WARNING

RISK OF FIRE

When gas burners are in operation without any cookware placed on them, they can build up a lot of heat. A ventilation appliance installed above the cooker may become damaged or catch fire. Only operate the gas burners with cookware on them.

WARNING

RISK OF FIRE

During simultaneous use of multiple gas burners, a great deal of heat is created. A ventilation device located above it can become damaged or catch fire. Never use two gas burners together at maximum heat for longer than 15 minutes. One large burner with over 17,000 Btu/hr (5 kW) (wok) is equal to the wattage of two gas burners.

WARNING

RISK OF FIRE

Hot oil and fat catch fi re fast. Never leave hot oil and fat unsupervised. Never extinguish a fi re with water. Switch off the cooking position. Suffocate fl ames carefully with a lid, a fi re blanket or similar.

WARNING

RISK OF FIRE

Grease deposits in the grease fi liter can ignite. Clean the grease fi liter at least every two months. Never operate the appliance without the grease fi liter.

WARNING

RISK OF FIRE

Grease deposits in the grease fi lter can catch fi re. Never work with a naked fl ame near the appliance (e.g. fl ambéing). Install the unit near a heat-producing appliance for solid fuels (e.g. wood or coal) only if there is a closed, non-detachable cover. There must be no fl ying sparks.

Burn Prevention

WARNING

RISK OF BURNS

The accessible parts get hot during operation. Never touch hot parts. Keep children away.

Child Safety

WARNING

Be sure the entire appliance has cooled and grease has solidified before attempting to clean any part of the appliance.

Do not use steam cleaners to clean the appliance.

Safe use

WARNING

Do not repair, replace or remove any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in the manuals. Improper installation, service or maintenance can cause injury or property damage. Refer to this manual for guidance. All other servicing should be done by a qualified technician.

WARNING

RISK OF INJURY

Items placed on the appliance may fall down. Do not place any objects on the appliance.

Proper Installation and Maintenance

Have the installer show you the location of the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.

This appliance must be properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. Connect only to properly grounded outlet. Refer to Installation Instructions for details.

This appliance is intended for normal family household use only. It is not approved for outdoor use. See the Statement of Limited Product Warranty. If you have any questions, contact the manufacturer.

Do not store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors, fl immables or non food products in or near this appliance. It is specifically designed for use when heating or cooking food. The use of corrosive chemicals in heating or cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in injury.

Do not operate this appliance if it is not working properly, or if it has been damaged. Contact an authorized servicer. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in this manual. Refer all servicing to a factory authorized service center.

CAUTION

Grease left on filters can melt and move into the vent.

WARNING

Hidden surfaces may have sharp edges. Use caution when reaching behind or under appliance.

WARNING

When the hood is operated in exhaust-air mode simultaneously with a different burner which also makes use of the same chimney (such as gas, oil or coal-fi red heaters, continuous-fl ow heaters, hot-water boilers) care must be taken to ensure that there is an adequate supply of fresh air which will be needed by the burner for combustion.

This can be achieved if combustion air can flow through non-lockable openings, e.g. in doors, windows and via the air-intake/exhaust-air wall box or by other technical measures, such as reciprocal interlocking, etc.

WARNING

Avoid carbon monoxide poisoning – Provide adequate air intake so combustion gases are not drawn back into the room.

An air-intake/exhaust-air wall box by itself is no assurance that the limiting value will not be exceeded.

NOTE: When assessing the overall requirement, the combined ventilation system for the entire household must be taken into consideration. This rule does not apply to the use of cooking appliances, such as cooktops and ovens.

WARNING

While cooking food items, small amounts of certain by-products, such as particulate matter / soot, can be released. To minimize exposure to these substances:

▶ Always ensure proper ventilation by using an appropriate ventilation fan or hood vented to the outside and/or an open window.
▶ Always operate the unit according to the instructions in this manual.

WARNING

Overheated materials can cause fire or burns and may produce potentially harmful smoke or fumes.

▶ To prevent overheating, turn ventilation hood ON when heating grease, fats or frying using medium to high heat settings.
▶ Avoid heating empty pots and pans.
▶ Do not allow pans to boil dry.
- Do not allow aluminum foil, plastic, paper, or cloth to come in contact with a hot surface element, burner, or grate.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

To avoid risk of fire, do not leave the cooktop unattended while in use. Unattended cooking can lead to fire hazards, property damage, and injury. Always supervise cooking, especially when using high heat with oils and fats. Boilovers may cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons, do not use replacement parts that have not been recommended by the manufacturer (e.g. parts made at home using a 3D printer).

Features

The Downdraft Hood takes the place of an overhead hood and can be conveniently hidden away (lowered) when not in use. It has a blower fan that draws the cooking byproducts into the intake housing, through two filters and out of the house or recirculated back into the home with the separate purchase of a recirculation kit.

① Hood Intake Housing
② Removable Front Panel
③ Filters (behind removable front panel)
④ Intake Top Cap
⑤ Intake Up / Down Pushbutton
⑥ Downdraft Hood Control Panel

Hood Intake Housing

The intake housing, when raised, captures and channels the cooking odors, steam and grease from the cooktop through two filters located within the intake housing.

