Cooking
WARNING
Always disconnect electric power
supply before cleaning and/or servicing unit.
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.
Cleaning
