Preparing for installation

Before installing your downdraft vent system:
Please read the instructions carefully.
● ●
Unpack the downdraft unit and place on a flat protected surface.
● ●
Ensure the voltage (V) and the frequency (Hz) indicated on the serial plate match
● ●
the voltage and frequency of the installation site.
Check that the area around the installation area is clear of any electrical cables and
● ●
pipes etc.
Be aware of kitchen cabinets and splash backs in the area of the downdraft vent
● ●
system and the cooktop. Ensure that the area where the downdraft unit rises is free
of obstacles. Also be aware performance may be reduced by strong drafts from
windows or doors etc.
The downdraft unit surfaces can be damaged during installation if grazed or
● ●
knocked by tools. Please take care to protect the surfaces during installation.
Temporarily mark the center of the cooktop according to the information given in
● ●
the 'Installation instructions – Cabinet cutout dimensions' section.
The downdraft unit is installed directly behind the cooktop. For easiest installation,
● ●
install the downdraft vent system first, then the cooktop.
Remove any cardboard packaging from within the blower impeller.
