NSTALLING AND CARING FOR THE FILTERS
Do not allow grease and soil to build up in the
grease filters. It will decrease the exhaust fan
efficiency and could cause a fire. Remove and
clean grease filters at least once a month.
NOTE: If your microwave hood combination is
installed to recirculate air, you should install the
charcoal filter accessory (PN 4393690). The char-
coal filter cannot be cleaned and should be
replaced every 6 to 12 months. To order the filter,
call 1-800-447-6737 and follow the instructions and
telephone prompts you hear.
