Downdraft Ventilation System
The downdraft ventilation system consists of a vent cover, filter 
and vent fan. The downdraft ventilation system removes cooking 
vapors, odors and smoke from foods prepared on the cooktop. 
IMPORTANT: For optimal performance, operate downdraft 
ventilation system with the filter properly installed.
To avoid the buildup of grease, the filter should be cleaned often.
For more information on proper filter placement and cleaning, see 
“Downdraft Ventilation System” in the “General Cleaning” 
section.
To Use:
Turn vent fan knob to LOW, MED (medium) or HIGH. Turn vent fan 
knob to OFF when finished cooking, or when the cooktop is not 
in use.
Home Canning
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface 
cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches. 
This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.
Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking 
area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not 
extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking 
area or element.
Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas, elements or 
surface burners at the same time.
On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners.
For more information, contact your local agricultural 
department. Companies that manufacture home canning 
products can also offer assistance.
Cookware
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface 
cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a 
well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy 
thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. Aluminum and 
copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, 
when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the 
cooktop or grates.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is 
transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has 
the same characteristics as its base material. For example, 
aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the 
properties of aluminum.

characteristics.
