15. USE AND CARE
Grease Filters
The grease filters should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm
detergent solution. Grease filters are dishwasher safe. Wash
more often if our cooking style generates greater grease - like
frying foods or wok cooking.
Remove filters by pushing filters towards the back of hood and
rotating filters downward.
Blower Cleaning
Remove the filters in order to access the blower. Vacuum blower
to clean. Do not immerse in water. Refer to blower instruction
manual for more details.
Grease Rail
The grease rail should be cleaned frequently, especially if baffle
filters are used.
Remove filters, then, disassemble the grease rail from the hood
by removing its 3 retaining screws. See illustration below.
HD0069
Refer to stainless steel cleaning in Hood Cleaning section
below. Once the grease rail is clean and dry, reassemble it to the
hood and reinstall filters.
Hood Cleaning
Stainless steel cleaning: How to maintain its « BRIGHT LOOK »
Do:
- Regularly wash surfaces with clean cloth or rag soaked with
warm water and mild soap or liquid dish detergent.
- Always clean in the direction of original polish lines.
- Always rinse well with clear water (2 or 3 times) after cleaning.
Wipe dry completely.
- You may also use a specialized household stainless steel
cleaner.
Don't:
- Do not use any steel or stainless steel wool or any other scrapers
to remove stubborn dirt.
- Do not use any harsh or abrasive cleansers.
- Do not allow dirt to accumulate.
- Do not let plaster dust or any other construction residues
reach the hood. During construction/renovation, cover the
hood to make sure no dust sticks to stainless steel surface.
Avoid: when choosing a detergent
- Any cleaners that contain bleach will attack stainless steel.
- Any products containing : chloride, fluoride, iodide, bromide
will deteriorate surfaces rapidly.
- Any combustible products used for cleaning such as acetone,
alcohol, ether, benzol, etc., are highly explosive and should
not be used close to a range.
Enamel finish:
Clean with warm water and mild detergent only.
When discoloration occurs, use a good enamel polish such as
automotive polish. (DO NOT use rough abrasive cleaner or
porcelain cleaner.)
16. OPERATION
Always turn ON your hood before you begin cooking in order to
establish an air flow in the kitchen. Let the blower run for a few
minutes to clear the air after you turn off the range. This will help
keep the whole kitchen cleaner and brighter.

to start and stop the blower. When turned on, the blower will
operate at the previous setting of the speed control (item 6 on
picture above).

speed - counterclockwise to increase speed.
HEAT SENTRY™
Your hood is equipped with a HEAT SENTRY™ thermostat.
This thermostat is a device that will turn on or speed up the
blower if it senses excessive heat above the cooking surface.
1) If blower is OFF - it turns blower ON to HIGH speed.
2) If blower is ON at a lower speed setting - it turns blower up
to HIGH speed.
When the temperature level drops to normal, the blower will
return to its original setting.
The HEAT SENTRY™ thermostat can start the blower even if
the hood is turned OFF. When this occurs, it is impossible
to turn the blower OFF with the switch. If you must stop
the blower, do it from the main electrical panel.
