About the exhaustfeature.
Charcoal Filter
The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned. It must be
replaced. Order Part No. WBO2X10776 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.
The charcoal filter should be replaced when it is
noticeably dirty or discolored (usually after 6 to
12 months, depending on hood usage).
Remove 2 grille screws
to remove the grille.
To Remove Charcoal Filter
To remove the charcoal filter, disconnect power
at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel or pull
the plug.
Remove the top grille by removing the 2 screws
that hold it in place and sliding the grille to the left
(opening the door makes grille removal easier).
Slide the filter towards the front of the oven and
remove it.
ToInstall Charcoal Filter
To install a new filter, remove plastic and other
outer wrapping from the new filter.
Insert the filter into the top opening of the oven as
shown. It will rest at an angle on 2 side support tabs
and in front of the right rear tab. Replace the grille
and 2 screws.
