Model # Serial # 30" GAS Downdraft Cooktop Modules selected at time of purchase. IMPORTANT: Read and save these instructions. Part No. [. . . ] Make sure there is a minimum of 18" of straight vent between the elbows if more than one elbow is used. (Elbows too close together cause excess turbulence that reduces airflow. ) Do Not use a 5" elbow in a 6" or 3-1/4" x 10" system. Instead, use a 5" to 6" transition followed by a 6" elbow, or a 5" to 3-1/4" x 10" elbow transition. Do Not reduce back to 5" system after using 6" or 3-1/4" x 10" fittings. If an alternate wall or roof cap is used, be certain cap size is not reduced and that it has a backdraft damper. Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap. Vent materials needed for installation are not supplied. Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the wall or floor for the exhaust vent. If a joist or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be constructed.

Make sure there is proper clearance within the wall or floor for exhaust vent before making cutouts. 12" minimum (30. 5 cm) 6" round PVC coupling 6" diameter 90° PVC sewer pipe 6" round PVC sewer pipe 6" diameter 90° PVC sewer pipe Tightly pack gravel or sand completely around pipe. 30' (9. 1 m) maximum optional vent arrangement under concrete slab Determine range blower setting. This cooktop is equipped with a dual range blower. It is factory set at "Low" range to be used for equivalent vent length runs of 30 feet (9. 1m) or shorter. If the equivalent vent length exceeds 30 feet (9. 1m), the blower must be shifted to "High" range. Do Not shift to "High" range for runs shorter than 30 feet (9. 1m). Using the "High" range on shorter runs will cause excessive noise and conditioned air loss, and will affect the flame pattern of gas burners. List the number of each piece and length of straight vent you will use. 3-1/4" x 10" 6" round 6" flexible elbow 6" round 45° elbow 2 . 5 ft. (76 cm) Vent system equivalent length 30 feet or less -- blower should be set at "Low" range. Example: blower at Low range 2 ft.

(305 cm) (366cm) (30. 5 cm) (0cm) (701. 5 cm) Equivalent length of 6" round system = 23 ft. 3-1/4" x 10" flat elbow 12 ft. (366 cm) (In this example, blower can be left in "Low" range as set at factory. ) 3-1/4" x 10" 90° elbow 5 ft.
