Halogen, Induction & Radiant Cooktop Use & Care Manual

The built-in ventilation system removes cooking vapors, odors, smoke and steam from

foods prepared on the cooktop. Regular use of this system will insure a more comfortable

and less humid kitchen which is free of heavy cooking odors and fumes that normally

create a frequent need for cleaning and redecorating.

• The fan control is located at the front of the control panel. To operate the ventilation

system manually+ turn the fan control knob clockwise. The variable speed fan can

be operated at an infinite number of settings.

• Besides using the ventilation system to remove cooking vapors and fumes, itcan 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 pulted over the item will quickly cool )t. Be careful

not to cover the entire air grille.

• The fan can be used to remove strong odors from the kitchen as when chopping

onions near the fan.
