How to clean the filters

To clean the filter, soak, then agitate filter in hot detergent solution prepared in the sink. Using ammonia or other alkali will darken the metal. Light brushing can be used to remove embedded dirt. Be careful not to disturb the aluminum fabric of the filter body.

Rinse, shake and remove moisture before replacing. It is advised that filters should be cleaned after every use.

Before replacing the filter into the vent system housing, inspect and wipe clean the housing walls. Do not allow grease accumulation to form.

Never operate the vent system without the filter in place. In situations where flaming might occur, the filter will retard entry of flames into the exhaust blower.

To replace the filter after cleaning, place it on the filter supports. Replace the vent grille.
