Cleaning and Maintenance
Maintaining Charcoal Filter (Recirculating Hoods Only)
Replace the charcoal filters every 6 months to 1 year depending on the amount and type of
cooking you do.
To replace, remove the baffle/charcoal filter assembly and slide the charcoal filter out of the
channel and replace with a new one. Do not put the charcoal filters in the dishwasher.
Replacement filters are available through your local Viking Range dealer, or you can call the
Viking Online Store at 1-877-834-8222 or visit vikingrange.com.
For general ventilating use only. DO NOT use to exhaust hazardous or
explosive materials and vapors.
Cleaning Hood Canopy
Finishes in enamel or stainless steel are highly resistant to damage or discoloration due to grease, steam, and
heat—provided that reasonable care is given to the equipment. The following suggestions will help keep your hood
looking new.
1. Do not allow an excessive accumulation of grease. For best results, you should wipe your hood clean with a cloth
dipped in warm, soapy water. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANSERS, STEEL WOOL PADS, OR ABRASIVE CLOTHS.
DO NOT use cleansers that contain chlorides; the chlorides in the cleaner could damage the stainless steel finish. If
you need to scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, first soak the area with hot towels to loosen the
material, then use a wooden or nylon spatula or scraper. DO NOT use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool
to scrape stainless steel.
2. Every 3 months give your hood a thorough cleaning. On painted surfaces, use a new coat of wax. A good wax
cleaner—available at either a grocery or hardware store—will do both jobs at once. On stainless steel surfaces,
use a good stainless steel cleaner and polish.
Do not use a porcelain cleaner or rough abrasive cleaner.
Renewing Enamel Finish
If discoloration occurs, you should thoroughly polish the finish on your hood to renew its gloss and luster and to
remove any grease residue which may have a yellowing effect. Use any good enamel polish, refrigerator polish, or
automotive polish.
Renewing Stainless Steel Finish
Regular cleaning is the best way to assure that your stainless steel finish stays bright and unscratched. Use lemon
oil or stainless steel polish to coat and protect stainless steel.
Cleaning Ductless Venting Chamber (Professional Hoods Only)
