CARE AND CLEANING
BAFFLE GREASE FILTERS AND DRIP TRAYS
The metal baffles channel grease released by foods on the
cooktop into the drip trays. The baffles also help prevent
flaming foods on the cooktop from damaging the inside of
the hood.
For this reason, the baffles must ALWAYS be in place
when the hood is used. The grease baffles and drip trays
should be cleaned once a month, or as needed.
To clean the grease baffles and drip trays,
drain and wipe all excess grease with a dry paper towel.
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. To clean hard to reach areas of the filter,
use a soft brush. Rinse, shake and let them dry before
replacing. They may also be cleaned in an automatic
dishwasher.
NOTE: Some discoloration of the filters and grease drip
trays may occur in the dishwasher.
To remove:
Grasp the baffle knobs then pull the baffle down and
towards you.
To replace the drip trays:
1. Place and seat the drip tray into the hood track.
2. Slide them left or right until all trays are side-by-side in
place in the track.
To replace the baffles:
1. Hold the baffle by the knob and place the other end of
the baffle up in the front lip of the hood.
2. Push the back side up in the rear of the hood until it
locks into place.
