Filters

The filters should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm detergent solution. Wash more often if your cooking style generates more grease — like frying foods or wok cooking.

Remove filters by pushing it towards the back of power pack and rotating filter downward. Filters are dishwasher safe. Allow filters to dry completely before reinstalling them in the power pack.

Clean all-metal filters in the dishwasher using a non-phosphate detergent. Discoloration of the filters may occur if using phosphate detergent or as a result of local water conditions — but this will not affect filter performance. This discoloration is not covered by the warranty.

Blower(s) Cleaning

Remove the filters in order to access the blower(s). Vacuum blower(s) to clean. Do not immerse in water.
