Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning Mesh Filters (DCWH only)
As air passes through the filter, grease particles collect on the stainless steel screen inside the filter. The filters should be examined periodically to assure that all surfaces and parts are clean. This unit is equipped with an alarm. Once the unit has been in operation for 48 hours, the letters “FILT” will appear on the display. The filters can then be
washed in a dishwasher or in a sink with hot, soapy water. Simple periodic cleaning will ensure maximum effectiveness. Do not use caustic detergent to clean the filters. An abrasive or corrosive cleaner may damage the finish. Do not take the filters apart to clean them. It is not necessary and will void the filter warranty. Once the filters have been cleaned and placed back in the hood, the display is canceled by holding the scroll up (+) and the scroll down
