Vent Fan
The vent fan has two metal reusable vent filters.
Models that recirculate air back into the room
also use a charcoal filter.
Reusable Vent Filters
The metal filters trap grease released by foods
on the cooktop. They also prevent flames from
foods on the cooktop from damaging the inside
of the oven.
Removing and Cleaning the Filters
To remove, slide them to the rear using the tabs.
Pull down and out.
To clean the vent filters, soak them and then
swish around in hot water and detergent. Don't
use ammonia or ammonia products because
they will darken the metal. Light brushing can be
used to remove embedded dirt.
Charcoal Filter
Sales No. JX8H
Service No. WB02X10956
The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned. It must
be replaced. Order Part No. WB02X10956 from
your GE supplier.
If the model is not vented to the outside, the
air will be recirculated through a disposable
charcoal filter that helps remove smoke and
odors.

1. Unplug the microwave oven.
2. Remove the vent grille mounting screws
3. Slide the grille to left, then lift out to remove
4. Remove the charcoal filter
5. Slide a new charcoal filter into place

To Install the Charcoal Filter
To install a new charcoal filter, remove plastic
and other outer wrapping from the new filter.
For this reason, the filters must always be in
place when the hood is used. The vent filters
should be cleaned once a month, or as needed.
Rinse, shake and let dry before replacing.
To replace, slide the filters into the frame slots
on the back of each opening. Press up and to the
front to lock into place.
Replacement filters: WB02X11534
The charcoal filter should be replaced when it is
noticeably dirty or discolored (usually after 6 to
12 months, depending on usage). See "Optional
Accessories," page 9, for more information.
