Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before removing filters.
Replace all panels before operating.
Failure to do so can result in death or
electrical shock.
Removing, cleaning, and replacing:
1. Unplug microwave oven or disconnect power.
2. To remove grease filters, slide each filter to the
side. Pull filters downward and push to the other
side. The filter will drop out.
3. To remove the charcoal filters, push the back
of each filter away from you. This will slide the front
of the filter off the lower lip. Swing the front of the
filter down and slide the filter out.
4. This model comes with Dishwasher Safe Grease
Filters. Place the grease filters in an empty dish-
washer and wash. NOTE: Washing these filters with
dirty dishes may cause the filters to trap the parti-
cles from the dishes, so we recommend washing
separately in an empty dishwasher.
5. To replace the charcoal filters, push each filter to
the back of the opening, between the upper and
lower lips against the springs. Swing the front of the
filter up against the upper lip. Slide the filter forward
while pushing it up against the upper lip. The filter
will now be held in position between the lips by the
spring.
