Venting Requirements

Make sure there is proper clearance within the wall or floor before making exhaust vent cutouts. or stud, a supporting frame must be constructed.

• Use heavy (rigid) metal vent.
• Venting system must terminate to the outside.
• Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area.
• Do not use 4" (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall caps.
• Do not install two elbows together.
• Do not use plastic or metal foil vent.
• The length of vent system and number of elbows should be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.
• Use no more than three 90° elbows.
• Make sure there is a minimum of 24" (61 cm) of straight vent between the elbows if more than one elbow is used.
• Use clamps or duct tape to seal all joints in the vent system.
• Use caulking tape to seal the exterior wall or floor opening around cap.
• Do not cut joist or stud. If vent cutout falls over a joist or stud, a supporting frame must be constructed.

Flexible metal vent is not recommended. If it is used, calculate each foot of flexible vent as 2 ft (0.6 m) of rigid metal vent.
Flexible elbows count twice as much as standard elbows.

Recommended vent system length:
For either interior-mounted or exterior-mounted blower installations, the vent system length should not exceed the maximum lengths listed in the "Maximum Length of Vent System" chart. See "Calculating Vent System Length" in the "Venting Methods" section in the Installation Instructions.

Cold Weather Installations
An additional backdraft damper should be installed to minimize backward cold airflow and a thermal break should be installed to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the vent system. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break.
The break should be as close as possible to where the vent system enters the heated portion of the house.

Makeup Air
Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems when using ventilation systems greater than specified CFM of air movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your area.

Determine which venting method is best for your application. Vent system can terminate either through the wall or floor.

Island Location

1. Down vent

NOTE: For island locations, a front- or rear-mounted blower motor can also be mounted for right or left venting if needed for your application. Most island applications would still require the venting to be directed down through the floor.

   • 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.

VENT SYSTEM USE

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.
• 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.

Operating Downdraft Vent

To Use:

1. Push and hold the button on top of downdraft vent for a few seconds. (This slight delay helps avoid unintentional raising of the vent during cleaning of the cooktop area.) Retractable section of downdraft vent will rise. Blower will begin to vent immediately if blower control knob slider is set to an On position.
2. Slide the control slider on the right-hand side of the downdraft vent to adjust the blower motor speed.

When Cooking Is Complete:

1. Push the button on top of the retractable downdraft vent. The blower will turn off and the retractable section of the vent will return to the closed position.
   NOTE: If a spill occurs on the cooktop that allows liquids to seep inside the downdraft vent, you must turn the downdraft vent off immediately. It is possible to cause damage to the downdraft vent if water is allowed inside the downdraft vent while it is operating.
2. Immediately turn off the downdraft vent at the speed control located on the right-hand side of the downdraft vent.
3. Turn off the power supply to the downdraft vent at the circuit breaker box or fuse box.
4. Allow plenty of time for the downdraft vent to dry naturally. Do not open the downdraft vent to remove the water.

VENT SYSTEM CARE

Surface of Downdraft Vent

To avoid damaging the finish, clean downdraft vent with soap and water. Do not use scouring powder or abrasive solutions.

Exterior Surfaces:
To avoid damage to the exterior surface, do not use steel wool or soap-filled scouring pads.
Always wipe dry to avoid water marks.

Cleaning Method:

• Liquid detergent, soap and water or all-purpose cleanser.
• Wipe with damp soft cloth or nonabrasive sponge, and then rinse with clean water and wipe dry.

NOTE: To avoid damage, do not soak cloth or sponge.

Filters

Frequently remove and clean the filter(s) in the retractable section of the downdraft vent. This will improve the operating efficiency of the downdraft vent system.

To Replace:

1. Remove each filter by pulling the spring release handle and then pulling down the filter.
2. Grease filters should be cleaned using warm water, dishwashing liquid, and a non-abrasive brush.
3. Reinstall the filter by making sure the spring release handles are toward the front. Insert metal grease filter into upper track.
4. Pull the spring release handle down.
5. Push up on metal filter and release handle to latch into place.
6. Repeat steps 1-5 for the other filter.

To Clean:

1. Remove the filter(s) and clean using warm water, dishwashing liquid, and a non-abrasive brush. The downdraft vent will not operate when the filters are not in place.
2. Dry the clean filter(s) and reinstall, making sure that they lock into place.

If Retractable Downdraft Vent Does Not Operate After Clean Filters Have Been Installed:
Push the filter in as far as it will go. When the filter is removed, the microswitch behind the filter is deactivated. This feature will not allow the vent system to operate until the filter is properly installed.