The air is cleaned by the filters and conveyed to the building exterior by a series of pipe ducts.

NOTE: Ventilation may not exit through an already operational smoke or exhaust chimney, nor a duct used for ventilating furnace installation areas.

If the ventilation is intended to pass through a smoke or exhaust that is not in operation, the responsible area heating inspector must give approval.

If the ventilation passes through an external wall, use a telescopic wall sleeve.

Filters

The filtersarelocatedonthebottomoftheintake housing, behind the removable front panel. They condense and trap the grease in the air. Filters include protective filmthatmustberemovedbeforeuse.

Operating the Appliance

Always turn the downdraft blower on before you begin cooking to establish an air flow in the kitchen. Let the blower run for a few minutes to clean the air after you turn the cooktop off. This will keep the whole kitchen cleaner and brighter.

It is recommended to use the rear burners when cooking with tall pots or when the cooking method will generate high amounts of smoke or steam. The combination of using the rear burners and operating the unit at high speed will increase the likelihood that all the smoke and steam will be removed by the downdraft.

RAISE/LOWER off low med high

To Raise the Hood Intake Housing

Press and release the push button switch.

Note: Press the push button switch once to raise the intake housing. All previous control functions will be restored.

To Lower the Hood Intake Housing

STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY

What this Warranty Covers & Who it Applies to

The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances ("Bosch") in this Statement of Limited Product Warranty applies only to the Bosch appliance sold to you ("Product"), provided that the Product was purchased:

• For your normal, household (non-commercial) use, and has in fact at all times only been used for normal household purposes.
• New at retail from a BSH authorized dealer or directly from BSH (not a display, "as is", or previously returned model), and not for resale, or commercial use.
• Within the United States or Canada, and has at all times remained within the country of original purchase.

The warranties stated herein apply to the original purchaser of the product warranted herein and to each succeeding owner of the product purchased for ordinary home use during the term of the warranty.

Please make sure to register your Product; while not necessary to effectuate warranty coverage, it is the best way for Bosch to notify you in the unlikely event of a safety notice or product recall.

How Long the Warranty Lasts

Bosch warrants that the Product is free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of three hundred and sixty-five (365) days from the date of the original delivery. The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the date of the original delivery, and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended, or suspended, for any reason whatsoever. This Product is also warranted to be free from cosmetic defects in material and workmanship (such as scratches of stainless steel, paint/porcelain blemishes, chips, dents, or other damage to the finish) of the Product, for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of delivery or closing date for new construction. This cosmetic warranty excludes slight color variations due to inherent differences in painted and porcelain parts, as well as differences caused by kitchen lighting, product location, or other similar factors. This cosmetic warranty specifically excludes any display, floor, "As Is", or "B" stock appliances.

Repair/Replace as Your Exclusive Remedy

During this warranty period, Bosch or one of its authorized service providers will repair your Product without charge to you (subject to certain limitations stated herein) if your Product proves to have been manufactured with a defect in materials or workmanship. If reasonable attempts to repair the Product have been made without success, then Bosch will replace your Product (upgraded models may be available to you, in Bosch's sole discretion, for an additional charge). Nothing in this warranty requires damaged or defective parts to be replaced with parts of a different type or design than the original part. All removed parts and components shall become the property of Bosch at its sole option. All replaced and/or repaired parts shall assume the identity of the original part for purposes of this warranty and this warranty shall not be extended with respect to such parts. Bosch's sole liability and responsibility hereunder is to repair manufacturer-defective Product only, using a Bosch authorized service provider during normal business hours. For safety and property damage concerns, Bosch highly recommends that you do not attempt to repair the Product yourself, or use a non-authorized service provider; Bosch will have no responsibility or liability for damage resulting from repairs or work performed by a non-authorized service provider. Authorized service providers are those persons or companies that have been specially trained on Bosch products, and who possess, in Bosch's opinion, a superior reputation for customer service and technical ability (note that they are independent entities and are not agents, partners, affiliates or representatives of Bosch). Nevertheless, taking your product to be serviced by a repair shop that is not affiliated with or an authorized dealer of Bosch will not void this warranty. Also, using third-party parts will not void this warranty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bosch will not incur any liability, or have responsibility, for the Product if it is located in a remote area (more than 100 miles from an authorized service provider) or is reasonably inaccessible, hazardous, threatening, or treacherous locale, surroundings, or environment; in any such event, if you request, Bosch would still pay for labor and parts and ship the parts to the nearest authorized service provider, but you would still be fully liable and responsible for any travel time or other special charges by the service company, assuming they agree to make the service call. Further, to the extent you have installed the Product in a difficult-to-access location or have otherwise installed temporary or permanent fixtures that create barriers to accessing or removing the Product, Bosch will not incur any liability for, or have responsibility, for work or costs associated with moving the Product or otherwise creating access to the Product in order to repair or replace it. All such costs shall be your sole responsibility.

Out of Warranty Product

Bosch is under no obligation, at law or otherwise, to provide you with any concessions, including repairs, prorates, or Product replacement, once this warranty has expired.
