WARNING
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY:
Remove house fuse or open circuit breaker
before beginning installation.
Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug
with this appliance. Follow National electrical
codes or prevailing local codes and ordi-
nances.
This downdraft vent must be supplied with
120V, 60Hz., and connected to an individual,
properly grounded branch circuit, protected
by a 15 or 20 ampere circuit breaker or time
delay fuse.
Gas Cooktops
If this vent is installed in combination with a
Monogram gas cooktop, it may operate from
the same duplex outlet.
Electric Cooktops
If this vent is installed in combination with a
Monogram electric cooktop, the vent must
operate from a separate 120V outlet.
• A properly grounded 3-prong receptacle
should be located within reach of the vents’
two foot power cord.
– Locate the receptacle inside the cabinet on
the right side wall. The receptacle cannot be
placed on the back of the cabinet wall where
it may interfere with the downdraft plenum.
See illustration.
IMPORTANT: (Please read carefully).
The power cord of this appliance is equipped
with a three-prong (grounding) plug which
mates with a standard three-prong grounding
wall receptacle to minimize the possibility of
electric shock. The customer should have the
wall receptacle and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the recep-
tacle is properly grounded and has correct
polarity.
• Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle
is encountered, it is the personal responsibil-
ity and obligation of the customer to have it
replaced with a properly grounded three-
prong wall receptacle.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.
