WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury when
using your unit, observe the following:
• Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by
qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes
and standards, including fire-rated construction.
• Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and
exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel
burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the
heating equipment manufacturer's guideline and safety
standards such as those published by the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for
Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers
(ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
• When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage
electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
• Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
• WARNING!: To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal
ductwork.
• CAUTION!: 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.

4. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the surface element.

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
a violent steam explosion will result.
4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if
• You know it is 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 can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
For general ventilating use only. DO NOT use to
