MAINTENANCE

 

Grease Filters

 

The grease filters should be cleaned after

 

every 30 hours of operation. This range hood

 

has an operation timer which will alert you

 

after every 30 hours of use by lighting a red

 

LED above the “blower speed 0-1 button”.

GREASE FILTERS

Use a warm detergent solution. Grease filters

 

are dishwasher safe.

 

To take off the grease filters: at the handle,

push the stop inwards and pull the filters downwards.

Hood Cleaning

Stainless steel is one of the easiest materials to keep clean. Occasional care will help preserve its fine appearance.

Cleaning tips:

Hot water with soap or detergent is all that is usually needed.

Follow all cleaning by rinsing with clear water. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth to avoid water marks.

For discolorations or deposits that persist, use a non-scratching household cleanser or stainless steel polishing powder with a little water and a soft cloth.

For stubborn cases, use a plastic scouring pad or soft bristle brush together with cleaser and water. Rub lightly in direction of polishing lines or "grain" of the stainless finish. Avoid using too much pressure which may mar the surface.

DO NOT allow deposits to remain for long periods of time.

DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface causing rust.

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 cloth.

Painted surfaces should be cleaned with warm water and mild detergent only.

Glass Cleaning

Use a soft cloth and a glass cleaning solution only!

DO NOT use abrasive cloths, steel wool, or scouring pads. DO NOT use strong cleaning solutions or abrasive powders.
