Reusable Grease Filters

(on all models)

Reusable Grease

Filters

The reusable grease filters trap grease released by foods on the cooktop. They also prevent flames from foods on the cooktop from damaging the inside of the microwave.

For this reason, the filters must ALWAYS be in place when the hood is used.

The grease filters should be cleaned once a month, or as needed.

Removing and

Cleaning the Filter

To remove, slide them to the side using the tab. Pull them down and out.

To clean the grease filters,

soak them and then swish them around in hot water and detergent. Don’t use ammonia or ammonia products because they will darken the metal. Light brushing can be used to remove embedded dirt.
