Electrical Shock Hazard
Electrically ground blower.
Connect ground wire to green and yellow ground wire
in terminal box.
Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.
3. Connect the green (or green/yellow) ground wire to the green
or yellow/green ground wire using UL listed wire connectors.
Tighten the screw on the conduit connector.
4. Connect the 2 white wires together using UL listed wire
connectors.
1. Push and hold the button on the top of the downdraft vent for
a few seconds. The retractable section of the downdraft vent
will rise, and the blower will start. Position the top trim over
the retractable section and snap trim into place.
Trim kits for matching your cooktop color are available from
your dealer.

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.

2. Slide the control slider on the side of vent to check the
operation and speed of the blower.
3. If the blower does not operate:
Check that filter or filters are pressed in as far as they will
go.
Check that the circuit breaker has not tripped or a
household fuse blown.
4. Connect vent system to blower. Vent system must end with a
wall or roof cap. Use clamps or duct tape to seal all joints.
5. Install cooktop according to manufacturer's instructions.
Check that rear of cooktop overlaps edge of retractable
downdraft vent by ³⁄₈" (9.5 mm). See "Countertop Cutout
Dimensions" in the "Location Requirements" section.
NOTE: To get the most efficient use from your new retractable
downdraft vent, read the "Vent System Use" section.
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.
