VENT SYSTEM USE

The retractable downdraft vent system is designed to remove smoke, cooking vapors and odors from the cooktop area.

■For best results, the vent should be operating before cooking is started.

■If you use large or tall utensils, place them on the large rear element or burner surface.

■A higher heat setting than normally used may be needed when the downdraft vent is operating.

■For gas cooktops, the downdraft vent system may affect the flame stability and cooking performance. To improve the burner performance, either decrease the downdraft vent blower speed or increase the cooktop burner flame setting.

■For gas cooktops with flame sensing ignitions, the downdraft vent system may disperse the flame away from the spark igniter and may cause it to continually spark while trying to reignite a burner that is already lit. To resolve the issue of the cooktop igniter continuously sparking, either decrease the downdraft vent blower speed or increase the cooktop flame setting for that burner.

Operating Downdraft Vent

To Use:

1.Push and hold the button on top of downdraft vent for a few seconds. (This slight delay helps avoid unintentional raising of the vent during cleaning of the cooktop area.) Retractable section of downdraft vent will rise. Blower will begin to vent immediately if blower control knob slider is set to an “On” position.

2.Slide the control slider on the right-hand side of the downdraft vent to adjust the blower motor speed.

When Cooking Is Complete:

1.Push the button on top of the retractable downdraft vent. The blower will turn off, and the retractable section of the vent will return to the closed position.

NOTE: If a spill occurs on the cooktop that allows liquids to seep inside the downdraft vent, you must turn the downdraft vent off immediately. It is possible to cause damage to the downdraft vent if water is allowed inside the downdraft vent while it is operating.

2.Immediately turn off the downdraft vent at the speed control located on the right-hand side of the downdraft vent.

3.Turn off the power supply to the downdraft vent at the circuit breaker box or fuse box.

4.Allow plenty of time for the downdraft vent to dry naturally. Do not open the downdraft vent to remove the water.
