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. Wash metal filters as needed in dishwasher or hot detergent
solution.
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 them in a dishwasher or in a
hot detergent solution. 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 inactivated. This feature will not
allow the vent system to operate until the filter is properly
installed.
