Be sure the circuit breaker is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning or servicing any part of the vent hood.
Reusable Metal Grease Filters
The hood has 2 metal reusable grease filters.
The metal filters trap grease released by foods on the
cooktop. They also help prevent flaming foods on the
cooktop from damaging the inside of the hood.
For this reason, the filters must ALWAYS be in place
when the hood is used. The grease filters should be
cleaned once a month, or as needed.
To clean the grease filters, soak them and then swish
them around in hot water and detergent. Don’t use
ammonia or ammonia products because they will darken
the metal. Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners. Light
brushing can be used to remove embedded dirt. Rinse,
shake and let them dry before replacing.
To remove:
Grasp the filter handle and pull it up, forward and out.
To replace:
1. Hold the filter at the
bottom with the handle.
2. Place the top end of the
filter against the inside
front of the hood.
3. Slide it up until it stops
and push the bottom
end back until it snaps
into place.
