Installing the Downdraft Vent in
the Cutout
1. Cut a hole in the cabinet so the ducting can to pass to
the floor/wall for the planned ducting layout. Use the
dimensions on Pgs. 9, 10 to decide the hole center
line locations. If using the 2” x 16” to 3 1/4” x 10” transi-
tion (REMP and ILHSF blower installations), the hole may
need to be enlarged slightly.
2. Gently slide the vent into the rear of the countertop cut-
out with the electrical access panel toward the front.
3. Adjust the anchoring leg height so that the top of the
downdraft vent rests on the counter, then tighten the hex
nuts. Secure the anchoring legs to the cabinet floor with
the provided wood screws.
Adapter Installation: CABP3 Blower
(Optional: MRV3015S, MRV3615S)
1. Remove the front cover so the AERVCAB cabinet
blower adapter can be installed. Remove and retain the
3 wing nuts and 3 flat washers on the front of the unit.
Discard the 3 lock washers (whilch will be replaced). Tilt
the cover out and pull up to remove it.
2. Peel the backing off of some of the foam tape included
with the adapter. Attach it to the right and left flanges.
3. Hold the adapter in front of the opening on the front of
the unit with the adapter’s studs on top and all flanges
closest to the downdraft vent chassis.
4. Slide the adapter’s bottom into the bottom retainer bracket
on the downdraft vent at an angle. Attach the adapter
using the 3 wing nuts and flat washers removed in Step 1
and 3 of the lock washers from the adapter kit.
