IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING

YOUR APPLIANCE

Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts

free of grease that could catch fire. Do not allow

grease to accumulate. Greasy deposits in the fan

could catch fire.

Always follow the manufacturer’s recommended

directions for use of kitchen cleaners and

aerosols. Be aware that excess residue from

cleaners and aerosols may ignite causing

damage and injury.

Clean ventilating hoods frequently - Grease

should not be allowed to accumulate on hood or

filter. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for

cleaning vent hoods.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR SERVICE

AND MAINTENANCE

Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance

unless specifically recommended in the manuals.

All other servicing should be done only by a

qualified technician. This reduces the risk of

personal injury and damage to the appliance.

Always contact your dealer, distributor, service

agent, or manufacturer about problems or condi-

tions you do not understand.

Ask your dealer to recommend a qualified techni-

cian and an authorized repair service. Know how

to disconnect the power to the appliance at the

circuit breaker or fuse box in case of an emer-

gency.

Important Safety Notice -

The California Safe

Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act

requires the governor of California to publish a list

of substances known to cause cancer, birth

defects, or other reproductive harms, and

requires businesses to warn customers of

potential exposures to such substances.

Before manually cleaning any part of the appli-

ance, be sure all controls are turned off and the

appliance is cool. Cleaning a hot appliance can

cause burns.

CAUTION
