Charcoal Filter	The Vent Fan
(on some models)	The vent fan has a metal reusable grease filter.
	The vent fan has a metal reusable grease filter.
	Models that recirculate air back into the room also
	use a charcoal filter.
Reusable Grease Filter
(on all models)
	Reusable Grease Filter
	The reusable grease filter traps grease released by
	foods on the cooktop. It also prevents flames from
	foods on the cooktop from damaging the inside of
	the microwave.
	For this reason, the filter must ALWAYS be in place
	when the hood is used. The grease filter should be
	cleaned once a month, or as needed.
	Removing and Cleaning the Filter
	To remove, slide it to the side using the tab.
	Pull it down and out.
	To clean the grease filter, soak it and then swish it
	around in hot water and detergent. Don’t use
	ammonia or ammonia products because it will
	darken the metal. Light brushing can be used to
	remove embedded dirt.
	Rinse, shake and let it dry before replacing.
	To replace, slide the filter in the frame slot at the
	side of the opening. Pull up and in to lock
	into place.
