Ventilation System
_-" The built-in ventilation system removes cooking vapors, odors and smoke from foods
prepared on the cooktop, grill and grill accessories.
Regular use of this system will insure a more comfortable and less humid kitchen
which is free of heavy cooking odors and fumes that normally create a frequent
need for cleaning and redecorating.
Using the Ventilation System
• The fan control is located normally at the rear
of the control panel. To operate the ventilation
system manually, turn the fan control knob
clockwise. The variable speed fan can be
operated at an infinite number of settings when
using the cooktop cartridges or the griddle.
• The ventilation system will operate automatically when the grill element is
in use. NOTE: During grilling, the fan speed is automatically set for the Hi
setting and cannot be varied.
• Besides using the ventilation system to remove cooking vapors and fumes,
it can be used to cool baked pies, cakes or hot pans. To cool an item, set
it on the air grille and turn on the fan. The air being pulled over the item
will quickly cool it. Be careful not to cover the entire air grille.
• The fan can be used to remove strong odors from the kitchen as when chopping
onions near the fan.
Cleaning the Ventilation System
Grille:
The air grille lifts off easily. Wipe clean or wash in sink with mild
'_,,_,lousehold detergents. May be cleaned in dishwasher.
Filter: Turn off ventilation system before
removing. The filter is a permanent type and
should be cleaned when soiled. Clean in sink
with warm water and liquid dishwashing
detergent or in dishwasher.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT OPERATE SYSTEM
WITHOUT FILTER. Filter should always be
placed at an angle. As you face the front of the
cooktop, the bottom of the filter should rest on
the ledge on the left side. The top of the filter
should rest against the right side. There are also
ledges on the front and rear sides for the filter
to rest. (NOTE: If filter is flat against the fan wall,
ventilation effectiveness is reduced.)
Ventilation Chamber-" This area, which houses the filter, should be cleaned
in the event of spills or whenever it becomes coated with a film of grease. May
be cleaned with paper towel, damp cloth, or sponge and mild household detergent
or cleanser. (Note: for easier cleaning, remove the basin pans.)
