FEATURES

Raised Intake

O Intake Top Cap

Control Button Filters

The downdraft takes the place of an overhead hood and can be conveniently hidden away (lowered) when not in use.

Intake

The intake, when raised, captures and channels the cooking odors, steam and

grease. The filters are located within the intake.

Control Button The control button is located on the top

right of the intake. Press the Button once to raise or lower the intake. It isnot necessary

to hold the Button. Turn the button clockwise to adjust the

speed. There are three speeds: low, medium, and high.

_1 Filter Release Lever O1 Blower (not shown)

There are five primary parts of the downdraft system: the intake, the control

button, the blower, the filter and the filter release lever.

Blower The blower is the fan that draws the cooking odors out of the house.

Filters The filters are located on the front of the

intake. They condense and trap the grease in the air.

Filter Release Levers The filter release levers are used to remove

the filters. Pull out on the lever then pull up and out on the filter.

OPERATION

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.

To Lower the Intake [] Press the control push-button once.

Note: The blower will turn off when the intake is lowered if operating when the

control push-button is pressed.

If Intake Stops

[] Locate and remove obstruction. [] Press control button to raise intake.

[] Press control button again to lower

intake.
