PLAN THE WIRING
Interior Blower Installation
1. The Interior Downdraft Blower system draws 4 AMPS and
requires a 120 VAC, 60 Hz circuit.
2. The downdraft has a 2 ft. long power cord with a 3-pronged
plug. Plan to provide a grounded outlet in a location which
will allow the unit's power cord to reach.
IMPORTANT - LOCATION OF ELECTRICAL OUTLET:
If Models VIPR102SS or VIPR102RSS are being installed
in a 30" wide cabinet...
or Models VIPR162SS or VIPR162RSS are being
installed in a 36" wide cabinet...
or Models VIPR182SS or VIPR182RSS are being
installed in a 48" wide cabinet...
...the outlet cannot be located on the back wall of
cabinet.
In these cases, the width of the downdraft covers nearly
the entire width of the back wall of the cabinet. So you
must either:
• mount the electrical box to a side wall or cabinet fl oor
- at least 12 inches from the back wall.
• mount the electrical box to a wall stud behind the
cabinet - where it will not be covered by the downdraft.
Then provide a clearance hole in the back wall of
the
cabinet.
