For optimal operation, clean range hood and all baffle/spacer/filter/oil tunnel/oil container regularly.
***Regular care will help preserve the appearance of the hood.
1.Use only mild soap or detergent solutions. Dry surfaces using soft cloth. DO NOT USE PAPER TOWELS.
2.If hood looks splotchy (stainless steel hood), use a stainless steel cleaner to clean the surface of the hood. Avoid getting cleaning solution onto or into the control panel. Follow directions of the stainless steel cleaner. Caution: Do not leave on too long as this may cause damage to hood finish. Use soft towel to wipe off the cleaning solution, gently rub off any stubborn spots. Use dry soft towel to dry the hood.
3.DO NOT allow deposits to accumulate or remain on the hood.
4.DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface and cause rusting.
5.DO NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain in contact with stainless steel for extended periods. Many of these compounds contain chemicals, which may be harmful. Rinse with water after exposure and wipe dry with a clean lint free cloth.
