NOTE: To get the most efficient use from your new retractable

VENTSYSTEM USE
The retractable downdraft vent system is designed to remove smoke, cooking vapors and odors from the cooktop area.
For best results, the vent should be operating before cooking
is started.
If you use large or tall utensils, place them on the large rear
element or burner surface.
A higher heat setting than normally used may be needed
when the downdraft
vent is operating.
For gas cooktops, the downdraft vent system may affect the
flame stability and cooking performance. To improve the
burner performance,
either decrease the downdraft vent
blower speed or increase the cooktop burner flame setting.
For gas cooktops with flame sensing ignitions, the downdraft
vent system may disperse the flame away from the spark
igniter and may cause it to continually spark while trying to
reignite a burner that is already lit. To resolve the issue of the
cooktop igniter continuously
sparking, either decrease the
downdraft vent blower speed or increase the cooktop flame
setting for that burner.
