WARNING - RANGETOPS ONLY: To reduce the risk of burns or ignition of clothing by reaching across burners, an "R" model

downdraft (with remote control) MUST be used with a rangetop. The remote control MUST be mounted in the countertop - at least 4" from the burners. See "INSTALL COOKTOP" section on page 8.

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

INTENDED FOR DOMESTIC COOKING ONLY

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer at the address or telephone number in the warranty.

2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock the service disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by a qualiﬁ ed person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including ﬁ re-rated construction codes and standards.

4. Sufﬁ cient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the ﬂ ue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

5. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

6. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.

7. To reduce the risk of ﬁ re, use only metal ductwork.

8. Do not install this product with the activating switch directly behind a burner or element. Minimum distance between the switch and the edge of the burner should be 4 inches.

9. Loose-ﬁ tting or hanging clothing should never be worn when operating this appliance. They may be ignited by burners/ elements on cooktop.

10. Children should not be left alone or unattended in the area where this appliance is in use.

11. This unit must be grounded.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

a) Never leave surface units unattended at high settings.

Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

b) Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when

cooking ﬂ aming foods.

c) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be

allowed to accumulate on fan or ﬁ lter.

d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate

for the size of the surface element.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING

1. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-ﬁ tting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the ﬂ ames do not go out immedi ately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

3. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels

- a violent steam explosion will result.

4. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

A. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you

already know how to operate it.

B. The ﬁ re is small and contained in the area where it

started.

C. The ﬁ re department is being called. D. You can ﬁ ght the ﬁ re with your back to an exit.

Based on “Kitchen Firesafety Tips” published by NFPA.

NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - You may be burned.

CAUTION

1. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

2. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impellers, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. off power unit.

3. Clean ﬁ lters and grease-laden surfaces frequently.

4. Do not repair or replace any part of this appliance unless speciﬁ cally recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be done by a qualiﬁ ed technician.

5. Please read specification label on product for further information and requirements.

6. DO NOT INSTALL WITH GRILL MODEL RANGETOPS. This will void the warranty.

7. Models VIPR102SS, VIPR162SS, and VIPR182SS (non- remote units): DO NOT INSTALL WITH RANGETOPS. This will void the warranty.

TAKE MEASUREMENTS

All Units

1. Refer to the cooktop installation instructions for dimensions of cooktop, countertop cut-out, and cabinet requirements. The Models VIPR102SS and VIPR102RSS will ﬁ t in most 30" wide cabinets the Models VIPR162SS and VIPR162RSS will ﬁ t in most 36" wide cabinets and the Models VIPR182SS and VIPR182RSS will ﬁ t most 48" wide cabinets. However, it is recommended that oversized cabinets be used for easier installation.

2. Cooktop depth can vary greatly from one to another. This may cause the ﬁ t of these two appliances to be rather tight.

Pay special attention to the areas of potential interference highlighted above. A countertop with (A) a raised lip and/or (B) a backsplash may not allow enough ﬂ at countertop for a proper installation. Note that 2" of ﬂ at countertop is required behind cooktop and that 1-3/4" is necessary between the back edge of the cooktop and the inside of cabinet back.

1. The Interior Downdraft Blower system draws 4 AMPS and requires a 120 VAC, 60 Hz circuit.

2. The downdraft has a 2 ft. long power cord with a 3-pronged plug. Plan to provide a grounded outlet in a location which will allow the unit’s power cord to reach.

IMPORTANT - LOCATION OF ELECTRICAL OUTLET: If Models VIPR102SS or VIPR102RSS are being installed

in a 30" wide cabinet...

or Models VIPR162SS or VIPR162RSS are being

installed in a 36" wide cabinet...

or Models VIPR182SS or VIPR182RSS are being

installed in a 48" wide cabinet...

...the outlet cannot be located on the back wall of

cabinet.

In these cases, the width of the downdraft covers nearly

the entire width of the back wall of the cabinet. So you must either:

• mount the electrical box to a side wall or cabinet ﬂ oor

- at least 12 inches from the back wall.

• mount the electrical box to a wall stud behind the cabinet - where it will not be covered by the downdraft. Then provide a clearance hole in the back wall of the cabinet.

PLEASE NOTE: External blowers must be hard-wired using locally-supplied wire and connected to the downdraft plug (included).

Interior Blower Installation

The downdraft is shipped without a blower. Purchase a Model VIDV500 Interior Blower and mount it to the downdraft as follows:

1. Place the downdraft on its back on a table of ﬂ at work surface.

2. Remove the 4 nuts and 2 clamp channels.

3. Remove 2 screws and the gear motor cover.

4. Carefully position the blower under the bottom ﬂ ange of the downdraft with the 3¼" x 10" discharge pointed in the desired direction.

5. Connect motor plug.

6. Replace the gear motor cover and 2 sheet metal screws.

7. Replace the 2 clamp channels and start the 4 nuts, do not tighten.

8. Slide blower left of right to desired position. Use cover plate (supplied) to close up any open space.

INSTALLATION OF REMOTE CONTROL SWITCH

WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns or ignition of clothing by reaching across burners, the remote control must be mounted at least 4" away from any cook top burner.

Keep in mind you do not want to place the control where it will be in the way for cooking, or where hot pans could be set, or hot liquids spilled on the control.

1. Using the template below, lay out the 3-hole pattern on the counter top. Mark the centers of the three holes to be drilled.

2. Carefully drill the three holes through the counter top. Be careful not to damage or chip the counter top surface when drilling the holes.

3. Remove the control from the plastic bag. Remove the paper from the adhesive back of the control, line the control up with the three holes and position the control so it is parallel with the front of the counter top. Press down ﬁ rmly for 60 seconds.

4. Remove the two nylon thumbnuts from the plastic bag and thread onto the two studs on the control from below the counter top. Hand tighten only. The thumbnuts just need to be snugged by hand. They are there to hold the control in place until the adhesive sets up.

5. Remove cable from the plastic bag and plug into back of control from below counter top. Route cable through cabinet to lower right hand corner of downdraft. Plug other end of cable into the downdraft unit. (Receptacle hole for cabinet is on the lower right hand side of the downdraft.)

6. Stuff excess cable out of the way and secure the cable so it is not damaged from items stored in the cabinet.
