Operation Cautions:
• Read and understand all instructions and warnings in this manual before operating the appliance.
• Always leave safety grills and filters in place. Without these components, operating blowers could catch
on to hair, fingers and loose clothing.
• NEVER dispose cigarette ashes, ignitable substances, or any foreign objects into blowers.
• NEVER leave cooking unattended. When frying, oil in the pan can easily overheat and catch fire. The
risk of self-combustion is higher when the oil has been used several times.
• NEVER cook on “open” flames under the range hood. Check deep-fryers during use: Superheated oil
may be flammable.
