Install the Optional Fan - SDDVT Series
If you are installing the optional convection Fan Kit
#767 (FK6), continue here. If you are not installing a
Fan Kit, go to Page 16, Venting System Assembly.
1. The fan kit includes a Blower Assembly and a Rheo-
stat Assembly, connected by a cable. (Fig. 14) The
Blower Assembly mounts to the bottom rear of the
stove, and the Rheostat mounts to the valve bracket
to the left of the valve. The assembly includes a
'snapstat' which automatically turns the fan On (or
Off) above (or below) approximately 109°. The Rheo-
stat also provides a range of fan speed settings from
Off (which overrides the snapstat function) to High.
Unpack and inspect the Blower assembly. Confirm
the fan spins freely.
WARNING
This appliance is equipped with a three-prong
(grounded) plug for your protection against shock
hazard and should be plugged directly into a prop-
erly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or
remove the grounding prong from this plug.
