not use this range hood with any external

solid-state speed control device. Any such

alteration fl'om original thctory wiring could

result in damage to the trait ai'ld/or create an

electrical safety hazard.

To reduce the risk of fire and to properly

exhaust aiI; be sm'e to duct air outdoors. Do

not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or

ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces or garages.

_\:ARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,

USE ONINMETAL DUCT_VORK.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC

SHOCK OR INJURY TO PERSONS,

on accidentally. If the service panel cam_ot be

locked, thsten a tag or prominent warning

label to the panel.

For general ventilating use only. Do not use

to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials

and vapors.

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 tirol burning equipment to

prevent back drafting. Follow the heating

eq uipm ent manuthcturer's guideline and

satiety standards such as those published bv the

National Fire Protection Association (NFPA),

outdoors.

• Use tile shortest and straightest duct route

possible. For satistactory perflwmance, duct

run should not exceed 100 feet equivalent

length tot any duct configm_ations.

• Refer to "Duct Fittings" chart to compute tile
