Operating the Appliance
Always turn the downdraft blower on before you begin
cooking to establish an air flow in the kitchen. Let the
blower run for a few minutes to clean the air after you turn
the cooktop off. This will keep the whole kitchen cleaner
and brighter.
It is recommended to use the rear burners when cooking
with tall pots or when the cooking method will generate
high amounts of smoke or steam. The combination of
using the rear burners and operating the unit at high
speed will increase the likelihood that all the smoke and
steam will be removed by the downdraft.
All functions of the Downdraft Hood are controlled with
the control knob on the right side of the top panel.
