Important Safety Instructions General Safety Precautions To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death when using this blower, follow basic safety precautions, including the following: warning • Do not install or operate this unit if it has been damaged, dropped, has damaged electrical wiring or is not working properly. If the product is damaged when received, immediately contact the dealer or builder. • Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with these installation instructions and the Dacor hood or downdraft vent installation instructions. Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause serious personal injury or property damage. • Before installing or servicing the in-line blower, make sure that power to the wiring is turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box. Make sure that the service panel is locked or tagged to prevent power from being switched on accidently. • To reduce the risk of electric shock or fire, the total combined current draw of the in-line blower and the hood or downdraft vent must not exceed the maximum rated input current of the hood or downdraft vent. • The installer must show the customer the location of the fuse or circuit breaker panel so that the customer knows where and how to turn the power off. warning • A minimum of two people are required to safely install this appliance. • Never allow the filters or vent openings on the hood or downdraft vent to become blocked or clogged. Do not allow foreign objects, such as cigarettes or napkins, to be sucked into the vent holes. • Tape all duct joints securely to prevent combustion by-products, smoke or odors from entering the home. Doing so will also improve system efficiency. • Do not route electrical wiring near hot surfaces. • Do not ground the appliance with the neutral (white) house supply wire. A separate ground wire must be utilized. • To prevent a damaged or non-functional system, complete electrical connections properly. Follow the wiring diagrams carefully in the hood or in-line blower installation instructions to ensure a proper installation. After installation or service, make sure that all blower wires are tightly connected to their respective terminals. 2
