The exhaust hood feature on your microwave oven is equipped with 2 metal filters which collect grease. When the fan is operated, air is drawn up through the filters. Depending on your model, it is either discharged through the provided venting to the outside or drawn through a charcoal filter and recirculated.

CHARCOAL FILTER (on some models)

REUSABLE GREASE FILTERS

(on all models)

Reusable Grease Filters (on all models)

The grease filters should be cleaned at least once a month. Never operate the microwave without the filters in place. In situations where flaming might occur on surfaces below hood, filters will stop the entry of flames into the unit.

To Remove Grease Filter

To remove grease filter, grasp the “finger hold” on the filter and slide to the rear. Then pull filter downward and to the front. The filter will drop out.

To Clean and Replace Grease Filter

To clean grease filter, soak it and then agitate filter in solution of 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.

Rinse, shake and remove moisture before replacing.

To replace grease filter, slide the filter in the frame slot on the back of the opening.

Pull filter upward and to the front to lock into place.

Charcoal Filter (on some models)

Some models are not vented to the outdoors; they recirculate the air instead. These models are equipped with a disposable charcoal filter that helps remove smoke and odors caused by cooking on your range.

The disposable charcoal filter should be replaced when it is noticeably dirty or discolored (usually after 6 to 12 months, depending on hood usage). Order Part No. WB02X9883 from your GE supplier.

DO NOT CLEAN THIS FILTER. DO NOT OPERATE YOUR HOOD WITH”OU-T-ALL 3 FILTERS IN PLACE.
