MAINTENANCE
4.
For optimal operation, clean the range hood, surfaces and filters regularly. Regular care will help preserve
the appearance of the range hood.
SAFETY WARNING: NEVER PUT YOUR HAND INTO THE AREA THAT HOUSES THE FAN.
Cleaning external surfaces
Clean regularly with hot, soapy water and a clean cotton cloth. Do not use corrosive or abrasive detergent
or steel wool/scouring pads, which will scratch and damage the stainless steel surface. For heavier soil,
use liquid degreasing cleaner. Use a stainless steel cleaner to clean the surface of the hood. Avoid getting
cleaning solution onto or into the control panel. Follow directions for the stainless steel cleaner.
CAUTION
Use soft towel to wipe off the cleaning solution, gently rubbing off any stubborn spots. Use dry soft towel to
dry the hood. Always scrub lightly, with a clean cotton cloth and in the direction of the grain.
Do not allow deposits to accumulate or remain on the hood. Do not use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes.
Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface and cause rusting.
Do not allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain in contact with
stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these compounds contain chemicals which may be harmful.
Rinse with water after exposure and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
Cleaning the Grease Filters
The filters should be washed frequently. Clean by hand in soapy water or in the dishwasher. Dry the filters
and re-install. If cleaning the filters in the dishwasher, use a non-phosphate detergent. The use of
detergent with phosphate may cause discoloration of the filters but will not affect their performance. This
discoloration is not covered by the warranty
First, turn off the fan and lights. Let the LED lamp cool. Place the metal filters in dishwasher or in a hot
detergent solution. Allow the filters to dry completely before reinstalling.
1. Remove each filter by pulling on the spring handle, then pulling the filter downward.
