WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:* 1. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - You may be burned. [. . . ] 3) NOTE Louvers on front of hood must be open and visible for hood to function in ductfree mode. Remove either top or rear electrical knockout depending upon whether wiring will enter hood from wall or cabinet. 4) DUCTED INSTALLATION ONLY NOTE Louver cover must be installed as shown in Figure 3 to function in ducted mode. Remove appropriate duct knockout on hood by inserting screwdriver into edge of knockout and breaking tabs holding knockout to hood. You may have to tap screwdriver with hammer to break tabs. Fit damper/duct connector over opening and secure in place with black sheet metal screws. 6) Hinge pins and damper/duct connector should be toward top of hood for ducting through wall or toward back of hood for ducting through cabinet above hood. Seal joint between damper/duct connector and hood with duct tape. 7" round ducted discharge only: Re-install 7" round duct plate removed in Step #2 under "PREPARING THE RANGE HOOD" section. For best performance, line up the 7" round duct plate with the 7" round opening on hood. Mount duct plate to hood with 2 screws from duct plate and 2 screws from 3¼" x 10" damper. IT IS A GOOD PRACTICE TO TAPE ALL DUCT CONNECTIONS, MAKING THEM BOTH SECURE AND AIR TIGHT. 15. Follow appropriate directions below for type of duct work you are installing: WALL CAPS (FIG. 9) Use a saber saw to cut a hole slightly larger than duct so duct will line up easily with hood. Install casing strips on outside walls finished in siding. Assemble the duct work and tape all joints. Fasten wall cap to last section of duct and nail or screw cap to wall. Seal all around flange on wall cap with caulking compound. Make sure that enough duct runs into the room so that the duct will overlap the damper/duct connector by 3/4" when the hood is installed. ROOF CAPS Cut hole in roof slightly larger than duct so duct will line up easily with hood. Trim shingles around hole so that they will fit snugly around hood of cap when cap is installed. Assemble the duct work and tape all joints. [. . . ] Products with original serial numbers that have been removed, altered or cannot be readily determined.
