ENTILATION
The built-in ventilation system removes
cooking vapors, odors and smoke from
foods prepared on your cooktop and grill.
• To operate the
ventilation sys-
tem manually,
push the vent
fan switch lo-
cated in front of the air
grille. Push to the right for high or push to
the left for low.
• The ventilation system will operate au-
tomatically on high when the grill ele-
ment is in use.
• Besides using the ventilation system to
remove cooking vapors and fumes, it can
be used to cool baked pies, cakes or hot
pans.
To cool an item, set it on the air grille and
turn on the fan. The air being pulled over
the item will quickly cool it. Be careful not
to cover the entire air grille.
• The fan can be used to remove strong
odors from the kitchen as when chop-
ping onions near the fan.

• Air Grille: The air grille lifts off easily.
Wipe clean or wash in dishwasher or sink
with mild household detergents. To pre-
vent scratching the surface, do not use
abrasive cleaners or scrubbing pads.
• Filter: Turn off ventilation system before
removing. The filter is a permanent type
and should be cleaned when soiled. Clean
in sink with warm water and detergent or
in dishwasher.

OOKTOP
YSTEM
IMPORTANT: DO NOT OPERATE SYS-
TEM WITHOUT FILTER. Filter should al-
ways be placed at an angle. As you face
the front of the cooktop, the top of the
filter should rest against the left side of
the vent opening. The bottom should
rest against the right side of the vent
chamber at the bottom. (Note: If filter
is flat against the fan wall, ventilation
effectiveness is reduced.)
• Ventilation Chamber: This area, which
houses the filter, should be cleaned in the
event of spills or whenever it becomes
coated with a film of grease. It can be
cleaned with paper towel, damp cloth, or
sponge and mild household detergent or
cleanser.

OWLS
The drip bowls, located under each surface
element, are designed to catch boilovers
and must always be used. Absence of these
bowls during cooking may damage wiring
or other parts underneath the cooktop.
To prevent the risk of electric shock or fire,
never line drip bowls with aluminum foil.
Drip bowls will discolor (blue/gold stains)
over time, if overheated. This discoloration
is permanent. However, it will not affect
cooking performance.
TO PROTECT DRIP BOWL
FINISH:
• Avoid using high heat settings for
long periods of time.
• Do not use oversized cookware.
Pans should not extend more than
1-2 inches beyond the element.
• When home canning, use the Can-
ning Element (Model A145A). To
order call 1-800-688-8408
• Clean frequently. (See cleaning sec-
tion, pages 8-9.)
