Your Range/Microwave Combination has a dual-level exhaust vent system for removal of steam, grease and cooking odors. You may use the lower vent alone or add the top vent for maximum venting.

To use onlv the lower vent:

l Push the Exhaust switch down to the right for HIGH fan speed.

l Push the switch down to the left for LOW fan soeed.

l Center the switch to turn the vent sys- tem OFF.

To use both vents:

l Raise the vent door above the microwave oven.

. Turn on desired fan speed by followina directions at left

NOTE: It the temperature				gets	too	hot	around	the	microwave	oven when	it is in
use, the	exhaust fan		will	automatically			turn	on, or	change to	the HIGH setting.
It this occurs		it cannot	be turned			off	with the	EXHAUST switch. It will stay			on
until the	area	cools down		or	until	the	microwave		oven shuts	off. This protects
the oven.											I
