For Best Results
Turn the blower on before starting to cook.
A higher heat setting may be needed when the downdraft is in operation.
Use a rear burner when browning or pan frying meat.
Open a window or inside door slightly.
Clean the filters and the wall behind the filters frequently.
For Gas Cooktops, a lower blower speed should be used if:
•the gas flame is being distorted by the air movement.
•the burner continually sparks (clicks).
•the burner flame repeatedly blows out.
To Raise the Intake
Press the control push-button once to raise the intake.
The intake will stop automatically at its maximum height.
The blower will automatically turn on to the previously set blower speed.
To Set or Adjust Blower Speed
Vary the blower speed as needed for the food or the cooking method being used.
For example: greasy or pungent foods require greater ventilation power than boiling pasta. Turn the button clockwise to adjust the speed.
