Page 39

The vent fan

•The exhaust fan has 2 metal reusable grease filter.

•A charcoal filter can be used for removing smoke and odors in case the fan is not vented outside.

Grease filters

The metal filters trap grease released by foods on the cooktop. They also prevent flames from foods on the cooktop from damaging the inside of the microwave.

For this reason, the filters must ALWAYS be in place when the vent fan is used. The grease filters should be cleaned once a month, or as needed.

TO REMOVE, slide it to the left (or right) using the tab. Pull it down and out.

TO CLEAN THE GREASE FILTERS, soak and then swish them around in hot water and detergent.

Don’t use ammonia or ammonia products because they will darken the metal.

Light brushing can be used to remove embedded dirt.

Rinse, shake and let them dry before replacing.

TO REPLACE, slide the filters in the frame slot on the left (or right) of the opening. Pull up and to the right (or left) to lock into place.
