NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduce performance.
Determine Range Blower Setting
This cooktop is equipped with a dual range blower. It is shipped from the factory in the low range for most installations. If the equivalent duct length exceeds 30 ft (9.1 m), it must be converted to high range. Do not convert the blower to high range for shorter lengths; this will cause excessive noise and conditioned air loss. Convert blower before installing into countertop if necessary.
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install cooktop. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
To Convert to High Range:
1.Using 2 or more people, place cooktop on floor with front edge and plenum down.
2.Remove the four acorn nuts (A) that attach the blower motor assembly to the blower exhaust scroll.
3.Remove the blower motor assembly (B) from the blower exhaust scroll (E).
4.Slowly reach in the blower exhaust scroll opening and remove the snap ring (C).
5.Gently remove the restrictor ring (D).
6.Place the motor assembly back on the studs of the blower exhaust scroll.
7.Reattach the four acorn nuts to secure the blower motor assembly back to the blower exhaust scroll.
