  • Page 13 Before cleaning or servicing the hood, disconnect it from the power supply by either removing the fuse, unplugging it from the outlet or man- ually "tripping" the circuit breaker. Warning: Never use abrasive clean- ers, scouring pads, steel wool or caustic (oven) cleaners on the hood.
  • Page 14 The reusable metal grease filters re- move solid particles from the vented kitchen air (grease, dust, etc). The grease filters should be cleaned every 3-4 weeks or whenever the grease filter indicator lights. A dirty filter is a fire hazard. ^ To remove the grease filters press the locking clips in towards the middle of the filter.
  • Page 15 When putting the grease filters back make sure that the locking clips are vis- ible facing down towards the cooking surface. If a filter is incorrectly installed, insert a small screwdriver into the slit along its edge to disengage it from the casing. ^ After returning the grease filters, press the grease filter button for 3 seconds to reset the timer.
  • Page 16 Before changing the light bulbs, dis- connect the hood from the power supply by either removing the fuse, unplugging it, or manually "tripping" the circuit breaker. When in use halogen bulbs become extremely hot, and they can burn your hands. Do not attempt to change the bulbs until they have had sufficient time to cool down.
