The GFK-160A blower system operates on 120 VAC, 60 Hz power. This is available through a receptacle in the factory installed junction box. The junction box is mounted in the bottom of the appliance behind the access panel. A variable speed control is provided with the blower system to provide quiet forced air flow at the desired speeds. A temperature sensor switch, which automatically turns the blower ON/OFF, is also provided with this kit.

Tools Required: Powered screwdriver with Phillips head bit; a flashlight is helpful.

Compare contents of carton with the actual parts received. If any parts are missing or damaged, contact your dealer before starting installation. Do not install a damaged blower kit. See Figure 8.22.
