Grease Filter

The efficiency of your downdraft depends on a clean
filter. Frequency of cleaning depends on the type of
cooking you do. Grease filters should be cleaned at
least once a month. Never operate the downdraft
without the filters in place.
To remove: Pull the filters out by grasping them and
pulling straight up.
To clean: Soak and then agitate in a hot detergent
solution. Light brushing may be used to remove
imbedded soil. Rinse, shake and remove moisture
before replacing.
With careful handling, the filter will last for years.
If replacement becomes necessary, order the part from
your dealer.

POWER SUPPLY BY REMOVING THE
POWER CORD FROM THE RECEPTACLE.

POSSIBLE CAUSE
• The vent must be fully extended before the downdraft will work.
• The blower control knob must be turned in a clockwise direction to turn
the blower on.
NOTE: The filters are different sizes. Be sure to
replace them with the longer filter on the left.
When replacing the filters, the long one goes in the
left side.

Painted or Metal Surfaces

Clean greasy surfaces frequently, using a mild
detergent. Do not use abrasive cloth, steel wool
pads or scouring powder because they will mar
the surface.
Stainless Steel
(on some models)
Clean with warm sudsy water, a stainless steel cleaner
such as Kleen King ® , or an all-purpose liquid or spray
cleaner. Always scrub in the direction of the grain.
Rinse thoroughly with a sponge or cloth and clean
water. Dry with a soft, clean cloth.
Do not use a soap-filled steel wool pad; it will scratch
the surface.
