
If you have any questions, contact the manufacturer.
2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service

concealed electrical wiring or any other hidden utilities.
5. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
6. NEVER place a switch where it
