13. USE AND CARE

Grease Filters

The grease filters should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm detergent solution. Grease filters are dishwasher safe. Wash more often if our cooking style generates greater grease - like frying foods or wok cooking.

Remove filters by pushing filters towards the back of hood and rotating filters downward.

Blower Cleaning

Remove the filters in order to access the blower. Vacuum blower to clean. Do not immerse in water. Refer to blower instruction manual for more details.

Grease Rail

The grease rail should be cleaned frequently, especially if baffle filters are used.

Remove filters, then, disassemble the grease rail from the hood by removing its 3 retaining screws. See illustration beside.

Refer to stainless steel cleaning in Hood Cleaning section below. Once the grease rail is clean and dry, reassemble it to the hood and reinstall filters.
