Refer to the illustrations and specifications for overall dimensions and installation specifics.

Wolf downdraft ventilation systems are recommended for use with Wolf electric and gas cooktops and integrated modules, excluding the grill, steamer and fryer modules. The down- draft should be at least as wide as the cooking surface.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Wolf downdraft ventilation systems cannot be used with Wolf dual fuel ranges, gas ranges, sealed burner rangetops and gas rangetops. A Wolf Pro ventilation hood should be used.

The 36" (914) downdraft will fit most 36"

(914)wide cabinets. Cabinet backs may need to be removed. It is recommended that oversized cabinets be used for easier installation.

To incorporate a downdraft system and a Wolf cooktop, you must allow for a minimum 251/8" (638) flat counter space from front to back. A countertop with a raised lip and/or backsplash may not allow enough space for proper installation. 2 3/8" (60) of flat countertop is required behind the cooktop and 13/4" (44) is necessary between the back edge of the cooktop and inside of cabinet back. Follow dimensions given in the Countertop Cut-out illustration on page 3.

Model DD36I has a 500 CFM internal blower. Model DD36R is shipped without the blower assembly. In-line and remote blower assemblies are available. Blower options vary with the volume of air that needs to be moved and the length of the duct run. Refer to the charts at the end of this section for cooktop ventilation recommendations and blower options.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Install this downdraft only with a Wolf blower.

Wolf downdraft ventilation systems require a separate, grounded 120 V AC, 60 Hz power supply. The service should have its own 15 amp circuit breaker and a grounded 3-prong receptacle should be located within the reach of the 2' (.6 m) power cord. The specific location of the outlet is not critical, as long as it is within reach of the power cord that is located mid-way, top and bottom on the right side of the downdraft.

If the 36" (914) downdraft is being installed in a 36" (914) wide cabinet, the outlet cannot be located on the back wall of the cabinet. It is recommended that the outlet be placed in an adjacent cabinet within reach of the power cord. Refer to the Location of Electrical illustra- tion on page 4.

IMPORTANT NOTE: A ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) is not recommended and may cause interruption of operation.

You must follow all National Electrical Code regulations. In addition, be aware of local codes and ordinances when installing your service.

This appliance must be used with a Wolf approved remote mounted control module and top cover, which is included in the downdraft control kit, available as a sales accessory.

Installation of the control module must be within 10' (3 m) of the downdraft assembly and a minimum of 4" (102) from the outer edge of cooktop element or burner. You will be required to drill three holes and connect the two units by the provided wire.

Refer to the installation instructions shipped with each Wolf product for detailed specifications.
