! WARNING

When planning the cutout for the downdraft:

• Draw both the cooktop and downdraft cutouts on the countertop before making any cuts.

• The rear edge of the cooktop must be determined to use the template included in the carton.

• Check that there is enough room in the cabinet for both.

Failure to follow these warnings could result in damage to the countertop.

INSTALL THE DOWNDRAFT

1.Remove the unit from the carton and place on a flat surface for assembly. Cover the surface to prevent accidental damage. Remove all downdraft parts including the 6 mounting brackets, 2 end caps, 16 screws, literature package, and backdraft damper (Internal Blower Model Only) before discarding the carton. For remote blower models, the damper plate that is included with the remote blower must be attached to the front of the blower box.

2.Attach the Overcounter Support Arms to the left and right sides of the downdraft body as indicated in FIGURE 8. Two short screwsareprovided. Attachtheendcapstotheleftandrightsides of the downdraft over the Overcounter Support Arms. Attach the Lower Support Legs to left and right sides of the downdraft into the threaded slots on each side. The Lower Support Legs have holes for mounting to the cabinet floor and can be installed on either side depending upon the length required. Determine if the holes should be in the front or on the sides.

3.Carefully insert the unit into the cutout. Due to the size and weight, two people are recommended when lifting this unit. Make sure that the downdraft is fully seated in the cutout and the support arms rest firmly on the countertop.

4.Adjust the Lower Support Legs until both rest firmly on the cabinet floor. Place a level vertically on the front side of the blower box to make sure that the unit is level and not leaning to the front or rear. Once the unit is properly aligned, mark a starter hole on the cabinet floor where the Lower Support Legs will attach to the cabinet floor.

5.Remove the unit from the cabinet. Drill starter holes in the cabinet floor for the leg screws.
