SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
This manual explains the proper installation and use of your cooker hood,
please read it carefully before using even if you are familiar with the
product. The manual should be kept in a safe place for future reference.

Range hoods and other cooking fume extractors may adversely affect the safe operation of appliances burning gas or other fuels (including those in other rooms) due to back flow of combustion gases.
These gases can potentially result in carbon monoxide poisoning. After installation of a range hood or other cooking fume extractor, the operation of open flued gas appliances should be tested by a competent person to ensure that backflow of combustion gases does not occur.
