Table ventilation

Rising from the surface, the table ventilation removes vapour and odour while offering dimmable illumination. Able to extract or re-circulate the air it complements many of the 400 series cooktops: gas, flex induction, Teppan Yaki and grill. And once finished, it submerges out of sight.

The Vario downdraft elegantly sits alongside any of the Vario 400 series, including the framed or frameless flex induction options. Particularly useful next to pan-free cooking appliances such as Teppan Yaki and the electric grill, the downdraft also blends in seamlessly when interspersed between flex induction and gas cooktops.

Removing the unwanted at source

Its wide aperture, powerful motors and new inner housing ensures high airflow even at its lowest setting, and minimal noise even at its highest. By activating its automatic function, the private chef can concentrate on creating or entertaining. The hyper-sensitive air quality sensor detects vapours allowing the downdraft to immediately react and adjust the power level. The automatic function uses the lowest power level necessary making it extremely quiet in operation.

Cleaning and maintenance

The internal redesign has improved the maintenance aspect as well. With ergonomic handles for ease of removal of the dual grease filter and tank which can be placed upright on the counter to eliminate contact with grease. The filter can be washed in the dishwasher, the smooth anodised aluminium internal surface is easily wiped clean, ensuring unrivalled hygiene, while its symmetrical shape facilitates easy reinsertion.
