Operation
warning
if the vent intake becomes jammed while being raised
or lowered, immediately press the uP/DoWn key once
to stop the intake motion, then turn off power at the
circuit breaker or fuse box. remove the obstruction,
turn on the power and press the uP/DoWn key to
continue raising or lowering the intake.
important
the direction of travel of the vent intake cannot be
reversed while it is moving. the intake must complete a
full up or down cycle before changing directions.
to operate the rv raised vent system when the vent
intake is in its lowered position, press and release the
uP/DoWn key on the control panel. the intake will take
approximately ten seconds to reach its uppermost posi-
tion, where it will stop.
the blower will turn on automatically and run on the
high speed setting. adjust the blower speed by pressing
and releasing either the meDIum or loW keys. the fan
speed may be changed whenever desired, as long as the
vent intake is in the fully raised position. the blower will
not operate if the intake is in any other position.
turn off the blower in one of two ways: press and release
the oFF key or lower the vent by pressing and releasing
the uP/DoWn key.

Operating Tips:
activate the blower a few minutes before starting to •
cook to establish an airflow pattern in the room.
adjust the fan speed according to the volume and
•
weight of the cooking exhaust.
Reduce the fan speed if the flame on a gas cooktop is
•
being drawn by the vent system. flame drawing is a
normal occurrence with powerful vent systems, espe-
cially when installed with short duct runs.
always raise the vent intake and activate the blower
•
whenever using the cooktop or range.
eliminate air currents in the vent vicinity by shut-
•
ting nearby windows and doors, turning off ceiling
fans and closing adjacent heating and air conditioning
outlets.
place your largest frying pans, skillets and stock pots
•
on the rear burners whenever possible, as the draft is
strongest closest to the vent intake.
Using Delay Off
when the cooking process is complete, use the Delay off
feature to remove any residual smoke and fumes. turn
the Delay off function by pressing the DelaY oFF key
while the raised vent is on. the blower will continue to run
at the selected fan speed for five minutes, then auto-
matically turn off. the vent intake will remain in the fully
raised position after the blower shuts off. the intake may
be lowered by pressing and releasing the uP/DoWn key
at your convenience.
while the blower is operating in Delay off mode, the
blower speed may be adjusted to a different speed by
pressing the HIGH, meDIum or loW keys.
to manually cancel the Delay off function, press and
release the oFF key or the uP/DoWn key. the blower
will shut off and if pressing the uP/DoWn key, the vent
will retract.
Securing the Electronic Keypad
to prevent accidental raising or lowering of the vent,
secure the electronic keypad so that the keys (buttons) do
not function. this feature is especially helpful when young
children are present or when cleaning the vent and sur-
rounding areas.
while the vent is in the fully lowered or fully raised •
position, press and the HIGH and loW keys at the
same time for one second. the electronic controls
will secure and the keys will become inoperative. the
HIGH and loW key indicator lights will illuminate at
the same time when the controls are secured.
to reactivate the controls, press the
• HIGH and loW
keys at the same time for one second. the HIGH and
loW key indicator lights will go out, indicating that
the control panel is active again.
