CARE AND CLEANING
The efficiency of the range hood system depends on the cleanliness of the intake and filters.
The frequency of cleaning depends on the amount and type of cooking.
• Do not use the ventilating system without the filters in place or with grease-laden filters or surfaces.
Filters and drip trays
These hoods have reusable metal grease filters
and drip trays.
The metal filters also help prevent flaming foods
on the cooktop from damaging the inside of the
hood.
For this reason, the metal filters must ALWAYS
be in place when the hood is used.
To Clean Filters and Drip Trays
•The metal filters and drip trays should be
cleaned once a month, or as needed.
•To clean the metal filters 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.
Rinse, shake and let them dry before replacing.
They may also be cleaned in an automatic
dishwasher.
