Caring
for the filters
Do not allow grease and soil to build up
in the grease filters. It will decrease the
exhaust fan efficiency. Remove and clean
grease filters at least once a month. When
you have removed a grease filter or a
charcoal filter remember to replace the filter
before you operate the hood.
NOTE: If your microwave hood combination is
installed to recirculate air, the charcoal filter
(Part No.435941 6) should be installed. The
charcoal filter cannot be cleaned and
should be replaced every 6-l 2 months.
