Install Downdraft System
Determine Equivalent Length of Vent System
This range is equipped with a dual range blower. It is shipped
from the factory for Low Range installations. If vent system
equivalent length exceeds 30 ft (9.1 m), the downdraft blower
motor must be converted to High Range for best performance.
See “Calculating Vent System Length.”
To Convert:
Gently remove the spring loaded Restricter Ring from the blower
inlet by pressing on one of the 3 springs.
Determine which venting method to use: floor, rear wall, or left
side venting. Go to the section for your type of venting.
