Check Operation

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. The blower will start immediately if the blower control
knob is set to an "on" position.
2. 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.
For information on ordering, see the "Assistance or Service"

E. Filter or filters depending on model
3. Slide the control slider on the side of the vent to check the
speed of the blower.
If the blower does not operate:
Check that filter or filters are pressed in as far as they
will go.
Check that circuit breaker has not tripped or a household
fuse blown.
Check downdraft vent fuse located under power board.
4. Connect vent system to 10" (25.4 cm) round vent collar plate.
Position vent to avoid wall studs and floor joists. Complete all
vent work. Use clamps to seal all joints.
Vertical vent for wall-mounted installations should pitch down
slightly toward the vent to allow moisture to run outside.
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.

downdraft vent, read the "Vent System Use" section.
