Professional Island Range Hood

Baffle grease filters and drip trays

Island hood models have reusable metal grease baffles and drip trays.

The metal baffles channel grease released by foods on the cooktop into the drip trays. The baffles also help prevent flaming foods on the cooktop from damaging the inside of the hood.

For this reason, the baffles must ALWAYS be in place when the hood is used. The grease baffles and drip trays should be cleaned once a month, or as needed.

To clean the grease baffles and drip trays,

drain and wipe all excess grease with a dry paper towel. 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. Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners. Rinse, shake and let them dry before replacing. They may also be cleaned in an automatic dishwasher.

To remove:

Grasp both baffle knobs on each filter and pull them up, forward and out. Grasp the drip tray and carefully lift it up and out of the hood track.

To replace the drip trays:

1.Place and seat the drip tray into the hood track.

2.Slide them left or right until all trays are side-by-side in place in the track.

To replace the baffles:

1.Hold the baffle at the bottom by one of the knobs.

2.Place the other end of the baffle against the inside front of the hood.

3.Slide it up and push the bottom end back until it firmly seats into place.
