Cleaning Baffle Filters

Product Controls/Operation

Fan On/Off switch—Starts and stops the blower. When turned on the blower will operate at the previous setting of the speed control.

Blower speed knob—Turn the knob counterclockwise to decrease the blower speed and clockwise to increase speed. The type of cooking you are doing will dictate the speed of the blower you use.

Light switch—Controls the 50-watt halogen lights located in the front of the hood.

Dimmer knob—Turn the knob clockwise to brighten the halogen lights and counterclockwise to dim the lights. Heat lamp switches—Turn the heat lamps on and off.

Using Outdoor Hoods

As air passes through a baffle filter, grease particles collect on the stainless steel U-shaped baffle channels and drip down into the bottom of the filter. Baffle filters are extremely efficient when compared to mesh filters. The power of the hood is increased as more air passes through a baffle filter than with mesh filters, which are usually dirty. Baffle filters are almost universally required in commercial installations due to their superior ability to capture grease. The baffle filters should be examined periodically to assure that all surfaces and parts are clean. The filters can be washed in a dishwasher or in a sink with hot, soapy water. Simple periodic cleaning will ensure maximum filter effectiveness.

•Do not use caustic detergent to clean the filters. An abrasive or corrosive cleaner may damage the finish.

•Do not take the baffle filters apart to clean them. It is not necessary and will void the filter warranty.

• Outdoor hood models should be installed in a covered

yet non-enclosed area. They should also be protected from

natural elements (such as rain) as much as possible.

• Always turn the outdoor hood on to the “HIGH” position

before lighting the grill.

• Keep the grill canopy closed as much as possible when

cooking so smoke is exhausted from the back of the grill.

This allows for optimum performance of the hood.

• During breezy conditions, outdoor hoods may not perform
