MICROWAVE OVEN CARE

Caring for the filters

The grease filters should be removed and cleaned often, at least once a month.

NOTE: If your microwave hood combination is installed to recirculate air, the charcoal filter (available from your designated service company, Part No. 4359416) should be installed. The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned and should be replaced every 6 to 12 months.

Grease filters:

1.Unplug microwave oven or disconnect power.

2.To remove grease filters, slide each filter to the side. Pull filters downward and push to the other side. The filter will drop out.

3.Soak grease filters in hot water and a mild detergent. Scrub and swish to remove embedded dirt and grease. Rinse well and shake to dry. Do not clean filters with ammonia, corrosive cleaning agents such as lye-based oven cleaners, or place them in a dishwasher. The filters will turn black or could be damaged.

4.To replace grease filters, slide filter in the frame slot on one side of the opening. Push filter upward and push to the other side to lock into place.

5.Plug in microwave oven or reconnect power.

Charcoal filter:

1.Unplug microwave oven or disconnect power.

2.Remove the vent grille mounting screws.

3.Tip the grille forward, then lift out to remove.

4.Lift the back of the charcoal filter. Slide the filter straight out.
